Though it is located in the DFW area, it is NOT Dallas and it is NOT Fort Worth, so don't expect to be "on the scene" much or to be able to get the most exciting night life out of this University—Arlington is in a DRY (no liquor stores) county for goodness sake! That's not to say that if you look you won't find a bit of a social life, because there certainly is one—but it is limited .. it's kind of a make the best with what you got type of situation … The lack of a football team SUCKS & the limited school spirit is annoying in comparison to some of the surrounding and associated schools like UNT, SMU, UT-Austin, etc … but if your going to school for education, you can find a way to make it work … Greek life is actually pretty good. There are numerous sorority's and fraternity's to join—which creates a social scene of it's own—and they are quite active, probably one of the most active organizations on campus!Other than the limited social scene, you certainly won't be disappointed when you factor in the educational value for your money. The academics are actually fairly good—especially in the engineering department. Money NOT wasted!Living on campus is probably a good economical choice. There is NO public transport—though many citizens and students are TRYING to get something going with the city—so if you don't have a car, your OUT OF LUCK. There are actually some fairly nice apartment choices—on and off campus—and the dorms are nice too. Also, there is a lot of renovation going on at UTA so even more options are springing up! The campus is actually pretty nice and constantly growing so there are no complaints there …Overall, UTA is ALRIGHT. Not the most exciting or pedestrian-friendly city, but it will do for the cost and educational value. |
