Biola University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Biola University? Why?

Courtney

The worst thing about Biola University is the cost. The education is spectacular and the people are amazing, but even still, with the economy the way it is the price is just way to high. I would definitely encourage a person seeking to find their passion in life to come to this school, but sometimes that is impossible when the price is so high.

Because my campus is a very studious campus, it tends to be fairly quiet. So the worst part about my school is that the weekends are quiet because people are studying in their rooms or go home to study, but the students still go outside of the campus and find fun things to do!

Honestly, So far the only thing I can think of is that its very dificult to find parking. It seems like nomatter what time I get on campus it really difficult to find parking. UCF is accomadting are in the process of building more parking lots.

I would say the fact that the campus is landlocked. There's not much space to expand. We have to keep building in the 95 acres that we have or build up. That is going to get pretty tough, because the school is growing leaps and bounds.

The worst thing about Biola, if any, would be buying your books there, they are expensive!!

Adrienne

The worst thing about this school is how expensive it is. However, they do give out financial aid. God provides.

Angela

The price, it is quite a lot, even though I'm working through school sometimes it still isn't enough.

Jessica

I adore Biola, but sadly, the tuition is extremely expensive. For my freshman year, I have already taken out quite a few loans, even though I won a few scholarships and worked all summer. My parents and I are under constant strain looking for ways to lessen college expenses or receive scholarships. I have an on-campus cleaning job at Biola to help pay for school, which leaves me with less time to do my homework. I manage by organizing my schedule better and remaining focused on what I need to get done. Biola is wonderful, but too expensive.

Meghan

The worst thing about my College is that there isn't much minorities displayed at my school. So I would like to see more minorities able to attend Biola.

The financial cost because not only is it a struggle for me, but there are several people, some of whom i personally know, that won't be attending this coming spring semester of 2010 because they basically can't afford it. It costs an average student about $37,000 for the whole year. It's ridiculous... but i hope to continue to attend because Biola offers one of the top educations in the Biblical department with many renown professors; J.P. Moreland to name just one of them.
