What do you consider the worst thing about California Lutheran University? Why?

Roy

The single worst thing about my school is the parking situation. Can be very tough to find a parking spot at times. Would like to see a more modern library too. However, the current library is not bad.

Chris

Even though CLU offers a variety of majors, the variety they do offer is rather basic when compared to many other universities.

Ashley

The food selection, especially on weekends.

Justino

I would consider the financial aid office the worst thing about Cal Lutheran. They do give a descent financial aid award out of high school but their staff is unhelpful when students come to them. The usual response is something like oh check out website and they are stubborn in the fact that financial aid packages are never altered to benefit the student. They have a unique policty with grants and awards that a student now maintain a 2.0 average and still get their award instead of a 3.0 orignally showing no incentive to achieve at their highest.

The worst thing about this school is the high enrolment fee for out of state students. While Cal Lu does offer several scholarships and Grants , competition can wear them thin. Many students must take out several student loans in order to pay the annual tuition.

Lucas

Not as much ethnic diversity as I would like.

Camille

The steep cost of tuition at California Lutheran University (CLU) is the worst thing about my school. Although CLU is a school that offers a thorough and well-rounded education, and a supportive and warm community, many students struggle to meet financial requirements. For some, like my friend Kayla, expensive tuition makes it impossible for students to live on campus. Kayla is very involved in music and social activities, and living on campus allows for easy participation. Continually rising tuition costs, makes social and educational futures uncertain for a great number of students.

The worst thing about my school is how much tuition cost. This is the worst thing because I think it is a great school that many people should attend because it provides a great learning environment, but many people can't afford to pay and sometimes financial aid isn't enough.

Heather

The worst thing about this school is the price. It is very expensive but they do offer financial aid. If you truly know what you want to do with your life and are seriouse about the career you have chosen then this school is the one for you. Even though the price is up there it is worth it if you put the work in.

Don't get the feel of a big university
