If you want a pleasant learning atmosphere while at the same time live an active student life, the University of Kansas is perfect for you.
Even for those who are a little bit shy such as I was, the University of Kansas student staff has many activities and events to get rid of that shyness as you meet many people and make new and good friends very quickly.
If you are also looking for high-class facilities such as lecture halls, gyms, and pools, the University of Kansas is a perfect candidate. They have a three floor recreation center, including an extravagant rock-climbing wall where students can go to work out. They also have two pools in a different building along with a diving platform. Each dorm also has a lobby generally consisting of a pool table, piano and TV. read full review -

The campus life is B-E-A-UTIFUL. The trees in Autumn are magnificent and Potters Lake is always a cool spot to hangout, and if you're into working out the Rec Center is above and beyond anything you could ever imagine...including the rock wall;-) The massive amount and backgrounds of students coming everywhere from Russia to Kenya and beyond in overwhelming in a good sense. You have such a vast melting pot of ideas and religions that all you have to do is be open and remember that everyone is connected through the same purpose of getting a better education and you'll make friends in no time...seriously I made like 15 REAL friends whom I still talk to today and half are across the world right now!!! read full review
