My favorite part about living in Kansas City would be all of the new things to see. My friends and I like to try new restaurants and find little stores throughout the city on the weekends. I think it is impossible to get bored in KC because there is so much to do and see. I don't think I'll ever see it all.

Your Future Is Bright in Kansas City
98% of ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø graduates report being employed within 6 months of graduation – many of them have jobs lined up even before graduation. Part of this is because of the strong academic reputation and network ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø has in the city, but a big part of it is because Kansas City has a thriving economy with jobs galore.
Employment has been growing for over a decade with no signs of slowing down.* Pair that with a low cost of living, and it certainly sounds like a pretty good life!
