The University of Alabama - Birmingham

Major: Education (This Major's Salary over time)
Although I made it into my first choice, I decided to go to UAB (my safety) because it was closest to home and offered me the most money. Bad idea. Some of the faculty is very friendly and helpful, most are not. This university is so disorganized. If you go, expect them to lose important forms, forget you paid them already, and expect you to fix it all yourself. In fact, from my experience, expect to fix everything yourself. Residential life last year was hellacious as well. Do not live in Blazer Hall unless you are familiar with your roommate. If you happen to end up with a random drug-addicted, alcoholic who begins prostitution about halfway through the year, nothing will be done. They don't care as long as they're getting your money.
