Incredible experience, incredible school. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a liberal arts or private college experience. A beautiful campus and beautiful city to live in. The weather is not as bad as many expect it to be, especially when you are surrounded by a supportive group of people.
I loved the rigor that my professors brought to my classes. The professors at UPS are generally highly competent and committed to giving their students a quality education. At UPS, I found it doable to balance my academic commitments, my extra curricular activities, and my social life.
