Your impression of UNT is going to vary depending on many factors, including your department, your ability to do research on classes and programs, and your aggressiveness when it comes to paperwork, dealing with offices, getting things done. Everybody's experience will be very different. This is a huge university, so expect there to be many careless students and bad faculty. It's true that some freshman classes contain 500 students, but some contain 15. I would highly recommend visiting with upper-class students in the department and going to ratemyprofs to make sure that you get a good professor. When signing up online (they have a GREAT student center online!) you can see who teaches the class and how many students may enroll. I asked around and all of my professors for International Studies (mostly Political Science and History courses) have been amazing. No busy work, I learned a great deal, class sizes were small, they were really there for me! I love the foreign language department even more, I haven't found a French instructor that I haven't liked. The department is willing to work with you and get you in to classes that are already full. Class sizes are more than reasonable!UNT offers amazing online classes. This university rocks when it comes to incorporating multimedia in with school work.I am now working on my master's for Library/Information Science. I love the little community and the college of lib/info science is very helpful.I have had many students jobs here… all amazing! They are easy to come by!Financial aid is SO GENEROUS. Every semester I have had my tuition and books completely paid for. They get a lot of government and state grants, apparently. Many of my friends whose parents make a decent, average income get about half or more of their expenses paid. You get extra if you keep a 3.0 or higher (not difficult).Parking is terrible, the campus is only so-so when it comes to being aesthetically pleasing. The campus is very small and you can walk across it in fifteen minutes, though, and the bus system is superb.My only complaint is Denton itself. Seriously, what is up with this crappy town? The good thing is, there are a lot of campus activities.Can't comment on athletics, not my deal.My advice is to be self-motivated, research your department and major and be aggressive if something goes wrong. Yes, it is a large university and you will get lost in a sea of students if you don't take care of yourself. However, I have loved my departments (except Journalism, which is why I got out).UNT has provided me with a good, affordable education. They have provided me with work experience and are helping with job placement. They facilitate procedures by offering online options but you must be self-motivated. If you want someone to hold your hand and baby you through every step then you might want to shell out some dough to afford a small, private college. |
