Its in the city, which has its pros and cons, one of the cons being that you don't really feel like you're on a college campus. I personally wish this was different because I really like the environment at big ten schools andother state schools. What I mean by that is DePaul doesn't have a football team, the basketball team isn't that good, the school comradery environment is missing because the students don't have a common thing to rally around and promote school spirit.

The worst thing about the school is that it is located in the city. Because of this I do not get to experience the whole college town feeling that many of my friends at huge universities experience on a daily basis. DePaul also doesn't have a football team or a basketball arena on campus, so I never have the united student body feeling either. Although, many students do come support the women's basketball team from time to time. These issues aside, DePaul is still a great institution, and I am happy with my decision to attend.

I have yet to find "the worst thing" about DePaul. The classrooms are active and informal, housing settings are friendly, and the campus overall is home to goal oriented students who all want to reach the common goal of being successful.

The worst thing about DePaul would probably be its location, its located near the city and therefore a lot of crimes happen in that area. Certain crimes range from theft to sexual harassment to rape. Just not my type of scene.

The onl bad thing about my school is the amount of money that it costs to go there.

I feel the worst thing about our school would have to be our school spirit. This causes by the fact that there are a lot of commuter students that attend DePaul and it is hard for them to get involved or connected. For instance, I know a lot of clubs have meetings at night when classes are all done but if a commuter student has morning classes then there is no reason for them to stay all day just to go to the meeting. Also the travel time to get to and back is a long time.

The worst thing about DePaul is the cost of tuition. I wish I would have gone to community college first and then transfer.

I really don't have any negatives about my school. If we don't have a good experience with one of our classes, we express that in the course review at the end of each semester.

I don't think it should be labeled worst, maybe the least great thing, but what bookstores charge for book is pretty high.

Even within the vase city of Chicago, in some ways non natives of Chicago can feel isolated in the geography. In close relation, there are many commuter students. I feel like everyone loses out of the full college experience in such as urban jungle.
