if you are going to live in the dorms, i truly suggest south campus! it's where everything happens; you meet and greet and have fun, not to mention the gym…
I live in the cheapest dorms on campus, so they can get pretty gross, but having a bunch of people who have never lived alone all together will make for…
I stayed in the dorm freshman year and it was the best decision. now they are putting up many new dorms and unfortunately taking all the parking lots with it…
Dorm halls are built every year. When living in the dorms it is a safe environment for everyone that resides in them. Security is a top priority of this campus…
The University of Kentucky is currently in the process of updating all of their resident halls. The buildings themselves are very nice living quarters, and the individuals chosen as resident…
Two major dining halls is the 90/Fresh Food company and Champions Kitchen, which is the only place meal swipes. The rest only take flex or cash (ex: Subway, Papa Johns, Panda Express, Auntie and Annie pretzel thing, Freshii for vegans). Recommend getting there at 5-6pm for dinner before stuff runs out. Meal plan is required for those who live on campus, except University Flats Best part is that there is a Kroger literally under a mile from campus that you can walk/bike to in under 10 minutes if meal plans get too expensive.
Read MoreThe food options at UK are endless. THere's something for everyone, even in the cafeterias. There's a vegan, allergy free, and restaurant pop-up line at both cafeterias at UK. If cafeteria food isn't for you, don't worry there are lots of restaurants around that take meal plan cards as well.
Read MoreThere are many places on or around campus to eat at. On campus, there is the 90, Champions Kitchen, K-Lair, Taco Bell, Papa Johns, Aqua Sushi, La Madelines, Steak and Shake, and the Wildcat Pantry. Around campus, there is a Jamba Juice, Dunkin Donuts, Raising Canes, Local Taco, and McDonald's.
Read MoreThe food is absolutely spectacular, with several popular dining options scattered across campus including: Chipotle, Subway, Taco Bell, the largest Starbucks on a college campus to date, and countless beloved local restaurants.
Read MoreThe campus dining is wonderful and I always enjoy eating on campus, when I do.
Read Morei love the food.
Read Morethere multiple places that offer food throughout the university. for example the den and the 90 have food from many different fast food chains. with your housing plan you can also pick a meal plan that lets you buy food around campus.
Read Morethe dining options are great. the fresh food company/the 90 are the best so far since they vary their options. the others are a bit repetitive, so diversify where you go. the dining facilities are large, and now have new ones like the hotspot fresh food company, la madelline, the new one to be open at gatton, etc that look amazing. uk puts nutritional info of their food for their main dining halls on their website. each dining hall or uk's themed restaurant-like areas all have the calorie info. flex is king. i highly recommend using the champions 85 ($750 flex, i think) or at least the blue (14 meal swipes and flex $300) or white (10 meal swipes and flex $200, i think). uk even has a mini grocery store called the wildcat pantry where flex can be used. flex can be used everywhere, meal swipes in most areas. a mix should be fine. i recommend using their to-go box so you can take food to your dorm. i dislike how uk only allows meal swipes at bowmans den and k-lair after 4pm. it annoying. also, all dining halls (except klair, which is midnight) closes at 8pm on fridays, and the one that remain open on the weekend open at 10:30am.
Read Morewhile staying at uk, all of my meals were provided at the commons market. the food was excellent and the workers were very kind.
Read MoreNot a part of this, but I believe 1/3 of students are. There are professional and social ones. The only thing I'm aware of is that it is a large time commitment and may fine you for not going to meetings. Those in Greek life are typically not involved in much else, so that's something to consider before rushing. Remember that other club organizations can offer friendships as well.
Read MoreI'm not apart of any Greek Life organization, however, greek life is a common and popular organization that students join. Despite the stereotypes attached to it, greek life actually has great benefits associated with it and you will make life long friends and will also be more active on and off campus as well.
Read Morei don't know how they are, dice i'm not greek. but the many students belong to some greek chapter. the greek houses at uk appear to be nice and well-kept buildings, though i've heard that they are pricy to live in
Read MoreLove it. It's a large portion of campus, about one fourth of the students are affiliated. We also have the Divine Nine. I have been told that it is hard to get into parties if you're not Greek or do not know someone.
Read MoreGreek life here is big and it is a great way to get involved and socialize with other people your age.
Read MoreI would not know. All I know is the simple fact that it is offered, and many students enjoy it.
Read MoreI'm not involved in Greek life, so I can't say much about it, except that some organizations are good and some are not. You have to be careful about which one you choose. For sororities, it's mostly pretty good, except that some have reputations for being promiscuous or big partiers. For guys, there is hazing; they say there isn't, but they lie. I lived in a fraternity house that the university reclaimed because SAE got kicked off campus for 2 years for setting someone on fire, and there were cages in the basement where they would haze the rushes. It's amazing what they have to do if they want to get their girlfriends letters or a ring.
Read MoreToo much in it. Instead of being heavily focused on academics, all I here in my classes are guess who got drunk last weekend?! Its the most annoying thing. Also, if you like individuality DONT come here. Everyone dresses the same and if you arent in a sorority or frat, you will be looked down upon.
Read MoreGreek Life is large here. We have 13 sororities and 21 fraternities and although that may seem like a lot, there are tons of other things to do and other crowds to associate with across campus.
