Good at Accepting Others

There are many different people on campus, and I haven't seen any discrimination against any one group of people. Everyone can find a group to fit into, and I think people at the school are very good at accepting others.

Plenty of Computer Labs

There are many computer rooms, known as cybraries, all around the campus. You can always find an empty computer to use and the internet is pretty fast.

Lovely

the off campus apartments are very nice, but they are extremely hard to get into. UB looks at GPA and credit hours, you have to be a super genius to get into the apartments. There are some students that live in houses off campus in buffalo or nearby neighborhoods.
