Nevada Industry Excellence Review

UNLV and CSN are both outstanding colleges. Now you have to dedicate yourself if you plan to graduate. I am.happy to have chosen UNLV over NSU that I hear is not that great. UNLV for life baby!!!

Great school, great education. I really enjoyed going here. The professors were a lot of fun and cared about imparting their knowledge to enrich the student's lives.

I'm worried about the quality of the education that UNLV will be providing in the current pandemic.

So far everything has been relatively easy except for a few hiccups. There won't ever be an easy solution for everything but I haven't had any major issues that couldn't be solved in a day.

Also so far most of the teachers have been more outstanding. Always helpful and very PC. To me, they are professionals and act as such.

Great campus! Lots of trees providing many shaded areas. Nice place to walk around with some greenery near Las Vegas Blvd

How to go over there
???

Beautiful campus. Lots of trees. Did not feel like Vegas

UNLV has a highly rated accounting program with an excellent job placement rate. Most of my accounting professors care about their students and taught great classes. My other (nonaccounting) classes were a joke in comparison.

UNLV suspended Southern Nevada s only specialized maternal HIV program without warning to its patients and staff!!! No answers has been provided so far. Poor kids have been literally kicked out of the hospital!

Very community oriented and patriotic.

LAS VEGAS ANNUAL CONFERENCE. AT UNLV I would have to say this conference was the best I have ever attended!! Professors without a lot of time to have some fun and enjoy your work. Here it is LAS VEGAS ANNUAL CONFERENCE. Meet some life long friends and was able to present my research to the world.University of Nevada Las Vegas thanks

Beautiful & peaceful, I graduated from there as a Paralegal

I have been coming here for walks and a coffee, purchased beforehand, to quiet beautiful surroundings during the pandemic.
Very green and well kept grounds. It's a nice option to parks.

The NV National Guard recruiter Sergeant First Class Benites was extremely resourceful and provided information on the educational benefits they have to offer. Which was very helpful for me, thank you!

I had a very lovely time and the staff seemed to have my best interest in mind. delightful experience!

This is how far out my truck sticks even when it's kissing the pillar behind it. School would rather give 6 million dollars to its basketball coach rather than use it repaint larger spaces in their parking garage and to build another parking garage to include more parking. Must pay to do homework online. No one available to answer phones at any department ever. Staff is poorly trained, unprofessional, and not knowledgeable about their departments. Arrogant teachers who will yell at you for something as simple as using your phone. Counselors are always backed up for a month, which could be fixed yet again by redirecting funds, but that doesn't make money... I could go on and on, but I will end with that this is the least accommodating and most poorly run business I've ever paid for. They treat the students like they only want their money, but then don't even treat them like real customers. The only saving grace this school has is that it's clean. Would transfer if I had the money to.

EDIT: Had to change my rating to one star after the campus decided to start citing students for lack of parking permits early this year without notification. Seriously, they have the time to spam us with these stupid Rebel News articles every week, but not enough time to send an email about something that actually matters? They will find any reason to charge you extra fees as long as it makes them money. WORST BUSINESS IN THE CITY!

suck ,always having my Riley over flow,from the time I moved in which was a week after,still lock in lease I just don't think it's fair for me to paying a lot of rent if they do not find the problem ,

Very nice.Absolutely awesome campus.I loved seeing the desert flora displayed around the buildings.The hospitality program is World Class.

Great experience! My dentist is always so nice to me. I always feel welcomed, and they really know what are they doing! Professional and nice. Best thing is you can get the best price in Las Vegas! I went to other dentists, but I feel so lucky I listend to my friend and went to the UNLV dentist!

I love being a patient here. I never have to wait longer than 10 min or so in the waiting room. It's a very clean place with great service. My doctor always lets me know what is going to be done during my visits and gets it done fast and efficient. They let you know how to properly care for your teeth. I would recommend being a patient at the UNLV dental clinic. Great experience.

Great school, professors are nice to talk to, friendly, and able to have a lot opportunity's if you look for them around the campus.

Beautiful campus,fine tier one school, located in a beautiful mountain city

Mmm, hrmm, *ahem* *aggressively clears throat* MMMMMM, okay.

Now, shall we begin?

For the record, I attended UNLV for one year, my freshman year of college. I chose UNLV because they had a good program that I wanted to study (that program being Criminal Justice), and there was a very good job opportunity for me as well, with the school. The truth is, the job was more important in my decision-making than the studies. That's not to say the program wasn't good, I did enjoy the few classes I took. I don't have much experience to say this with certainty, but I believe UNLV's criminal justice program is a good one.

I lived on campus, and actually had the opportunity to experience two dorms, as I was moved buildings in the middle of the year after a dispute with my roommate. I don't have any complaints about the dorms. They seemed well-kept, and the maintenance department did a good job of taking care of anything that needed attention. UNLV doesn't believe in community restrooms (their words, not mine), so in any dorm, you get your bathroom, which is nice I suppose. Living on campus, you're required to have a meal plan, which many groan about, but I didn't hate the food. I also understand I'm a pretty simple guy when it comes to the things I eat, so I routinely enjoyed the crispy chicken sandwiches and had no problems. I'd say the healthier options provided some variety, in that you could always make your own salad with all kinds of fixings, and fruit was also always available. The freshness could be dicey at times, so tread carefully around wilted lettuce, but it's fine most of the time.

I had no issues with the amenities provided to me by the university. When I was going through that room-change process, the housing department made it very easy for me. The university had a lot to offer, I felt.

However, when it came to campus life, I was sorely disappointed. Perhaps my expectations were too high, and perhaps my experience is not representative of the true nature of UNLV, but I think it might be.

Life on campus severely lacked a sense of actual community. Not only that, but I believe that UNLV, and perhaps the city of Las Vegas itself attracts a strange crowd of folks, and those folks, I believe, can be divided into two groups: 1. Locals, who have grown up like this and know nothing else, and 2. people who chose UNLV for Las Vegas. After a year in Las Vegas, I felt extremely isolated, and that could be because I was not like any of the people around me, and was not the kind of person to embrace the partying, live free, no rules kinda culture. That being said, I found the community around me in the dorms, and abroad, to express a "closed-door policy," if you will. Which, if you think about the city, makes sense. It's hotter than hell most months out of the year, so everyone keeps their doors shut to keep the AC in. Consequently, it keeps people out. The locals grow up with it, and the out-of-staters seek it out. I believe UNLV attracts the kind of person who desires to live by the saying "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas," and if you're not about that, the door stays closed.

When I expressed to my friends that I wasn't into drinking and partying, each and everyone one of them stopped being my friend. I was an outcast from that circle, and there was no way I was going to find a more agreeable circle in that desert.

I moved back home and started attending a new university, which I have found to far surpass UNLV in all departments.

Perhaps going to school in Sin City was just not for me, but I will say there are many, many better schools out there than the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Maybe try UNR.

Good school with nowhere to park! I wish it was easier to get to class.

Kind staffs, nice bookstore, reasonable parking fees, diverse races, and good school size. Go Rebel!!!!!!

Crazy that we pay so much yet have to fight for and pay parking. Beautiful campus otherwise.

I'm excited to want to study here. It's my frustrated dream. I hope I can achieve it.

Dr. Jiwon Yoo is the worst doctor that I have ever met in my life.

Go REBELS! UNLV is very big,clean, and has lots of classes.

Nice
Good.

I've been to Ham Concert Hall 6 years now because my twin sons are both in orchestra and band. Highly embarrassing evening that we have to be AFRAID of overambitious and immature isle attendants people working for security. First the front door lady tells us to go up to the left. we go up the stars and the Asian girl says there are no seats upstairs left go way over to the right side upstairs. Ok so we did but I told her she needs to communicate that with the people at the front. VERY disorganised. NEXT we are upstairs in the right... never seen anything like the behavior of an attended and security in my life. First the attendant in the aisle starts yelling at people during the concert at 8:15is to 8:30pm tonight, 4 minutes into one of the songs YELLING at people DURING the performance about the light from people's cell phones instead of saying it quietly as not to disturb meaning she starts yelling AFTER the concert begins and people are trying to hear their kids in which we all have spend THOUSANDS$$$ on our kids to make it this far. NO consideration for the VALUES we have placed in our kids. She lacks serious judgement. 4 minutes into the kids playing, I asked her to be quiet she was that loud. Then she goes and calls security. Apparently Security thought its ok to harass Hispanics and Black people and let White people record with their cell phones as two additional people who security refused to yell at had their cell phones out recording. First of all I am all American. My family has been here from Spain since 1690 and the US wasn't formed until 1776. I am 100% American. I said hey what about that guy with his cell phone. She said "he is not recording" but didn't see he had two aps running at the same time. She must not know anything about smart phones or just highly incapable or just lazy. But the girl working security says in front of everyone about 3 isles of people she is going to call an officer on me when i am trying to watch my sons ALLSATE band performance WOW who does she think she is? Some old white guy in front of me has two aps up recording the performance kept acting like he was playing solitaire DURING the concert and she security would not tell him to put his phone away. Then the security guy she called starts flirting with two girls DURING the concert again we are trying to watch my son in his Jr year who we have put tons of money time and effort and support. I am sitting 4 seats in and I dint know any of the people next to me and she yells from two rows bellow while I am trying to watch my son and she says is going to call an officer?!?! I have a recording of the clip of her saying she is going to call an officer. The girl working security must not know the difference between people watching their son who we have not just put thousands of dollars into playing not just trombone but HONOR BAND and security acted like it was like going to a low class drug infested night club harassed and interrupted us during the concert and started yelling over people. Maybe she is bucking for that security or police chief position at us parents expense. UNLV is sad. Just sad. The acoustics are amazing. The kids played like virtuoso but whoever manages the the people there and security protocol really needs to get a serious clue as to where they are are, Especially since both my twin sons are looking for colleges in anther year and it won't be UNLV. Highly embarrassing evening that we have to be AFRAID of overambitious and immature people working for security.

Every time I call this school I always get someone in a rush to get me off the phone or someone who is rude. Don't bother going there if you don't know where your going because if you ask someone who works there, they will give you wrong information. I'm not sure if they really are stupid or playing a cruel trick. I had set an advising appointment due to I'm a transfer in student. I had no idea where i was supposed to go so i went the academic advising center (no brainer). No. I supposed to go somewhere else and the guy behind the counter directed me to go there. Mind you, its 110 degrees outside; I head in that direction. Something told me that he was wrong after walking and baking in the sun for about 7 min, the buildings looked more like dorms. I then ask a student where i might have to go and he directed me clear across campus. Now my appointment is now 10 min past due so I call the general number to get someone in advising in the liberal arts building. a woman answers and with an attitude directly transferred me somewhere else, no help. so after searching for the number to call on my phone in the hot ass sun, i told the guy that i am on campus but late due to i am lost. Without hesitation the academic advisor canceled the appointment saying I'm too late (its 15 min past due). You would think he would be kind enough to direct me where to go and at least see me since i was walking in the sun for 20 minutes. Very irritating. Please don't have ignorant people working for the school, its a bad representation of what type of people you have assisting others.

First university I visited in the USA. I went there in the evening and a student visited the first building at the entrance, there was a large fitness room, an olympic pool and several basketball courts stacked on several floors. I've never seen that.

For a school that prides itself on student body diversity, UNLV needs to hire more ethnically diverse male and female teachers in the Science, Economics, and Statistics Departments.

The grounds of UNLV are greatly manicured and maintained with high regards.

Nice and welcoming place. Unlike other colleges, there is a lot of students from all over the world which helps you learn a lot about their culture

As a graduate of SDSU and a resident of Las Vegas, i must say in my experience with both, SDSU still dominates. Nicer campus, up and coming with sports, and not hindered by 100 degree weather half the year. However, with a few last words, I will say that UNLV is on the rise and would easily be my second choice.

The teachers here have forgotten what their job is and they attempt to brain wash their students into what political views they have. Shame on UNLV.

Proud to be a rebel ! The campus has stepped up their game year after year. I appreciate I ate the campus security escort services. The student Union has a myriad of restaurants and places to study and socialize. I love the school of hotel management building; incredibly modern.

Beautiful campus, right next to some good and incredibly close to the strip. Kinda cool seeing a campus in the mixture of sin city.

Great school. Great community. If you want to be in Las Vegas UNLV is a great school to attend.

Best University hands down... Nobody caters to you, you have to earn your degree.

Great staff, always pristine. Minutes from the strip, good food, dispensaries, and the airport. The neighborhood leaves something to be desired. But Vegas leaves something to be desired these days.

Incredible University! Thanks to the student services here, I was able to gain a full ride for two bachelor's degrees. The diversity is amazing too!

Best University experience! Explored, learned, and utilized all they gave me in the real world and so far so good if not great. Great alumni groups too so you can always stay in touch with friends and fellow Rebels.

My son Ramon F.M.Stedile was a student at this university and graduated _se. Congratulations to all for the wonderful performance.

I wouldn't give UNLV 5 stars, but it does deserve to be a good school. The teachersand staff care about you. The education is worth the money, and they are not trying to push their liberal agenda down your throat. Common sense prevails. It is all up to you to make the best out of your education. Don't expect fir it to be a breeze.

I love this school. They have great food in the student union and it isn't as big as other universities.

Very Spacious and nice area for evening strolls when we are at the las vegas.

Crowded classes. But the labs for science are great.

Parking is a nightmare here, but the education is good and they are recently going to expand the school of medicine which is excellent

I absolutely love UNLV. I spent 3 years of my educational life and another 2 hanging out at the Ampitheatre and everything is exquisite. I was staying with my mom and in my apartment in #27 across the street at the time. Can't wait to graduate!!

My daughter got karate chopped in the throat by a naturo wannabe

The campus is beautiful. You don't even feel like your in the middle of Las Vegas. Financial Aid, Cashiering and Housing can be hassles, but are easily fixable if your proactive. Parking is only a problem if your chronically late. Otherwise, I feel like a great education can be obtained here.

This university is always implementing new policies. The retention rate is 70% according to FAFSA. To retake a course you have to wait a few weeks before the semester to submit a consent form. There is always a new fee. Financial aid is never available on the phone. The graduate programs frown upon online courses, yet they offer them. Go to an interview or a speaker event and they talk about how online courses are frowned upon. The biology department is the worst. The school is always about money. When a new basketball gym opens up, the tuition goes up. There is never any parking available because of the events that go on in the Thomas & Mack Center. The priority is the money flowing through, not the students. You wonder why Nevada is one of the bottom states for education. The professional schools like Dental, Medical, etc. have a GPA system before you are even considered on the interview list. They pretend to be fair, but that is only true if you know someone that can give you a reference. Even in the interview, the programs already made their choice when they saw your GPA. The next thing is if they like your personality. Then they choose someone who will make their program look fair like an old person or someone international. The interview is just a sense of formality like any other internal transfer in a Hotel & Casino. You have to talk to someone higher up in order to be heard.

This university is heartless!!! After some of our friends were just shot.....After the largest shooting in U.S. history....after we did not sleep....after we did not eat....guess what they tell us via Twitter?! Classes and business will resume as normal! As normal!! No email to my student account. Nothing. This is just as heartbreaking! I can not believe what is going on in this country right now. I can't. I am just paralyzed in disbelief and shock!

Once a Rebel....always a rebel. I just keep coming back!
