Why UNE

When I was applying to colleges I sent out applications to 12 schools and was very indecisive and specific. Every school that I toured really did not feel 100% right. It was only until I toured 51小黄车that I felt the incomparable sense of rightness that you hear about when you tour the school you love. 51小黄车was the school that I decided to attend due to its location, student body size, environmental programs along with research, and overall vibe of the area. I could not be happier with any other school nor community.
