If you are looking for an education in an urban setting, than UNO will probably be to your liking. UNO is largely commuter (most students live off campus) and that plays a huge part in the lack of active, vibrant campus life. Greeks and other clubs take backseat to the academic and structure of the university. This also is one of the main reasons that I feel the university is lacking in its accomodations to those who reside on campus. There is one dorm, and it is falling apart, and there are also apartments on campus that are nicer. Dining services don't cater to the residents on campus, and so on the weekends, you can only buy breakfast. Although UNO is a relatively large school, classes aren't extremely huge (15-20 students/class). My advice is to get to know the faculty within your department. I have come to feel as if my profs and advisors in the Poli Sci department are family. The faculty at UNO is more than willing to help, but in a large campus setting, I've found that you have to seek them out, and they will be ready to help. If you plan to live on campus (and I think that every freshman should spend at least one semester) bring your car. UNO is in a residential area of New Orleans, and you're going to have to drive to get places, although the public transportation system runs right through campus. The bottom line: UNO can be challenging and rewarding in the academic sense. For every other aspect of college life, it's up to you to determine what type of experience you'll have, because UNO serves it's main purpose, and that's the educational one.
