University of Alabama at Birmingham

The University of Alabama at Birmingham has many tools to help students succeed in their classes. Many of the science and courses have sessions every week to discuss the lectures. Students are able to ask questions and get answers from students who have taken the class before and have done well.
The professors are always willing to take the time to help their students when they ask for help. The professors always seem to care about the success of each student in their classes. Many give advice the first day of school on ways to keep up in class and tips on studying for their specific subjects.

If you're interested in the medical field, then this is the place for you. UAB has several resources that can help you get a head start on your career in no time. I have learned a lot from the professors here. They are very helpful and are willing to assist in any way that they can so that you can succeed, whether it is during class, office hours or even outside of class.

The University of Alabama at Birmingham is a great college! I am a freshman here, and have just finished my first semester. I couldn't have expected a better experience! UAB offers many programs and organizations to help you switch from a high school setting to a college setting. Although the two are very different, you don't have to be nervous! UAB makes sure you are enjoying your new college life.

This college has a lot of good professors to offer. So far I have no complaints about the teachers, they have all been fair so far and are concerned about my succeeding in their courses.

I'm learning a lot here at UAB. I'm only a freshman and this is my second semester, but the professors that I've had have all been wonderful and the material they taught was interesting. I really believe that you'll learn as much as you want to learn and I'm sure making the most out of my education. The advisors help a lot with recommending the classes that you should take. Over all I can't complain about my school, its perfect.

I am amazed at how much I have learned so far and I only have one semester completed. In addition to all that I learned in my coursework – Chemistry, English Comp, Pre-Calculus Trig, Psychology, and Public Health – I have learned so much outside of the classroom. I have meet people from different cultures and countries and with different beliefs. I learned how different and at the same time how similar they are to me. I have learned that I can’t wait until the last minute to start studying for a test like I could when I was in high school! I have learned to try not to get caught up in everything that goes on every single day. There is always something going on in the dorm and in every other part of campus. I learned that I need to stay focused on school work while still participating in the fun stuff. I have learned how to get involved, while still making time for fun and meeting new friends. I have learned that you don’t wash white clothes with anything red!

As a student enrolled in the University Honors Program (UHP), I will be replacing the traditional required core courses with what the university calls interdisciplinary seminars in order to prevent students from simply sitting through the same courses they have been taking since the 1st grade. I think that this really helps students understand the subject better in relation to their respective majors .

This is the place to learn if you're in the medical field

UAB is a school of excellent. The one thing you won't find here is a professor just giving you a grade. They have high expectations with little room for excuses.

Coming from a different high school system in Washington DC, UAB has reinforced many of the things I have learned in high school. The curriculum is tailored to your specific major, and the professors are great overall!
