University of Missouri-Columbia Top Questions

There is a real sense of pride among the students here. They have pride in the varsity athletic teams every year as well as pride in the education they recieve while they're here. When considering other schools the pride the students had on the other campuses didn't compare to the pride I saw in the Missouri students. Also the campus layout and campus atmosphere is very enjoyable.

The campus community is much more inviting than other places I looked at. Whereas I saw simply a place to attend college at other campuses, at Mizzou, I saw a place where I could spend 4 years of my life having a great education experience as well as a comfortable living experience.

There is so much diversity.

I didn't really consider going anywhere else, but from what my friends around the country have told me, Greek Life is really unique here. We have a strong community of greeks, who are much more active when it comes to giving back than other schools. Philanthropy events are all year, and there are major ones like Homecoming, RAMS, and Greek Week that most chapters participate in that all benefit the community.

The reason I chose University of Missouri was for the reputation of the Journalism School. It has one of the best programs in the country.

My school is very spirited. Though there are many events for students, the main events are about school spirit, such as sporting events and pep-rallies. Even when it comes to holidays, everything is decorated and everyone is excited about any event coming up. Even I (I have no interest in sports) get excited about sports, simply because it's a fun atmosphere to be involved in.

Mizzou provides a large school atmosphere in a smaller space. It is not difficult to feel at home in Columbia, where there is a lot to do and plenty of new things to experience. Go Tigers!

All the big school advantages with the personal level of a small school. Classes are great and students get a long very well. The business school is the best I have ever seen. Football season is a blast.

This is the only school in the entire area that has a law school, medical school and veterninary school all located in one area. The location has a teaching medical school that not only hosts a regular hospital but also has a Department of Veterans Affairs Hospital and Children's Hospital. The need to have all these close by only makes this university the top choice when comparing it to other schools in the country.

Mizzou's campus is amazing.

Overall, Mizzou is an awesome place to live and go to school! I've enjoyed it so far!

State schools aren't terrible places to be. There often cheaper and you'll get the same experience at other out-of-state college right here in MO.

Overall I love it at Mizzou!

Nothing else really to say.

Never in a million years did I think I'd go to college in Missouri - now I can't imagine anything else. Go Tigers!

Mizzou is fucking sweet!

i transferred from a huge public school from another state after freshman year beacuse i hated it and if anything id say that unless your a very outgoing person/ very friendly with all people it is really hard to fit in at a huge state school if you dont reside in that state
