Review of University of the Arts

from Trenton, NJ

Describe your college in three sentences.

The University of the Arts is a place where unique students come together to create a diverse and fun place to grow in your artistic field of study. Visual artists and performing artists collaborate and interact on a daily basis which creates a thriving environment for the arts. UArts is an awesome school where talented individuals expand in the great center city of Philadelphia.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Get involved, get out and meet everyone. Connections are important. Go to class, that's where you learn and grow. And most importantly, be yourself! Your art is unique so don't give up.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

They keep you on your toes! Most projects you have a range of flexibility where you can determine how complex it will be... whether you like a challenge or keep it easy is up to you.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Apartment-style dorm life. Spacious and nice!

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Not the best, but tolerable. But you're surrounded by endless food options in the city!

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Go to parks, go to the river, go to First Friday art exhibits, go to the museum, explore the city with friends, make art with friends.
