It has 24×7 libraries, two museums and lot of studying spots. Also, the faculty is quite helpful and so are students.

I live off campus because it is cheaper for $500 per month.

The university itself has lot of international clubs that students can participate and volunteer for. Libraries are excellent. Wifi is available everywhere on campus. Recreation center is free for students during winter and spring terms. Transport through university bus is free through out the town.

It’s not sponsored by university and it would cost around $300-$600 monthly depending on various factors like separate room, groceries and utilities.

I live off-campus which is significantly cheaper and more independent than on-campus. For example, one has to have a meal plan if they are a first-year student living in the dorms. While it can be a pain to get to class some days, it is better paying low rent and making your own meals.

I wanted to stay in-state because of family and costs. KU is the only university with a medical school as I was pre-med. They also have one of the highest ranking honors programs. They have the Pell Grant advantage, which covers most of my tuition and fees. The campus is beautiful and Lawrence is a great college town.
