College Advice on University of Minnesota - Twin Cities

BlueSta... Question: university of minnesota twin cities admission requirement? can i get the exact thing i need to get into the university of minnesota twin city, i have a good GPA 3.77 and i say it is getting higher, my ACT is about 21, i'm in a program called upward bound. is that enough for me to get admitted in that university. 36 months ago jayme... Best Answer With a strong GPA, you should be good, especially if you have teken tougher courses. I know w/ the University of Wisconsin (the school most similar to UM-TC) ACT scores are the last thing they look at, after GPA, classes, activities, service, essay, ect. See all 3 answers

midwest... Question: Tell me how to fit in as a new college student? I have no pre-existing friends/family in the area, since I'm from out-of-state going to the University of Minnesota: Twin Cities. But I'm open to doing social activities and chilling with people. Will I do fine? 39 months ago Dumbl... Best Answer You have no need to worry whatsoever about not having friends or family in the area. Along with the fact that there are many people like you (even coming from cities in the same state that are far away, they may not know anyone either), most people won't already have a pre-existing group of friends. Since you're going to be living on-campus, you'll be right in the middle of events and stuff. You'll probably get to know everyone on your floor soon enough; you'll meet your roommates' friends and friends of people on your floor. You'll be fine with the social scene; anyone who's open enough to meeting other people will do fine. If you still feel like you're not meeting enough people, join a bunch of clubs that you're interested in (political philosophies, environmntal groups, AIDS projects, you know what I mean), and you'll meet people who share similar interests. I commute to campus so I don't really know anyone, but people I know who live in the dorms are really involved if they want to be. They have tons of friends just from all over the place (like compared to my 40 or so Facebook friends from UCLA, they have friends in the hundreds). I'm not much of a social person, though; it's really all up to how you take advantage of where you are. Good luck, and have fun! But more than anything, study hard, since that's what you're in college for anyway =) See all 4 answers

twintree Question: Can I transfer to the University of Minnesota: Twin Cities after a semester of community college? I didn't due too well in high school due to various issues, but I graduated. I got my diploma and impressive ACT/SAT scores, but my GPA wasn't good enough to warrant admission into the University of Minnesota. I know I have the smarts, and now I have the motivation. If I were to go to a local community college in Minnesota and get all A's, do you guys think that it would be possible for me to transfer to the large university after a semester? 40 months ago Luz Best Answer SURE!!! You can transfer to a university after going to a community college. If I were you, I'd first call the U of M and ask how many credits you can transfer, sometimes they have limits. Then you'll know how many and what classes you should take so that you won't waist your time. I hope it helps!!! See all 2 answers

blank.it Question: Does anyone have any input about the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities? I am looking for a school near me to go to in the next couple years. (I'm a junior in high school right now.) While doing a college survey thing, I found that the major I'm interested in is available at this university (as opposed to one of my previous university choices). Additionally, I'm pretty sure the tuition there counts as in-state for me (I live in Wisconsin). So, I was wondering, what sorts of things can you people tell me about it? How's the campus? What about the professors? Are they generally helpful? What about class size? I know a lot of students go there... Are most classes auditorium-sized? I really prefer one-on-one-ish classes... If it makes any difference, I'm going to study international relations, so those are the sorts of classes I'd be taking. Thanks in advance for any input! I really appreciate it! :-D 43 months ago lunds... Best Answer I am a Goldie Gopher. When I went there, it was OK. Professors are extremely opinionated and close minded, but they are nice about it. Do not even think about trying to get housing, as the housing situation has only gotten worse since I left. Also, you definitely must get a parking permit, as parking is a bitch. Dinky town has better shopping, and Shuang Cheng is great Chinese food. Stadium village sucks, unless you like to get piss drunk. Then it rocks. Koffman Student Union is a good place to hang, as it is central to the U. Get Rollerblades, as 1st year students for a liberal arts major are screwed. Since you want to study int. relations, get to know the west bank. get a room in the projects, and the campus is a light little hike for you, if you do not want to get a car. Good school though, and intl. relations is a solid major from the U. I was an East Asian Studies major. Email me if yo have any other questions.

kenny n Question: what is your impression of University of Minnesota twin cities? im going there this fall... 44 months ago Miss ... Best Answer It's a great campus in Minneapolis--St Paul's campus is a little spread out. A quick bus ride to Downtown and if you're living somewhere on campus, probably a short walk to a busiess district for food and fun. Do you know about craigslist?! (I'll put the link below for Mpls.) It's fun to read through things and posting is free. Whether you're looking for housing or furniture...a good place to look. If you haven't explored the U of M's web site, that's the 2nd link! Ask a more specific quesion and I'm sure others will give you their two cents!
