It is a really fun and family type place, I love the atmosphere with the sports because, the games that I have seen they're usually very packed almost like a division one football game, the meal plans are really good and the restaurants they offer on-campus like the chic-fil-a and subway's. Such good food and don't even get me started on the people! They are so accepting and open to meeting new people and making friends, they are so fun. The coaches are so respectful as well, I have seen coaches sit and talk to players about it all. I haven't moved in yet but I have been up there and been to some workouts, coaches have made this transitional experience such a breeze and have been there for me as soon as I decide to leave Fort Hays, making me understand that I wouldn't be able to play right away but that I will have an equal shot and that my talent in their opinion is exactly what they're looking for! The admission staff is one of the best. Tom Knott has kept me posted very well.
I loved UNK! I didn't even want to take a tour there, but once I did I knew that it was the school for me. The academics at UNK are excellent and you will be sure to graduate in four years. The housing, food, and student life is very good as well. There are always activities going on and things you can get involved in. I loved UNK so much that I will be going back there for my Master's this spring!
The online courses are obviously not the same as in person class, but it's really helpful since the professors find their way to make it easier for the class to not struggle. Being able to make an office appointment either in class or in person and they're really flexible especially when they have their own life to maintain as well. The online classes aren't much depending on what classes you're taking, but just like every other class it's for the degree that we are pursuing. There's nothing bad that i'd say about online classes now that I'm aware of everything since the pandemic happened in late March. The experience was new and I never thought I could handle doing classes from home, but it worked fine, since like I said professors understand especially when it's online. There's always a reason to why students take online classes especially when having a full time job or when you have reasons that are priorities and the professor understands what life can do to someone.
