Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | The university is a great choice for a student seeking a traditional experience. The programs are great and the location is fantastic. It is an all-around amazing school. |
| Program Reputation | 8 | The school is considered one of the top schools in the state. The law school is nationally ranked, and the school is regionally accredited. |
| Program Quality | 8 | I enjoyed my school, which made me enjoy what I was learning. I do, however, wish I had chosen a different program. |
| Instruction | 9 | I had teachers who were really amazing and provided depth to the topics. I also had some instructors who made going to class a struggle. |
| How Difficult | 7 | Once I knew the psychology theories that had been around for a long time, it was rather easy. I did struggle with the year-long research study I did. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | This really depended on the type of classes one was attending. I did a lot of hands on in the science classes, but not as much in history or theory-based classes. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 3 | The only flexibility option was choosing our own courses. |
| Academic Facilities | 7 | The university had great equipment. However, finding where to go to be able to access the resources needed some help. |
| Social Life | 10 | The social scene at the University of Idaho was amazing. I met a lot of people and made lifelong friends. We might not have the best sports teams, but we love them anyway! |
| Placement Services | 1 | Career placement was nonexistent. However, I did not expect to be placed, as I attended a traditional university. |
| Alumni Network | 8 | They have events in the town I currently live in. I get letters in the mail from them. |
