I am excited to begin my education in Political Science at what I understand to be an extremely well-balanced institution. While a common concern of Political Science classes is that a professors bias will directly influence what a student learns, it is my understanding that the University of Kansas' Political Science department prides itself on giving students the information they require for further education and careers in Law and Government rather than personal opinions.
Will enjoy being here
A beautiful campus with a bustling student life. The University of Kansas not only has one of the more solid academic programs in the state, but is settled in a town with an incredible downtown and numerous social opportunities, varying from a strong sports program (especially basketball) to an amazing variety of live music.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
A little more expensive than Kansas State University, but exceptionally reasonable on the national level. Tuition (not including room and board) is right at the national average presented by the College Board's website. KU provides numerous student services for the tuition fees that make it well worth the cost, including a newly renovated Rec Center, free access to city-wide bus transportation, as well as on-campus transport, and many social opportunities, such as Hawk Week, which includes a free concert.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Make sure to visit the campus. While beautiful, it does have numerous large hills that may make getting to class every day difficult for some.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
The University of Kansas is great for Pre-Med students; their Medical school is one of the best in Kansas. It is also great for students interested in a variety of arts.
