as previous posts stated, this is an excellent U for nursing and arch. students. maybe one of the best in TX. I certainly thought so when I was a nursing major. But once I changed my major I was unimpressed with what the school had to offer.

IF you are into becoming a leader this is a perfect place! You have the op. to immediately lead people. as a sophomore I was on the executive board of a major campus organization. I've learned a lot.

THE PEOPLE: It was difficult for me to find friends. I am shy but by becoming a student leader, gave me more exposure to more people. I kind of gave up on looking for friends and became more comfortable with being by myself, speaking randomly to the many people I work/ live with. My room mate and I shared a special bond.

I stayed in a dorm 2 years. Highly suggest it.

SMART KIDS: IF you want a challenge PLEASE PLEASE join the honor's college! You can conduct your own research. There are many bright students and you only need a 3.2 to get in. possibilities to stand out as a student are endless because unfortunately many students are not going to go the extra mile.

**Why I'm transfering: I'm no longer a nursing major. I found the campus somewhat depressing, as many students transfered to uta because their grades fell. AND I wanted a bigger/true(er) college experience. as many students are commuters and seem a little scared to talk to one another (perhaps I'm bias b/c I am shy) I like to play with people and I had a few joking buddies. so that was positive.

Overall I got a great opp. at UTA and look forward to my next U.

Wow that really helped me understand what the university is about

I'm shy too, well kind of, but when it comes to a new school where I'm not familiar with I most likely will be by myself and not be able to find anybody to hang out with. I don't know how things are going to go once I transfer there un less I do good this semester and might end up changing my mind and go somewhere else instead.
