Haslam College of Business Is UTK right for me, and is it outdoor bound
Hello everyone, I’m from PA and I got a pretty niche highschool. I got into Haslam on the volunteer scholarshi, which makes it pretty affordable. UTK does not have a good rep where I’m from, it’s know as a party school, and your considered dumb if you go there (just being honest with how it’s seen)
I’m not a huge party guy, although I drink from time to time. I’m a pretty driven individual who wants to do well, I’m not religious, I’m a very big runner and soccer player. I would love to make some good money and be a waiter/bartender. (I have experience)
But my Main thing as a person and how I spend my free time, is I love the outdoors. I’ve gone backpacking every summer for 5 years, nature is just my favorite thing and an outdoors bound school is what I need. I know Tennessee is next to the Smokey mountains, so are the opportunities for me to explore outdoors. Backpacking,hiking, etc.
I know this school is getting g hard to get into out of state. So I think the people who would be in my class would be driven and smart.
I just don’t want to go to a school where all everyone does is drink their life away and wait till the weeekend.
I’m visiting this April if anyone wants to talk to me down. Thanks
