I absolutely love the relationship between professors and students. I like the idea of being "friends" with the people that are shaping my future somehow.

The best thing about the university of tulsa is the feeling of ome on campus. When you step foot on TU you feel like your right at home. You have that Urban Ivy league feel at such a small university. This is the best thing about the university of tulsa because whe you leave for college you will miss home but if you choose TU you are at home.

The best thing about my school is the way it is cultivating me as an individual and not just a student. I've never been challenged as much intellectually as I have been since joining TU. I used to have a hard time with being disciplined in my studies, but since joining TU, every form of laziness is now being discarded from life. It also has help me understand that nothing worthwhile is easy, but through hard work is attainable. The 11 to 1 student-faculty ratio also gives me a great experience with each professor I have.

The events put on by Student Association are fantastic. They allow students to meet each other and get to know all the fun things to do on campus.

The best thing about the University of Tulsa are the considerate people who work there who make the transition process from being a high school senior to becoming a college freshman not only managable, but also easy and exciting. If I didn't have as much support from the TU community as I do, being a first generation college-bound student would be a near-impossible task. However, with their wide knowledge and understanding of the university, it has made this experience truly remarkable and entirely rewarding for everyone involved.

The best thing about my school would have to be the atmosphere. TU has such a warm and uplifting atmosphere that it makes everyone feel welcome and like they belong there. The people at my school really want you to succeed, not just acadmecially but as a person and it shows through all the possibilities TU has to offer. TU is a place for adventure, laughter, learning, and memories. And it is very apparent throughout the University.

I believe the student to teacher ratio is amazing. You really get to create a relationship with your teacher because generally classes are no larger than 20-30 students. The classes that actually have 20-30 students are the larger classes. I think it helps the student obtain help and really understand the concept of each class. although, the student has to be willing to create that bond because teachers will not chase you down if you are not seeking for help.

The best thing for me is the fact that I know that TU wants me to succeed. They do so much to make sure that all graduates can walk away with a full time job of their preference. The classes are small enough that you get one on one time with your professors, which for the most part are very helpful and just want the best for you too. TU has recruiters that push you to get out there for prospective employers. We go to college to obtain a career, TU practically ensures that you will graduate with one.

The size of the University of TUlsa is what I consider the best thing. I have always attended small, private schools. I appreciate the small classes, the personalized relationship with the teacher, and the ability to get to meet other students easily. TU has exceeded my expectations about college. I was fearful that I would not get the indivdual attention I was accustomed to. At TU, teachers are more than willing to help you and meet with you. Classes are small and personalized. You can always ask questions and recieve helpful answers.

The community at TU is like none other, and I've visited many schools. Everyone is so friendly - no one has any problem making friends. People you don't know will smile and wave at you on campus. It's a beautiful thing. The professors are just as friendly as the students, too. They're challenging, yes, but they want you to succeed more than anything else. Everyone has a safety net - you'd have to try to fail at TU.
