In appraising CMU, most students are appreciative of the fantastic education they’re receiving and the one-of-a-kind experience that the campus offers. At CMU, students have an unprecedented opportunity to explore their fields of study. Sometimes it’s hard for students to see all opportunities that Carnegie Mellon gives them. Students who are unhappy with their experience are often frustrated with the sub-par social situation or the massive amount of work. No matter how fed up students get with the amount of work, the social scene, or the bad weather, students are often glad they came to CMU when they think about the unique experience the school has given them. The academic opportunities you will receive at CMU are astounding, and everyone on campus is truly dedicated to learning. Though the time spent at CMU may not fulfill some students’ hopes of living a wild youth, the years spent at Carnegie Mellon can be just as exciting in some ways. It’s different. And for people who don’t want the same college experience as everyone else, it can be exciting. Carnegie Mellon Student ReviewsWhat's This?Filter:

Always Willing to Help
A
At Carnegie Mellon you can basically do whatever you want academic wise. The advisors will help you to find majors and minors that fit what you want to do in life and figure out what you need to do to achieve your goals. The professors are incredibly helpful and always available to meet with students to help them with assignments and understanding course material. The workload is heavy, but incredibly helpful in the end. |

No One Cares
C
Kids at CMU are too busy for sports. We have some good teams like the club rugby team but we could be NCAA champion and still no one would care. This is only a down side if your into sports, most people here arn't.
Our gyms are nice. You can always play D3. |

Good
B+
There are a ton of places to live off campus. Pittsburgh housing is pretty cheap too. The only down side is that once you are out of the school housing system its nearly impossible to get back in. |
