The lack of people my own age. It would be nice to have peers at school but they are all kids to me.

Well for me its emphasis on projects. I don't like speaking in front of the class a lot. Singing or playing an instrument in front of an audience is different for me.

The buildings are bad. Elevators are small and slow. Long time to get to class.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the fact that there are no sports other than club sports. After coming from a performing arts high school, I liked the idea of having a football team with my college. I transferred schools and my previous school had a football team, and it was definitely a different way of life on campus.

Getting the classes I want. The best classes fill up fast.

The most frustrating thing about Columbia College is the cost. This is an amazing school, but I am having a hard time paying for it. I have talked to other students who felt that the cost of this college is way too high as well. Even though I recieve financial aid, I still come up short. Many students drop out because of how difficult it is to pay for Columbia. I am trying my best to find ways to pay off tuition because I enjoy comming to this school everyday.

I don't have a lot of homework (only because of my major) and it makes my friends jealous.

If you live on campus, you live downtown and the rent is insane or you live in the dorm. Also there is nothing to do downtown and the little neighborhoods of chicago are a lot cooler. So the only thing that is frustrating is that there is not a campus persay, but rather an urban campus that finds itself mixed in downtown chicago. I really liked the idea of a campus and living close to it in the traditional 4 year school university campus.

I am frustrated about the fact that a large number of freshman that attend this college really should not be in college at all. Because the entrence requirements are so low students that are not ready for college attend this university in order to keep their parents complacent, to trick themselves into thinking they are moving forward in life, or simply because they do not know what else to do. This causes a large number of 100 level courses to be bloated with students that quite simply do not care about their education.

Transportation around campus not very good
