The degree was a waste. I wish I had used the money to go to a trade school instead. The UNH reputation isn't nearly as strong as you probably think it is. If I had it again I would look at their placement rates (UNH WSBE MBA is somewhere below 50% I believe) before signing up. Talk is cheap, being unemployed with few prospects is expensive. Choose wisely

It is a relatively good school. Engineering and Business are the two of the top programs in the country, especially business. Sports are very good especially hockey and football. Food is very good. A huge party school...hard to become good friends with people if you don't party. A lot of things always going on and things to do on and off campus. Beach is close by in Hampton and in Maine...Portsmouth is probably the nicest close city with TONS to see and do. I would say that the only problem I have with the school is the notoriety of the obnoxious greek life, engineering professors and advisors are dicks and there is too many massholes. Like 50% of the students are from New England with most being from NH and then Mass and there is a big difference between Mass people and the rest of New Englanders. To sum it up real quick, Mainers and New Hampshireites are cool and relaxed and humble, Vermonters are typically hippies and farmer people, Connecticut people are usually NY fans and rich and you will be lucky to meet a Rhode Islander. And then the Massholes literally dress like jersey shore people, have to wear the timberland boots with sweatpants and gold chains and wifebeaters. Also they wear sunglasses in class and at night, sometimes driving. The girls are typically "daddy's girls" who drive around in BMWs and are rich and are total loudmouth bitches while the NH and ME girls are down to earth, quiet girls. Now obviously not every single person from Mass is like this or not everyone from Vermont is hippie and a farmer and not every person from ME and NH is cool and laidback but I promise you, I really promise you that it is very easy to tell and you will know what I mean if you go here. Really the only problem with UNH is that they allow Mass people in.

I honestly don't want to bash this school because my international affairs courses were good and so were my German courses. However, social life is important to any college student. The problem I have with this school lies within the people. If you are remotely different from the typical hoe/bro you won't have an easy time making friends. People here are air headed and don't really care about their education minus those except few. I've met about 2 people here that i think I will actually miss when I transfer. The rest, I couldn't give a fuck. Don't get me wrong there are a handful of good people on this campus but finding that connect most people look for in friends is incredibly hard if partying isn't your priority. Overall, this school seemed like a bit of a joke. I should have looked further into it before having spent my money here. P.s. sorry about the horrible grammar mistakes. I'm writing this from a phone.
