    The campus is wonderful and very comfortable, however I'm used to a smaller city than Missoula so sometimes the size of the city is overwhelming.

    Missoula is a great town to go to school in. However, unless you are an avid outdoorsman, or are twenty-one years of age, the city can be quite limited. That said, the city is beautiful, it feels bigger than it is, there is a great mentality with the people, and you'll be hard pressed to find a better backdrop for your education.

    Most beautiful place in the inland Northwest, you have a view, fresh air, the city life, and yet you still have the country life where you can just take a stroll through nature and not be far from the campus.
