University of Northern Colorado Reviews
There are a few downsides. The administration and people of authority that I have talked to have not been helpful. In times like this year, they have been less than understanding.
Everyone is going through struggles right now, so there have not been many activities for freshmen to adjust to this new environment.
UNC has not made the transition from home to college very easy, but the academics are definitely note worthy.
