If you are looking for a great education in a big city, look no further.  With a large metropolitan area and an expansive campus this is your dream come true.
The teachers I had were willing to help with anything I had questions about.
The dorms were clean and inviting.  I found the RA's to be helpful...

We know it as "the U" around here. It's a Big 10 School and lives up to the name. Tons of new building and additions - such as the science buildings (which goes in hand with its goal of being a top 3 research school) and the new TCF Stadium (although the football team isn't all that great - hopefully...

This is my first year at the University and man... What a transition from an Indian University to this. The leap has just been too high.
I came like all other Indian students, with a dream of making it big in Research and there I am, with exactly what I wanted.
The courses, the Universities, the Professors, the environment everything about this place is excellent (except of course the winter.. But rest assured, you would not die).

I didn't like the University of Minnesota. I was not known as my name, only my student ID #. Classes were too huge (more than 500 students) and too impersonal. Professors and TA's seemed to be giving the same wrot lecture over and over again with no passion for their subject, no desire to delve deep with students and develop that connection to the subject of study.

Great school.  In the middle of everything and well worth the price.  Had heard many good reviews from friends and have had a wonderful time there.  I still have not decided my major but have enjoyed the variety of classes and the professionalism of the professors.  Everything is great and would highly recommend it.
