University of Tennessee Reviews

My instructors were very well qualified, but the bulk of assignments were group projects, and for most of our classes I feel I was inadequately prepared to secure a job in my field. The most helpful classes were those that helped you get acquainted with a specific type of job and the work they entail, rather than those for familiarizing you with the different principles involved in the career.
The nature of most classes made the readings pointless since our grades rarely reflect them, so not many students bother to read, as there's no reason to retain information from 90 page readings each week if you aren't applying it in coursework. The professors were almost always available save for a few classes, though, and were good with interacting with the class. However, the near-3 hour length of the classes were, in my opinion, counter-intuitive, with many students being unable to remain invested in a class past a certain point, even with breaks.

It was a good school for what I was expected to pay, but I wish I had gone elsewhere. I wasn't very involved in student life, but we usually couldn't go a month without having some racist event taking place on campus. Navigating around the large campus was easy though, thanks to the free trolley/bus system, which was a necessity given the chaotic parking.
As a graduate student, housing options are expensive and limited if you don't have outside income; most apartments are in the $700-$1000 range, which can be next to impossible if you don't already live nearby or if you're coming straight out of undergrad. The few less expensive options are close to a mile away, meaning you're relying on your own transportation or the bus system to get to campus.

Excellent! Again, I haven't attended the school myself yet, but I have known plenty of people who have been more than happy with the state of the academics at the University of Tennessee.
