Good reviews
Overall 4.6
After my first year here at UMO, I fell in love with it and found so many opportunities to thrive and grow in my skills and knowledge.
Bad reviews

None.

easy school, small campus, nothing to do
Overall 1.7
After 4 years at the school I can say it's only gotten worse. Funds are not distributed to help departments, only a handful of teachers care enough to actually help the rest are there for a paycheck, and any administrative office takes forever to respond if at all. The campus security is no better than rent-a-cops at the mall.
