Eastern Washington University Top Questions

I don't have anything bad to say about the University that I am attending. I love every part of it, that's why I chose to attend Eastern Washington University.

What I consider to be the worst thing about California Baptist Universtiy would be that they don't offer financial aid through public education programs such as EOP or EOPS for low-income students. Also, its very hard and competitive to find a job on campus and I believe that students should have more options.

I don't think much is bad about my school but if I had to pick something I would say that its location is sometimes difficult in terms of access to various stores, but Spokane is fifteen minutes away and has pretty much any place you may need.

The worst thing about the school is the town it is in. Eastern Washington University is in Cheney, Wa. The town is only a few thousand people without the college. This does not give student much to do outside of the campus. But there is a big city of Spokane only thirty minutes away and there are lots of opportunites for fun there.

There seems to be a campus wide focus on social work/psychology majors, which leads to those buildings getting the newest updates. In comparison to the English/Language/Econ building, the Science building looks like a depressing movie prop designed to instill a sense of nostalgia.

I suppose that the worst thing about my school would be the fact that some of the buildings are very old. While I don’t think there is anything wrong with that, but when I am in a new building it feels much nicer and there’s more lighting.

If i had to consider the worst things about EWU campus life and town living, i would say outdated buildings, less job opportunities, and lack of courses to take. Living on or near campus you can view most buildings as outdated and of need of reconstruction to attrack more students to attend. Another down fall is having no small or company businesses for empolyment, if you are looking to work on campus job opportunities are slim, and the town of EWU doesnt provide much either. Last would be not enough selection for intresting courses a student would want to take.

I didn't like the snow soemtimes, because it kept people indoors, but they did have hot chocolate to remedy that.

I find the administrative staff very unhelpful, because they often won't answer your questions about the school and have lost papers that I was required to turn in. I would appreciate better help and more information.

The worst part about my school is housing and meal plans. The housing at my school can be very gross and dirty. They can be very loud at night and distracting during the day. I found it very hard to stay focused when trying to do my homework in the dorm. The meal plans are way too expensive for the quality of food we receive. The total cost for room and board was about $800 a month. In my opinion this is not very affordable.
