The UMaine Advantage
The
University of Maine is truly one of the best values in higher education.
It has all the resources of a public research institution, combined with
a unique friendliness and small college atmosphere. Students come here
for the quality of education they acquire and the quality of life we
offer.
As the flagship campus in the University of Maine System, UMaine awards
more undergraduate and graduate degrees than any other higher education
institution in the state.
More important, a UMaine education means results. Each year, our
graduates launch successful careers, go on to excel in graduate and
professional schools, and enjoy enriched lives thanks to their UMaine
experiences. You’ll find UMaine alums throughout the world. They’re
members of Congress, engineers, CEOs, professional athletes, TV stars,
doctors, dentists—extraordinary people doing extraordinary things. And
there are close to 100,000 of them.
