During the summer, I went to Harvard for an internship for Biostatistics and was amazingly well-prepared. I thought I was going to struggle, but realized that I received a pretty thorough education. I am grateful for the opportunities and experiences that I have accumulated at UNM and do not regret coming here for my undergraduate.
Absolute worst University one could attend. Although I graduated from this college, I'd never send my child here nor refer anyone to this Uni. The professors are amazing (for the most part). However, the advisement, the financial aid offices, and really anyone other than the prof. are horrendous. I should've stayed home in MA and attended school there. UNM has been my biggest regret thus far.
I am from New Mexico and didn't really think about going out of state, so UNM seemed like my best option. Overall, I think UNM is a pretty good school. Teachers and advisers, are never as helpful as you think and hope they would be. Therefore, I suggest being proactive and taking accountability for making sure you get what you need done in and out of the classroom.
Awesome campus, great food options, and study places everywhere. Has a good New Mexico feel to it.
There are plenty of research and scholarship opportunities if you look for them, especially for first-generation, underrepresented, low socioeconomic status students. In particular, the Biology and Environmental Science departments have a lot of helpful staff and provide a few scholarships and research programs. El Centro de la Raza has always been helpful for me, as well (i.e. free printing, study space, scholarships, supportive staff).
Tuition is prorated for the Pell Grant which is very strange considering it's only one class, never in my life have I had a more difficult term with this place, they make it more and more difficult every term for us to attend this campus unfortunately UNM has taken a turn down hill and displeases me constantly, it's difficult to even drop a class less than two months into it. Governor Martinez is corrupt, greedy, and selfish she cut the Education budget out of corruption and vetoes Bill after Bill
Stayed there in the dorms during the summer for an internship... Homeless everywhere, drug deals going down on campus, cockroaches haunted the dorm rooms, I was only there for 10 weeks and the air conditioners didn't work for about 6 weeks... THIS SCHOOL IS LITERALLY THE WORST.
