Austin has already influenced me in numerous ways...just the feeling
to being in the midst of a large city atmosphere
motives me as a student to one day be a
professional in the real world. The quality and credibility
of the university is astonishing...people know about UT and people
give it respect (sometimes even more than it should get).
The social life here in Austin and here on
campus is completely different than the suburb that I grew
up in...There’s always events planned, the Greek life is well-developed,
and the amount of extra-curricular activities is downright overwhelming.
The funding that the individual schools provide towards development and
graduate studies is among the elite in the nation, and
technology is everywhere on campus. The sports teams are
among the best in the country...Hook 'Em Horns...and school spirit
is high, but not to the insane point of some
rival schools (some school in college station). Some people
might say that UT is “liberal”, but I personally am
pretty conservative and I have absolutely no problems getting along
with anyone here. Now I know this all sounds
great, but there are a couple of things that need
attention at the university. First of all, the on-campus
parking situation is out of control. My parking garage,
which is within walking distance, was $616 for the year.
That’s outrageous...Another complaint would be that our school doesn't
improve in the US News rankings because of the state's
Top 10% rule. The rule is justifiable by all
accounts, but it gives our university a bad wrap among
the others in the nation. All in all, for the
wonderful atmosphere, the friendly people, the great social life, and
one of the best educations out there, The University of
Texas at Austin would be my top recommendation to anyone,
not to mention it is the best “bang for your
buck”.
