Located along Clark Fork River and surrounded by mountains, the University of Montana has earned its reputation as one of the most beautiful campuses in the country. The 220-acre campus sits at the base of Mount Sentinel, which features a 620-foot "M" for Missoula. The campus isn't just pretty to look at -- students enjoy a variety of outdoor adventures like mountain climbing, hiking, skiing, fishing, and camping.
UM is a public research university established in 1893 as Montana's flagship campus. It is a top-ranking university, considered one of the best in the nation. It ranks fifth in producing Rhodes Scholars and offers 11 colleges. The Montana Grizzlies compete in NCAA Division I as part of the Big Sky Conference. Watch the Grizzlies play football at Washington-Grizzly Stadium, catch a basketball game at Dahlberg Arena, cheer on the soccer teams at South Campus Stadium, and catch the softball team at Grizzly Field.
Missoula is a terrific city at the convergence of five mountain ranges, providing scenic views in every direction. Founded in 1860, the city began as Hellgate Trading Post. When looking for apartments near UM, be aware that Downtown Missoula is across the river and to the west of the university. Downtown apartments are ideal for enjoying both the historic downtown and university events. To be within walking distance of Washington-Grizzly Stadium, look near the intersection of 6th Street and South Van Buren Avenue.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
