    I have loved my time here at the University. The campus is beautiful, and the sports (especially basketball) and student involvement/activities is what has made my time here so memorable. I love that the campus has a lot of people, but the campus buildings are fairly close together, so while you're walking to class, you almost always see someone you know. Also, you are not having to walk forever across campus to get to your next class.

    UK is a great school to get an higher education and to feed your sport competition fetish. Students come to UK because of the campus environment and the infamous city life. Though, it is easy to get off track, the University of Kentucky has many free on-campus resources to keep you on your feet.

    UK is a great university for sports, academics, and social life. I have only one complaint and that is the campus is outdated. However, they are doing major renovations throughout all of campus which should help UK succeed.

    The University of Kentucky is what you make it. Get involved, push yourself, and socialize, because the opportunities are all there. If you do not choose to do any of those you are not making the best of your college experience.

    The educational opportunities are endless. The atmosphere of the entire campus helps to keep me motivated. Engineering is largely important at the university, ergo I always have a push.

    is a small southern town with a big city feel. It is a beautiful city surrounded by acres of horse farms. It's a place I do not want to leave anytime soon.
