University of Memphis

Is Memphis the best university in America? Probably not — but I feel as though it often can get a negative reputation. I’m not sure that’s fair. This is my senior year at the school and I am a Marketing Major. I’ve never really gotten involved on campus, as I live about 40 minutes away; so I can’t speak to campus life. But the school itself? I think is good. Most professors I have had have been great. Of course, there are exceptions, but by and large the faculty is high-​quality. I believe every school experience comes down to the student anyway. You can get any kind of quality of education you want depending on how dedicated you will be. The University of Memphis is a great option for any student at any level. The business program is as good as I could have asked, and I’m glad I chose this university.

I’m giving this rating based on the campus as a whole and not individual buildings, professors, or classes. I am a 28 year old new student to this campus. This is the 3^rd time I’ve been in school at a college campus, and I have to say that every day I’m a little more impressed than the last. Granted, there are plenty of things that UofM has to work on, including their organizational skills, but the campus is gorgeous and well set up, and the ‘upper managment’ staff of this school are highly involved with the students and the campus. To be perfectly honest, I wish that I had considered University of Memphis when I was looking at colleges fresh out of high school ten years ago. I don’t know if they were as good then as they are now, but I’d definitely recommend the campus to new students. Now, don’t go getting your knickers in a wad, though, if you get a bad professor or have a terrible experience with Financial Aid… I’m just saying that the school as a whole is up to standards and, aside from the occasional disappointment/​setback, they really shine.
