Business Outlook

Pros

Price, location, School is famous for being National Champions. There are many opportunities for funding as well, either at the graduate or undergraduate level. There are a lot of resources available to students. There are also a lot of networking opportunities

Cons

There is a problem with communication, especially at such a big school. You have to look for and be aware of on your own. The school is very supportive of the football team which is bad only because a lot of things on campus revolve around the football schedule so the library will be closed on game days
