The only real frustrating thing is a blessing and a curse really. The main campus is located in a rather small town which means that the university is the main part and almost the only part of the town. They also have a campus in the closeby city but the classes there are very limited. They provide buses between the campuses free of charge, however. So it is nice to have your classes in a more remote area (less distractions) but the drive is a pain sometimes.

I am frustrated with the scheduling process for classes. I have not been able to sign up for the classes that I need to take in a orderly and timely fashion. The classes are all full by the time that I have been allowed to schedule for the next year.

Our library is old, while it is very helpful and contains a wealth of information and documentation, I do not enjoy going there because it is unappealing to me. I can reach most documents through the website, so it is not an issue usually, but I enjoy the idea of a library to study in, the quietness, studious atmoshpere etc.

For me and a lot of people I know, scheduling our classes was slightly difficuly. Grand Valley emphasized that they were very good at helping students decide on a major and choose thier classes, yet I did not recieve much help. I went to one of the cousiling deptatments and they said they could not help me and did not give me guidance to where to go. However, the system is easy enough to figure out by ones self and I must say that being a dual major makes things harder to do. than someone with only one major.

Getting a schedule that works best for you, themes that get in the way of your major, finding the perfect major for you.

Projects at the end of the semester and lack of diversity.

I'm older so it's hard to relate to all these teeny-boppers. They think they can get a bachelor's degree and jump into an $80000/year job. They also are way to peppy.

You really need to be on top of previous courses in order to do well in harder classes later. Everything builds on top of each other, it is very progressive.

The most frustrating thing about Grand Valley is the lack of financial aid that it is able to provide. Although, I do believe that the lack of financial aid is due to the depleting economy in Michigan.

It is very frustrating when the bus is full and you're trying to get to class downtown on time. Also not all of the proffessors are wonderfully nice to you.
