Terrible school give out A's for doing nothing. Average student is dumb as a rock. Also UNM has poor quality professors .UNM Doesn't offer enough classes so it takes longer to graduate. The gym looks worse than third world countries and doesn't allow chalk. Only have a couple of good departments but the average salary of a UNM grad is mid 30's. They don't care about you personally you are just another paycheck that they will milk by raising tuition and assigning 300 dollar textbooks. Went to NMSU for undergrad and the gym was cleaner and open more. It wasn't closed for half the day. They graded harder and professors actually remeber your name. Learned way more from undergrad than my masters. Go elsewhere unless going to med school or nursing. The tuition is double what NMSU is for an MBA program. While there program is just a review of a bachelors in business. Where NMSU requires basic econ, accounting and statistics and teaches an extension rather than review. Worst choice ever to go to UNM.

UNM is an awesome university! I'm currently a junior and throughout my three years here UNM has provided me with a number of opportunities, friends, resources and life skills. The campus is gorgeous, at all times of the year! People on campus are always friendly and there's always a ton going on. Aside from the great atmosphere, the staff and professors are extremely nice and always willing to help. I came here with no major in mind and was able to explore with the help of my advisor until I figured it out. I was able to create the degree that I wanted through the liberal arts program and my focus areas have opened so many doors for me! UNM has also provided me with the opportunity to go on exchange to another University for a whole year at the same price for tuition, amazing! I will always be grateful for the knowledge and skills I've gained as well as all of the amazing friends and colleagues I've made! I truly could not have asked for a better undergrad experience.

The staff at the urgent care were fantastic!! Very polite, listened to me, got me in and out in record time! Explaining everything that I was experiencing, and gave me answers to tests that were done. I would highly recommend UNMH!!

UNM The University of Nothing Much, I have no idea...

UNM The University of Nothing Much, I have no idea why some people post 5 stars for this university, but this has to be one of the worst unversities in America. It may look visually appealing on the outside, but the inside looks like it s deteriorating and moldy. The teachers here are probably one of the only good things about this university as they willing to help. People have already described the administration offices so you have an idea. A lot of classes are ridiculously overpriced. I ve meet students that are very chill and down to earth, but a lot students are rude mean and total douchebags, Especially the female Graduates, simply awful people. The campus location is dangerous as Students always have chance of being victim of a crime (minor or major) as Albuquerque is low key scary.
Nothing to do with the actual university but the sports teams either horrible or okay don t expect much from them. After dealing with faculty offices I have transferred out of UNM and I m now attending the University Oklahoma State I ve made the mistake of attending so you don t have to. Probably the best option for a New Mexico is honestly out of state. DON T GO HERE

They're improving how they do thing's, and today was one of those day's, I took my mom here today because they have to switch out her catheter every month, and her doctor recommended that instead of having it placed inside of her private part, they should place it directly to her bladder, it's a three minute procedure, at first she was hesitant, but I eventually talked her in to getting it done, they made her an appointment in December, I hope that all goes well, God bless you all and stay safe out there!!!

This is a nice small clean campus. The only bad thing is probably the bicycle theft. Even if you use ulock, there's high chance that it might get stolen. Duck pond is one the best places to chill. Architecture building library has the best view of Sandia mountains from campus. If you love to watch full moon, Johnson field is a good place!

Was considering one of their online courses and couldn't get in touch with a single person to answer a simple question about my program of interest. Big red flag. Remember folks, always do your due diligence before applying.

I have great doctors that care and the OTC nurses on the 5th floor are top notch!! This is definitely my hospital of choice. They never make me feel anything but comfort and cared for when I'm there once a month and I love them for it.

My friend is nervous about giving negative reviews...

My friend is nervous about giving negative reviews because the school has threatened legal action, but here goes: she is unable to complete her major because 2 of her classes, which must be taken consecutively and in proper order, were overbooked. When told she would have to wait another semester to take the class and still pay regular tuition she tried to transfer. In addition to this problem, she failed a class because her professor was in court for felony charges and didn't grade her final assignments, as well as the school constantly demanding she make outrageous payments because the school failed to keep track of them in their system. When they refused to accept that she had indeed made said payments on time they gave her a 1-week eviction notice from her dorm. She is trying to transfer but UNM is withholding her transcripts and is trying to charge her an additional $2K for 3 months of housing despite the fact that she had already cleared out and moved out. Legal action was unadvised because of the immense power of the school's legal team, so my friend is now more than a semester behind and all of her college plans are on an undetermined hiatus. While I'm at it, she frequently reported fears for her safety due to the high crime rate in the general area and the campus itself. This school is by all account bad news. Spread the word, spare yourselves.

The University of New Mexico is a unique place to attend college. With a mix of diverse student body and a variety of degree programs in Art, Science, and Medicine, this university has opportunity for any student eager to obtain their degree. The university has a very active student body, and I found interest in several clubs. One of which being the UNM Mountaineering Club which focuses on taking students outdoors without breaking their budget (as they pay for mostly everything!). The campus is located around a variety of great restaurants and coffee shops which are great places to unwind, and finish homework. The campus has a beautiful aesthetic and is very safe to walk through. I have had a great experience here and have met so many influential and kind people, some of which are now very close friends of mine. Go Lobos!

After high school, I had trouble deciding where to go to college. I decided to go to UNM and I am extremely glad I did! When I started, I wasn't sure what I wanted to major in, but the diverse courses available allowed me to find not just one, but TWO majors that I absolutely love! I have had nothing but amazing and passionate professors! The diversity here allows for various perspectives to be heard, which makes for excellent class discussions! I will be starting law school next semester and I definitely feel ready, thanks to the professors and resources available at UNM!

Know where you are going when you go to the UNM campus hospital. The lack of signs makes you think everyone there is on the ninth year of thier 4 year degree and knows where they are going but don't bother to leave signs for others. Even signs to pedestrian exits from the parking garage are non-existent.

I was only there for a final. I never really knew that it was there. But really nice old building inside reminded me of seeing old 1950s and 60s lecture halls. Did not get a chance to browse any halls, but will next semester.

The only large College in Albuquerque so do the lack of competition the quality of their services is lackluster. Tell me what the administration is a nightmare and parking is a headache. If you have the option to take classes somewhere else do it.

this has to be byfar the worst university in the united states, its actually quite disgusting. Teachers take legitimately no responsibility for anything-everything is your fault. I guess it was my mistake believing that perhaps this godforsaken place would hold their students to equal standards as other universities.

It's ok for being an urban campus, some teachers care other could give a crap less. Lucky I got the good professors to make my experience a good one. The only thing I hate so much is the bureaucracy of the place. It's take a long to process stuff that should take a day. Raise tuition so that the ten thousand president earn 100,000+ so they drive around in there BMWs, Porsches, Audis and more. We pay for school not to fund your lavish lifestyle. It's like a kingdom, you either pay taxes or they boot you from the city. They just want money they don't care if you graduate or not. Y'all want to pass, a take BIO 402 topics course- Maggie Werner-Washburne. She will do everything in her power to help you graduate and succeed at UNM. She had the power to make it rain at UNM....not just water but A+s too!!

I rec'd a PhD and post doc work in Psychology's Clinical & Experimental program. Close connections with "CASAA" (research, treatment of addictions). I may assume that other doctoral programs also seek community connections.
I thoroughly enjoyed the great prof's, and many opportunities available PLUS available scholarships and work-study placements. I cannot say enough about my graduate experience (Psychology Dept). Thank you, UNM!!!
Of particular interest to many students include the beauty of the campus itself.
I did not much care for the food court after noticing a two inch cockroach in my bread. Actually, the roach just informed me of his territory. [NOTE: this occurred a long time past, and is NOT meant to represent all vendors.]
However, The Frontier is right across the street and many local eateries make room available for ACTUAL STUDYING!!!
Another advantage for the undergraduates is that some of the core courses for psychology are taught by advanced graduate students. Given the level of competition to gain a spot in the C&E doctoral program, the student-teachers tend to be experienced, very intelligent, energetic, fair, and sometimes use this teaching outlet to de-stress with a bit of humor. Many have prior teaching experience, and ALL must be in good-standing in the dept (B or better). I believe this is a lovely advantage to the undergrads.
There seem to be a plethora of collegiate non-academic activities (I'm a nerd and did not participate in anything that did not include a book & notepad).
And a whole lot more!!!

On Monday I went to UNM Hospital, my back right side was hurting and I could not breathe to good. When you get there, there is one door to get in , and one to get out. If you are going to visit someone you our out of luck, they ask you where you are going to. In my case I was headed to Adult Urgent Care which is now on the 4th floor main hospital. Got there they check me in waiting a few minutes they took my vitals and found out my Oxygen levels were very low. They immediately took me to the emergency room no waiting straight to the back to detox. Waited awhile they are Very busy with so many people being seen. They put me on Oxygen right away. I sat awhile outside then they brought me back in the area they gave me an x-ray and also a Covid test. Went back outside sat there for a bit, and someone came and took me back to my room in the ER. All the rooms are filled i got lucky there was a room. These people are working so hard to take care of everyone I'm very very grateful for the work that they do. I was admitted, about 11pm that night I was taken for a CT scan. I spent the night in the ER. The next morning my nurse came in and took me to my room upstairs in the Women's care section. I had my own room it was very nice. I had a very nice nurse (Tina) who came to work here from Georgia she took really good care of me. I was waiting in anticipation to find out if I was among the thousands to have contacted Covid. Thank God it came back Negative . They said I have an acute respiratory viral infection and more. They wanted to give me another Covid test. Wednesday morning they gave me another test, and people they are not fun. My oxygen levels are still not right so I've been on Oxygen all the time. Later that evening my night nurse also very very nice young lady told me that it was also Negative. The workers at UNM and I'm sure all the hospital are working like (hell) heck for us. So PLEASE have Respect for all the workers and Wear your Masks. For everyone who lost someone I pray for all of you they didn't ask for this and they didn't deserve to die. All we can do is Pray and be safe. Wear your MASKS. Everywhere I go I wear my mask. I was released yesterday, came home on Oxygen and have a journey ahead of me. With the man upstairs I hope I will come out of this.
Remember follow the rules they are there to help You, and give praise to all the essential workers. God Bless.

I am from New Mexico and didn't really think about going out of state, so UNM seemed like my best option. Overall, I think UNM is a pretty good school. Teachers and advisers, are never as helpful as you think and hope they would be. Therefore, I suggest being proactive and taking accountability for making sure you get what you need done in and out of the classroom.

There are plenty of research and scholarship opportunities if you look for them, especially for first-generation, underrepresented, low socioeconomic status students. In particular, the Biology and Environmental Science departments have a lot of helpful staff and provide a few scholarships and research programs. El Centro de la Raza has always been helpful for me, as well (i.e. free printing, study space, scholarships, supportive staff).

During the summer, I went to Harvard for an internship for Biostatistics and was amazingly well-prepared. I thought I was going to struggle, but realized that I received a pretty thorough education. I am grateful for the opportunities and experiences that I have accumulated at UNM and do not regret coming here for my undergraduate.

I am currently a senior about to graduate this May from The University of New Mexico. I love this school and all that it has offered to me during my time. One reason I love this school is they always keep students in mind. For example, today they had a "cuddle a K9" event on the center of campus. This event was provided to the students that may be stressed about upcoming finals and projects due. Especially for students that have left dogs at home, like myself, it is important to have the opportunity to de-stress and get some doggo time. UNM always keeps its students in mind from the variety of resources they provide to the fun campus events they host. I am proud to call myself a Lobo. (Woof woof!)

I ve been going to school at Unm for 5 years now.....

I ve been going to school at Unm for 5 years now.. and I ve finally reached my breaking point.. when I started Unm, I did with the best attitude possible.. I was ready to learn something and more than motivated to do anything and put in as many hours it took to reach my goals in life. After 5 years I really can t tell you anything useful I have learned. And I really wish that was different I want to take something away from going to school and I have waited and waited every single semester hoping I will learn something useful.. and it hasn t came after 5 years.. yes they teach you and most of the teachers here are very good but I haven t took anything that s meaningful or insightful and nothing that makes me career ready. Another downfall is how hard they make this as simple as registering for classes.. it s now going on two weeks that I ve been trying to register for classes but it s one issue after another.. every semester when you go to register for classes they offer very little of classes that you need to take and end up with a schedule of classes that are 1) not very accmodating to your life, and 2)classes you don t even need just to fill up your schedule for financial aid and scholarship requirements... I m so close to having my degree that it would be very dumb to just let it all go.. but this school has defeated me in so many ways

As a student currently attending UNM, I can confidently say that I am satisfied with my decision to come here. UNM has affordable tuition (especially for in-state students). The Bridge to Success and Lottery Scholarships help motivate in-state students to achieve higher grades not only in their high school career, but throughout their college career. There are also many scholarship opportunities for out-of-state students.
I lived in the dorms my sophomore year, and I loved the luxury of being able to roll out of bed and walk straight to class. Plus my roommates were all super friendly and we had a great time!
UNM also has very kind and helpful staff and advisors who want to see you succeed. As someone who was changed their major a handful of times, I can happily say that every advisor I talked to was extremely knowledgeable and excited to help.

Scary staff!!! Ian Drackert, an Academic Advisor, is a very scary person and surprising that he remains on staff with the way he behaves towards women. You know the kind of guy that just makes your skin crawl...this is totally him. Makes inappropriate comments and just all around unprofessional. Run, don't walk, from this sketchy place!!!

"Describe the experience... " let me see... It was like having the opposite of an orgasm whilst being tortured for no reason by a morbidly obese walrus of a dominatrix. Attending this institution was the biggest mistake of my life; worse than smoking.

Nice campus and atmosphere, but trying to get help from someone competent is like pulling teeth. Ran into no end of red tape and bureaucracy - and really fell through the cracks as a transfer student. Really got the impression that the degree programs are designed to take five years starting as a freshman and twice as long transferring in.

I am a CURRENT Econ/Stats student here who would give lower than 1 star if given the option. So let's start with the Pros. Tuition is dirt cheap, especially for in-state students and those with financial aid (you get what you pay for). The landscape is decent and the weather is nice, that's about it. Now for the Cons, staff and administration here are quite clueless and care very little about you or your agenda. The education is not up to par compared to most other universities (again you get what you pay for). The Business school is okay, but I wouldn't recommend it for the MBA since it's a complete repeat of the bachelors degree. I've heard Engineering and Sciences is pretty problematic as well. Wifi is horrible! Liberal bias is through the roof on everything and parking is insane. This institution is a complete reflection of the state of New Mexico, not kidding. If you can get accepted somewhere else and can afford it/go into debt for it then I'd recommend doing so.
