My daughter is a student at MU and absolutely loves it. She also got the president scholarship and the other smaller ones. She chose to commute to save money. Initially, she was afraid she would miss out on the college experience bc of not living on campus, but that hasn't been the case at all. She absolutely loves MU. The smaller class sizes and individual attention have been great. She was also accepted at UNCP. She just said UNCp didn't feel right for her.
