1) Shy students who have a hard time meeting new people. Akron offers plenty of opportunities to meet other students in fun environments that limit awkwardness. The class tend to be smaller which offers more time to get to know your professors and fellow students.
2) Academic orientated students. Akron offers several different types of educational promoting groups and it's very easy to get in touch with professors. There are tutoring labs held in the main library on campus everyday, classroom assistants in several classes, learning communities (you live and have classes with these people), and a large Honors program with it's own residence hall. read full review -

Awesome school! I live at home and commute to and from daily. Parking can be a hassle but if you get there early it's a breeze to find a parking spot. I am definitely learning a lot in all of my classes and almost all of the professors are willing to help you out if you are struggling with anything. Highly recommend the University of Akron! read full review
