Oh my gosh, where to begin. The amount of involvement the faculty and student body have for their students is outstanding. CAPS counselors are there, attentive to your needs, and a great resource for other resources within the university. The health center and CAPS both take great care of their students by follow up phone calls and emails to remind you of your next appointment. Miss an appointment? Expect 5 phone calls, a few emails, possibly even a text message, lol. Faculty, unlike other UC professors who only care about research, give time to their students. Yes, attendance is a huge in this school, again unlike other UCs. As far as school work theme, be prepared for quizzes, in class participation, attendance, take home assignments, online at home participation, and exams. Yes, this school is a comprehensive institution, aimed at achieving and producing the top of the line students. Don t take the age of this school or it s high acceptance rate to be any indicator of this schools merit. Go bobcats!

Ps. Not to mention the small class sizes. Gives a private school feel.
