This college isn't bad at all. The campus is really nice and the community is really open and inclusive. Teachers are good too never had anything to complain about. Just don't live in Kerr!!!!

I’ve been to a couple colleges and this is leaps and bounds better than anywhere else I’ve been. Truly feel like the university wants me to succeed and they leave no excuses for you not to be successful. Food is amazing too.

Garbage bag of a school. Here to get a degree and get out as fast as possible. Advisors are horrible and don't know anything, tell you the wrong information and lose electronic paperwork somehow causing you delays. They don't respond to emails and this school is full of bureaucracy. Trashy campus and soviet era buildings

Do not waste your money. The whole university is unorganized and the university cares nothing about their students.
Overall 1
This school has unresponsive professors. Financial aid is a nightmare. The customer service is non-existent. Look to other universities. No one deserves to receive a lackluster education from this place by people who do not care.
Overall 1.3
Try studying at other better schools.
Overall 1.5
There’s an email about sa/rape or a shooting every weekend. Tenured professors are awful. Buildings are trash. Parking is trash. UNT cops are racist. Food is ok. The buildings are full of ASBESTOS. Not safe at all. They smell like Lead paint, cigarettes and dust, that’s like 80% of the buildings. There’s no culture at this school whatsoever.

Mid school
Overall 1.7
I graduate next fall and I am so-excited to be done with this university, I would've transferred last year if I wasn't so far along. The professors have been a nightmare, the advisors are no help, and the department heads can't do their job.
I have had maybe 3 good professors in the 3.5 years I have been here.
It's not worth it.
Overall 1.9
Poorly managed computer science. They tend to lay off good professors and hire problematic unqualified professors.
Parking lots suck.
Slightly racist students and meh body. Poor financial aid services.
The engineering program and finanical aid process have given me a lot of unnecessary stress and headaches which negatively affected employment.
