any inside info?

<p>Does anyone know anything about the University of Maine?
I'm thinking of applying there to grad school, though it's not my first choice. (I'll be applying to a total of 5 or even 6 schools.)
Have never been to Maine before, and I'm worried about the weather, as silly as that might sound; I've read that the winters are very cold.
For anyone having been to Maine, what's your impression of it? What about the university?</p>

<p>I am from Maine and I can tell you that it can get very cold however it is manageable if you dress appropriately. Your biggest problem will be snow as at snows frequently and in large quantities in Maine. Umaine is a good school.</p>
