I love going to school at the University of New Hampshire at Manchester! It's a smaller campus, but that's one of my favorite things about the school. The size allows the tight-knit community that characterizes our campus to thrive. Additionally, it's very easy to get involved in a variety of ways including clubs and on-campus employment. If you're looking for a school with small class sizes, fulfilling classes, and lots of great restaurants nearby, I recommend the Universit of New Hampshire at Manchester.

I really like UNHM's campus. It is a small campus that actually only consists of one building. It is limited in its lab space but there is everything I need there for my major. Parking can be a bit difficult at times as there are not many spaces for the students. Overall I enjoy the school and all of my teachers are well educated and readily available any time I need to reach them. The tutoring services UNHM offers are also a big plus, I get a free hour of tutoring a week per class and I have already been to a couple sessions.

Micah

I was very displeased with the staff, librarians, and professors. I did not find the community here to be friendly and I felt it was hard to talk to my professors. The user interface on the library website is difficult to use and I ran into many technological problems. Renting out books or movies from the library seemed like an ordeal, the library staff seemed unprofessional and unhelpful. I would also argue the parking is very limited and messy, this campus is in desperate need of more nearby parking. I am shocked by how much UNH Manchester still has to accomplish and I am very pleased to be switching campuses.

It’s okay. It’s a commuter school so not a lot of clubs or anything. They have a little café inside where you can get sandwiches and coffee. It’s very close to elm street though, there are a ton of places to eat there. They used to give you a ymca membership for free but now I think it’s 50{6f65e1278338a62264eed73e2adc5af8e2841420db12ceb4f80b8db22f3260ec} off. There’s 1 dorm with limited space, but plenty of apartments around. I liked the small class sizes, and my professors seemed to really care. I think UNH Manchester is best for people with families or other commitments that would require them to commute

University of New Hampshire at Manchester FAQS

  1. What is the Acceptance Rate at University of New Hampshire at Manchester?

    The fall 2020 acceptance rate for University of New Hampshire at Manchester is 69%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020 , _____ students were offered admission. The number of males who applied was _____ vs the number of females which was _____.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    First you should have at least a part time job so you can pay some towards tuition. College is not high school, it is up to you to go to class but if you choose not to go then you do not get a second chance. College does not warn you of possible failing a grade, you don't pass you do the whole class over again. You pay per credit so if you fail a class you must pay for those credits again and for instance 1 credit equals $200.00 an average class is 3 credits so I suggest not to fail a class. You are an adult and you are expected to act like one, respect others and they shall respect you. College can be very overwhelming but it pays in the long run with the feeling of I am proud of myself for I am acomplishing my dream and no one can take that from me. Always be prepared because it helps you relax. College assumes most of your time only if you want to accomplish what you have set out to do and it is worth it.

  11. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    A student who likes to spend more time partying than studying. All of the students I've met here are in the same boat as me. They're trying to balance work, school, and a social life. The commuter school atmosphere is different in the sense that the students here are more concerned about learning than partying. Also, many of my classes include mothers and fathers who are returning to complete their college education. Their determined attitude rubs off on the younger student body. It's a great experience.
