Overall, I don't see why this school has all the hype behind it. I don't think the quality of education is especially high. There are very limited funding opportunities (at least in my field). I also feel like some of the faculty are a little full of themselves. Many of the undergraduates seem too nerdy, socially inept, and clueless. Maybe I just misunderstand them? I would have hated to be an undergraduate student here. The students are all friendly and approachable. Socializing with girls is difficult since there are hardly any at this school.On the plus side, there are some very unique classes offered that you may not otherwise be able to take at any other university. The professors do care about their work and their students. It's a decent experience and I wish mine could have been a little better.
