Recent budget cuts have made lots of students weary of continuing education here. Many programs have already been cut. Tuition price is great, in comparison to other colleges. My experience with some professors have been quite unsatisfactory, but I have also met some of the greatest professors that are willing to go above and beyond to see you succeed. The quality of the education I've received here taking general classes is low.
Although, I was apart of the Early Childhood Education program, which is where I had the best experience with teachers, coursework, advising, etc. You definitely need to allow yourself to find the right people that are willing to help you with the hard stuff.
Definitely do other research on UAF to help ensure this is the place for you!

The University of Alaska Fairbanks is a very diverse college that provides students with the necessary tools to have a successful career. With a variety of degree opportunities, no matter what students are looking for they will likely find it at UAF! I highly recommend this university!
I am starting this coming Fall Semester, and everyone I have been in contact with have been so helpful. There has been some helpful Zoom meetings that have helped me a lot. I was able to enter a program that will assist me through my years I am going for my Bachelor's Degree. I can't wait to start my classes!
