University of Northern Colorado Top Questions

The University of Northern Colorado has a great business and nursing program. I benefit from the nursing program because the biology and chemistry professors are great strong educators. The intermural sports are also unique at this school because students encourage their peers to join and stay active while getting a break from all the studying. I have met the majority of my friends at college through intermural sports and it has given me the oppurtunity to experience one of the best things in college.

It is a smaller school and really gives the students the upper hand in learning. The learning environment is excellent, the classes are small and the professors are willing to help their students. The campus is pretty, and compact enough to easily get around. They also are allowing me to easily double major where other colleges would not.

The cost of attendance, although still expensive, is alot less than other major universities in Colorado. Also, the business school is excellent, and for those looking into nursing or teaching it has great programs as well.

I liked the size of my school, the fact that it is one of the best for education, as well as the library is large with useful information. One of the best things about my school, is they really care. I have met several times with my academic advisors, and RA, to make sure I am on track and doing well. I like the fact that when I came to observe i was able to meet with adults, an academic advisor and an admission advisor, to see how well I was matched with the school.

The size of this college is perfect because it wasn't huge like CU boulder and wasn't as small as Metro.

There are a couple unique aspects to the University of Northern Coloradon for me personally. I looked at other colleges which had more people attending but I really love the more small town and closer relationships that I can form because of the size. Also unique to UNC is the student layout; we are very diverse in the student population and so we are unique in the cultural flare of the college. Beyond that, one more unique aspect is the student engagement and envolvement which has exceeded my expectation for the past year and a half.

The campus has a really good feel. Also the community in the dorms is amazing the RA's really work to create a community so that everyone feels included so that made the transition to college a lot better.

Something that still amazes me about the University of Northern Colorado is it's small community. The school was small enough that my professors knew me and knew my potential. I was able to work closer with classmates as most of us moved together throughout our degrees. I enjoyed having a group to help with the transition to college, the courses and the life outside of school. We were about to create a tight college community.

University of Northern colorado wasn't as big as some of the other schools i looked at. The setup of it was different as well it was spread out but not too far apart.

The school I am attending has a knack for producing top notch teachers. I am a Music Education major and the more I travel through Colorado, the more I begin to realize that a huge percentage of the teachers for all subjects that are teaching at a Colorado school graduated from UNC. The University of Northern Colorado is not even specifically a Teacher's School, but they constantly produce quality graduates.
