Although all of the classes i have taken at UAF ( engineering based as well as a few rec) have been very enlightening and I personally feel you get the level of teaching you sign up for- 100, 200 level classes- I have heard from more than one east coast person that they don't feel challenged enough.

    This college is an 8 out of 10. Prices are good, there are tons of clubs and activities for all different types of people, and the class sizes are usually pretty nice. The only real downsides are cold winters, and the food could be better.

    Great school to go to. There is always something going on and always people around. Everything is a 5 minute walk away on campus and shuttle service is awesome.

    Attending UAF is extreme; both the weather and the opportunities. I've been to outside schools but UAF by far has the most opportunities for hands-on learning in countless fields of study.
