    I will be attending University of Maine at Farmington in the Fall of 2019 as a Freshman, and I love it there. The students and the staff are all super friendly, and there is such an amazing community there, both with the school and the surrounding town of Farmington. The campus is a nice size, and there are so many different clubs, activities, and different opportunities for people to meet others and explore their interests. I can’t wait to go there in the Fall!

    Going to college in Maine is somethting if a special experience. It is /very/ small town. Near the beginning of a semester, when everyone is still excited, expect hellos on the street of campus and a super friendly atmosphere. The town is super easy to get involved in, there is always something going on, though don't expect it to be all sorority parties or whatever it is that really big colleges have. Central of town hosts music, festivals etc. Clubs are all active and awesome. Dorms are friendly, safe places where you will probably know some of your neighbors even if you really try not to. Classes don't slack, so keep your school/social life balanced! Still, professors are also cool and for the most part don't seem like they hate their own existence. Go here especially if you've never been a Mainer. I moved to texas and am super homesick for the place, and I only lived in Maine for 5 years. It's an amazing place.
    University of Maine at Farmington is incredibly welcoming and helpful. It is such a close knit community and everyone is involved! They offer many different activities, clubs, and sports that would suit anyone. UMF is a safe environment full of friendly faces.
