A place to learn how not to get podded (stupidly at least).

Great corporation for very new players and they offer classes on a lot of different things. Is also a great place to go to try and build up some contacts in the Eve Universe and make friends for the entire time you're playing the game.

Ultimately I would say though, don't go to it as a permanent home. You will outgrow it eventually and at that stage become frustrated with the rules that are in place to protect the even less experienced characters and at that stage it's time to move on and join one of the countless other corps in Eve, with there being quite a few formed out of former Uni pilots.

Can't recommend it enough for the new players looking to try out the basics of every aspect of the game, though it does struggle get into real depth with any single aspect...

I great place to get started in EVE! The ship replacement program helps a lot if you want to learn PvP fleets without losing ISK especially since you are broke when you start out. Lots of great classes also and a wiki page!

I've been playing on and off for about a year. While doing an incursion, a friendly soul helped me with my fit and pointed me towards EVE University. Since I joined, I have learned a thousand fold more than any of the tutorials or first-hand experience can teach.
Never thought I would, but I have learned tremendous amounts about PvP and have participated in numerous fleets which were thoroughly enjoyable. Even if you lose your ship, you gain invaluable knowledge about what to do (or not) the next time, be it fleet PvP or solo.
I would recommend this corp to anyone that is starting out or an old hand that needs pointers or willing to teach a few things to the FNG's.

Eve Uni has been one of the best corporations I have been in, it's almost a must for new pilots.

The infamous learning curve of eve is a lot better tackled when you have friendly, experienced, and motivated people to help train and teach the newer generations. What the management and teachers are doing here in this corp really shines a light in the blackness that is the eve universe. I have had some of my most fun times in this corp, whether it be the pvp fleets, the wormhole ops, the low sec camping trips, or even just learning something new through the classes. I highly recommend new players join this corp so they can be better prepared for when they really decide to go out on their own.

If you're a new capsuleer in Eve, I can't think of a better place to start your journey than Eve University.

I would recommend that ANYONE new to the game should absolutely join Eve University. The people there are fantastic and the knowledge base spans every aspect of the game.

Fab Times.

As Alumni I can still attend classes, access forums and chats were there are always 100's of people around who will help you out.

Floundering - overwhelmed - E Uni is more refreshing than Quafe - you know it makes sense.

Seriously - until I made it into E Uni, I really didn't have a clue what I was doing. A few months on - of course I've still a lot to learn - but the uni is making sense of New Eden.

Geniunely friendly, and open to all questions you could throw at its members - highly recommend Blink

Thanks to the great people in EVE University! I just became a member and on my first day I went on my first incursion, learned about ten new things, and participated in a live event, all as part of an awesome fleet with knowledgeable FCs. I've been playing for six months and it was the most fun I've had. Definitely recommend!

I've been with the Uni a while now and I love it.

Great fun and supportive community. Just ask a question and see how fast you get a responce. :)

The Uni is a great place to get to know EVE and find your own pace doing it.

Good day:

I spent four (4) months in Eve University; and it was four months well spent.

Eve University has classes for most (if not all) subject matters (right now I'm kicking myself for not learning exploration from them).

While in the near future, Eve University pilots may be shooting up my ships (I'm working to be a pirate; and I'm in a pirate corporation), I salute every member. Eve University is a great corporation.

Thank you.

If you are still new to EVE Online, and dont know where to go for a friendly hand, head straight to EVE University. Its good to know there is a large organization out there that is supportive and newbie friendly.

Ah those heady University days... I remember them fondly. If I'd found the uni on my first try at EVE i'd have an older character and a different name!

A good place to learn the basics of Eve.
