A person dedicated to their education should go to URI. If you're looking for a school that's centered on partying, URI isn't it.

The hard work the school did has paid off, attracting more serious students with competitive programs such as Pharmacy (which I am fortunate to be a part of).

In my opinion, I beleive my school is perfect for anyone who is open-minded, friendly, ready to be academically challenged and environmentally challenged. If a person is all about partying they can still come here but they'll be getting the wrong experience.

The perfect person to attent URI in my opinion is someone who is very out going and very democratic. This person should also have alot of school spirit and enjoy some sort of "Greek" life. The perfect person for URI should also enjoy being set in the "country" but also being able to drive 20 minutes and be in the "city."

Someone who wants to be well rounded

Someone who's willing to work, but also has the ability to entertain themselves. You need to be focused and yet willing to go with the flow. Socially outgoing, but okay with being left alone. And you definately need to be able to drive yourself around. Otherwise you're landlocked.

A person who is eager to meet more people and in search of answers. They will not spoon feed you here. You need to make your own path and be willing to do whatever it takes to get there.

The ideal person for URI is someone who wants balance in their life. All the academic programs are strong and can be time consuming, but the social life also takes up plenty of time for outgoing people. URI is a dry campus, so most partying takes place off campus, usually at someone's house or at nearby bars. Many beaches are also minutes away, but unfortunately they can only be used in September and late April/early May, due to cold winters. Involvement at URI is strongly encouraged, and those who focus will be successful in their major and career.

URI is a very open-minded university that really values diversity and tries to erase any stereotypes or prejudices from their students' minds. I think any type of person could fit in and find their own at this university; whether it is a peppy sorority girl, a jock, a total hippie, or a shy, kind person. URI really helps to broaden a person's outlook on life and the social group they're used to belonging to.

Someone who is comfortable being in the country not in a big city. There is not a lot to do on weekends on campus, so they would have to drive somewhere if they want something to do off campus. Providence is right nearby and the ocean is 15 minutes away so you can always find something fun to do.
