This university has some pros and cons.
PROS.....
1)I disagree with people who say the school does not provide quality education. People who think they just give out A's in this school are usually the ignorant who have not yet reached higher level classes. Of course a 100 level class is easy, you might as well be taking a high school course. But when you get into the higher levels that's when you are really challenged. The biology and chemistry department have helpful teachers who, for the most part, like to provide assistance.
2) The school is inexpensive compared to others.
3) Campus is very safe, I never felt threatened.
CONS.......
1) Although there are a decent amount of extracurricular activities to get involved in, the school is not actually the most "happening" school. But if you make the most of it, and try and get out there, its ok.
2) If you like to go to clubs and like the city scene, Greensboro is not the place. Small town=small clubs. 3) Campus on weekends can get weird. There are a lot of creepy white guys on campus who will hit on anything that is female and has legs and arms. | Perceived Campus Safety: A+, Extracurricular Activities: C+ |  | | |

| Super Brilliant | I hate uncg. I was under the impression that the academics here were reasonably good. unfortunately, anyone who believes this to be true is either stupid or ignorant. i'm not learning at the level that i'm capable of and know that if i graduate from here, i won't even be able to compete for jobs with graduates from unc/ncsu and the like. what a waste of money. | Faculty Accessibility: C-, Useful Schoolwork: F |  | | |

| Super Brilliant |
I loved UNCG. I was in Mary Foust's program now called the Warren Ashby Residential College Program. They really fostered personal growth and helped me turn into a thoughtful adult. Many of my friends went to Chapel Hill, Wake, or Duke. Not only was my education more affordable, I got more one on one interaction and many opportunities my friends at other more competitive colleges did not receive. I was a big fish in a small pond and that made all the difference for me. In a bigger college with less interaction I am sure I would have probably dropped out. I am now about to complete my PhD and would not be in this position without the helpful advisors and faculty/staff at UNCG. My only advice is get involved. Be a part of a student and faculty group! It is easy to get lost in college but the faculty at UNCG is very helpful if you get to know them. | Preparedness: A, Reputation: D |  | |
