I debated transferring out after my first semester, as the city was a big change from the small town I had grown up in, but once you get the hang of everything, it's really a great school. It's big. Really really huge. Lectures are big at first - my chem lectures are always around 300 people. You get used to it, and the accompanying labs/discussions are always smaller. There are buses to circulate people around campus in the colder months, as well as city buses, so don't worry about getting around campus. And even in this huge campus, I see people I know from class or the dorms all the time walking around. That being said, unless you make an effort to get to know people, you probably won't make tons of friends in classes or elsewhere.There is literally an endless amount of things to do in the Twin Cities if you look for it. Secretsofthecity.com or vita.mn is a great place to keep up on stuff happening around the cities. Anyone who tells you there isn't anything to do here is LYING! Minneapolis is an amazing city, and it's one of the biggest perks about going to school here.The bio program is amazing. It's mostly located on the St. Paul campus, which is way smaller than the main Minneapolis campus. I love it, as if feels like a smaller college in the middle of the big 10 school that I love. When I was in the college of liberal arts, my advisers were NO help…AT ALL. But after transferring into the bio program, my advisers have been so nice and helpful, and I really can't say enough. There are tons of research opportunities here, and the biology faculty are engaging and great teachers. (At least all the ones I have had.)So, yeah. It's a great school. Be prepared to take care of yourself, as no one is going to do it for you, but if you can manage that, you'll do great. |
