The learning experience here is quite interesting because the professors know their stuff and very knowledgeable in their fields. You can learn a good bit just by attending the classes but to get the most out of the college you would have to take that knowledge outside of the class. It's not as easy as I thought it would be but its not to difficult as well.

As far as enjoyment goes, its what you make it cause the University of the Virgin Islands is on a small island and there are not a lot of things to do, if you do find something in a matter of weeks it will turn into a regular because of the lack of diversity. There are clubs and organizations to join and the students are friendly so you wouldn't have a problem meeting someone new and having fun but like I said in the beginning its what you make it.

Not expensive to the other school I've been looking at and i would say that its relatively cheap for the type of knowledge and experience you would obtain if you attend this University.

I few tips that I wish I had before I came to the University of the Virgin Islands are: 1. Choose an academic major in your first year, going undecided can waste you time and if you plan on changing your major, that's not that difficult. 2. When you choose your major (final decision), in depth research all requirements and prerequisites for that major because the general UVI courses and your specialized degree major is largely different. This might sound like a normal thing to do but there are more courses available and required than what your normal paradigm might include. 3. Contact your adviser immediately, their all knowledgeable on what your specific degree program is and can help you in many areas even outside of academics.

The classes are not large so it is quite easy to establish a good relationship with your professor educationally speaking. The professors I have had so far are very knowledgeable in their subjects.

Most of the people I have met or known before are friendly and helpful. They are very accepting. The atmosphere of the place is actually pretty refreshing.

For a great education, the tuition is good.

Make sure you plan and get organized. Don't waste time or procrastinate. Attend class regularly, and seek help when needed. There are tutors available for just about everything.

UVI is one of the finest schools in the collegiate system. I find it to offer the academics I need to further my education and global approach to current issues in our world today. I feel confident knowing the University President has the best interest of the student at heart.

Visit UVI during a summer break and explore the possibility to attend. The opportunity to succeed are before you, all you have to do is have a desire to propel to greatness and all the help is hear for you to achieve such desires. If nothing else, the environment is a place where you can study, grow and learn.

You must give in order to get! As like most Universities, you have to do your class work. Classes are not easy, however, Professors gives challenge where you appreciate the learning and the knowledge developed along the way.

Living in a dorm with a million dollar view is not the normal dorm life one would expect. But here in St. Thomas that is one of the perks for attending school on an Island. Dorm life is something everyone should experience. You learn how to relate and live with others. UVI being a melting pot of races, exposes you to various cultures and traditions. Dorm life teaches you how to respect others and how to communicate. Which will pay in life when you leave the dorm life environment.

The food on campus can be an acquired taste for some and some just acclimate into it with no problems. It's all about the appetites and diet of those participating in the dining on campus. the atmosphere is defiantly a campus environment. However, the food is according to your taste-buds.

UVI is one of the best place in the world where there is never a dull moment. Surrounded by beautiful beaches, water sports, clubs and plenty of dining, a student can easily have a vacation within their own environment. People travel from around the globe to come to this beautiful island.

You get more than a bang for your buck. We have two beautiful campus' , one on the Island of St. Croix and one on the Island of St. Thomas. The tuition is affordable, the academic programs offered are not to be compared to other universities. We have a Marine Biology department that people come from all over to enroll in. UVI is a vacation school where you learn, grow and easy to relax.

Walking to class. Where else can you get you exercise on while waling to class? UVI - St. Thomas campus is situated on hills. So you walk up and down all day. Although you have an option to ride the shuttle to class, many prefer walking.

University of the Virgin Islands is great for any student who wants to learn in a beautiful environment.

At UVI there are clubs and plenty activities to keep one involved in the affairs of this school. The clubs activities allows students to build relations with students in many places in the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and the BVI.
