Ashley - 02/22/2017

I was promised a lot when I applied for this school and in the middle of my Sophomore year ,which I am at the end I am transferring. I am going to transfer to a school that is more in line with the medical field. I am in hopes to get more professors who care about their students and are willing to help no matter what the circumstances are.

  10. Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!

    The environment that I currently am surrounded by is of a calm, soothing nature. All the class sizes are very small and every single student matters. I dreaded college and how everyone I talked to told me that the professors didn't care about their students on a personal level. At my college, they do. I always have emailed my professors in regard to my grades or personal situations and they emailed me back. I know for a fact that other colleges lack this priviledge that the University of Great Falls offers. It truly is unique on so many levels.
