UB is a rare gem in the heart of the City of Light. Along with its rich history, UB carries with its name, the strong, forward thinkers of medicine (Wilson Greatbatch--creator of the pacemaker), poetics and literature (Poet Laureate Robert Creeley), film (Harvey Weinstein--producer/director), journalism (Wolf Blitzer), and business (Jeremy Jacobs--Delaware North and owner of the Boston Bruins) to name a very few. Also, having three campuses, and international economic, political, and financial affiliations, UB's reach is not merely domestic, but instead a major global connector for the 21st century.

Compared to other schools I have applied too UB offered me a combination program in the heath and human services field.

UB is unique in the fact that although it is a large univrsity, its fairly compact and easily accessable. In other words you don't have to be a marathon runner to get to each of your classes. It is also very involved with th community, like when I was dancing they opened their doors so that our small school could actually perform on stage. For me its especially unique since I have been visiting the school since I was a toddler. My brother even attended dome classes as a fetus.

Celia

My school offers varieties of research opportunities for students to volunteer or as a credit for their major. There are varities of volunteering programs for students related to their major. This is a good opportunity for students to interact with other professors in each field of department. Research helps students to prepare for their future and gives them the opportunity to explore their major.

Renee

UB has so many ways to get involved in the community. After classes and studying you can see a movie, play games, do research, go out to dinner or whatever you want without having to leave campus. I wasn't sure of what major I wanted but UB helped me decide durring their open house.
