UMaine is a great school. Nearly every professor I had while working on my degree here was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. My personal experience was with Engineering, which isn't a walk in the park by any means, but succeeding here lends itself to feeling extremely satisfied due to amount of support given to the students by the faculty.

Campus is very nice and expansive, and is great to walk around on all times of the year (though, bundle up if it's the winter - Orono can get very cold!). It always feels lively, and there's always a ton of things going on that you can get involved with.

Dining can be a bit of a mixed bag sometimes, but it's not bad by any means.

Some of the buildings are fairly old, but from what I've seen, heard, and read both during my time there and since I graduated, they appear to be slowly modernizing the worst offenders across the campus.

All-in-all, going to UMaine was a great experience. The community is great, the education is superb, and it's an all-around great choice if you're considering to go here.
