The University of Oregon is not only a beautiful campus but offers the kind of liberal arts studies that I prefer. The excitement of living on campus and attending favored sporting events has contributed to my enjoyment at this school. I look forward to finishing my education at U of O.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Get your FAFSA in on time and if you are coming from a different state make sure you get it in by March 1st. My state gave me a different date and my mom is now working double time to pay for my education on her own.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The academic structure is rigorous and requires focus and effort. Teachers are willing to help if you approach them and are sincere in wanting to meet your responsibility for that class. No excuses; just figure out what needs to be done to finish what you started out to do.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
My roommate and I get along so well that we have become good friends. The showers are really bad but I have a great view out my window and am always comfortable. The girls on my floor are quiet and we have not had any problems regarding noise or stealing. I like dorm life and am looking forward to getting my own apartment someday!
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food in the dining hall is good but sometimes a little more variety would be nice. The bottom floor of my dorm has a store and coffee house which is nice when the weather is bad and walking across campus can be challenging.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
I spend time with my friends going out to eat or shopping. My favorite time is during football season and try to make it to each game. I live right across the parking lot from our new basketball arena and go to different events held there, as well.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
There is no sales tax in Oregon.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Walking across to Autzen stadium for football games in a pack. It just makes the excitement that much more fun.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who want a well-rounded education and being in the center of a PAC 12 school. The campus is large and very beautiful with a great deal of history and carries with it its own momentum.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are so many clubs and activities that most interests have been addressed.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
My roomie is a sorority girl and loves it.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
The police have a strong presence on the campus and when class gets out late they emphasize that people, particularly women, walk in pairs. They work 24/7.
