I love the classes and my teachers. Its really cool to be in such a diverse environment.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Honestly, I had the most horrific experiences with my roommates and the housing here. The Office of Student Housing is awful. They are not helpful and they don't have an effective system in place. If you have any problems with your roommates, the school says they have resources but... I have not had good experiences with them. I've been in contact with the Dean of Students and the Director of Student Housing and neither of them have done much to help me. To read more about my experiences I have a UMB Blog at http://blogs.umb.edu/emilylevin002/
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
The cost is low but paying for an apartment can get pretty pricey.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE GOING TO RENT AN APARTMENT. So many things can go wrong. And you won't get ANY help from the school. Even if they assure you that they will help you, take it from someone who's been there and done that.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Still living with their parents or adults going back to school
