Overall, I like being here.

Pros-

  • Austin is a great city. Got everything - music, parks, hills, lakes, clubs, bars, malls, etc.
  • There is a huge selection/variety of classes. Want to take Urdu? It's here.
  • Lots of people to make friends with, parties, etc.
  • It's a good school. Academically it is a very well rated college.
  • Overall good environment. In general the people here are friendly and open.
  • Cons:

  • Texas is HOT. The weather is annoying sometimes.
  • Sometimes it's way too crowded. And there are a lot of 100+ people classes. Like most of them. So it's hard to get to know your prof, and most don't really care about your individual grades.
  • Housing. Only like a few percentage gets into dorms and apartments near campus can be expensive.
  • Parking - there is like almost NO PARKING on campus during the weekdays. So don't even think about driving to school. [Take the bus]
  • Ask a Question or add a response!
