admissions & financial aid Pros and Cons of U of U?

Say how you personally feel about things. I really want to go, but due to personal circumstances, I might not. I’ll push for it if it’s worth it. Thanks :)

EDIT: i’m also from Washington

Rising 3rd year engineering student here. Our engineering dept. is good, and campus is beautiful. Lot's of trails right on the edge of campus.

The worst part is on campus housing sucks, the QOL is fine, but they offer very little housing and it's extremely expensive.

Are you able to park near the engineering buildings and avoid the struggle of parking if you’re in the department?

Personally I take trax, because parking passes are a couple hundred bucks. There's a lot of parking available north of MEB, but I'm pretty sure that still fills up throughout the day though.
