The marine science courses are very good, the campus is very close to the coast. The campus is also home to some farms for the animal science majors.

The University of Rhode Island is an amazing place, with its famous faculty and its its highly acredited degrees. The main reason that i like it so much however, is due to its distance. It is a quite a distance away from the city, but is also near enough that i can go visit my family when ever I want. Also unlike other colleges that are situated in urban cities, URI is in a nice quiet suburban area which I like alot.

The unique thing about my school is that it has the Talent Development Program. It is a program for student who without their scholarships or assistance with school, minority students would not be able to attend the Unviersity. It also supports its students during a summer session along with a counselor and tutors that each studnet gets to maintain thier GPA while attending the univeristy.

Although the University of Rhode Island is a fairly large school, students often are able to connect with smaller groups and communities. There are many oppotunities for research and growth in different fields. Students often have a sense of the 'bigger picture' and always strive to make our world a better place through higher education.

It was close to home and cheaper than other options. The education-to-price ratio seemed correct for my needs.

The University of Rhode Island has an incredible library of historical garments that have been donated by families in the area.

The University of Rhode Island is a school where 61{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the students are residents of Rhode Island. I myself am from Rhode Island also. This is a unique quality that most people think isn't a good. "It's like a second high school!" "Don't you want to meet new people?"--a couple of complaints that I hear. If you're shy like me, you appreciate having a few friendly faces when placed in a new environment. I never had to worry about being the awkward kid eating alone because I hadn't made any friends yet.

This school offers a lot more than others when it comes to extra-curricular activites, internships, social life, and events in general. The professors are very intelligent in their fields and most are always willing to help when needed. The school spirit at URI is insane, everyone is always involved with the sports events. But more importantly, the Computer Science program at URI is excellent.
