    Overall, UNLV gives you a lot of benefits for the cost. It's not as cheap as some other schools out there, but sometimes one gets what one pays for.

    Unfortunately, with the recent budget cuts prices have risen, and it can certainly be felt as each dollar you pay gets you less distance in your strides towards paying tuition. Even with the increases though, I found the tuition cost to be manageable.

    Textbooks are a bit of a different story. The UNLV bookstore charges quite a lot, so it would probably be a good idea to buy your textbooks at a different store online. Unfortunately, however, many UNLV courses use custom editions of certain books with content additions and removals, which can be hard to find. Therefore in those cases you need to either get lucky on eBay or, sadly, pay full price at the bookstore. read full review

    There are many events, football games, Greek life, clubs and programs you can be involved in at UNLV. At the beginning of each semester UNLV holds a community fair for a week, where different organizations, clubs, fraternities and sororities set up tables inviting students to join. Everyone is very welcoming and when you find a club that's perfect for you, your experience at UNLV will increase as well. There may be different views on fraternity and sorority life, but its not what most people think. There are parties but they also hold charity events, do volunteer work, and have little competitions against each other. Joining a fraternities or sororities will help you make connections with people, can help you get a job, and even get guidance from graduate students. At UNLV, I would say I've had a blast here. From joining various clubs, going to football games and meeting new people. It's a very friendly environment, I guarantee you'll have a great college experience. Don't let not being 21 bring you down, there are more things to do here. read full review
