Johnson & Wales University-Providence Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Johnson & Wales University-Providence? Why?

Derrick

I believe it would be the cost, as with any school. I don't think any school should be as expensive as they are, Students today in this world need to have an education after High School and it should be attainable to any student that wishes to go to school and not be in debt when they graduate.

It is hard for commuter students to make many friends most the students live on campus so they see each other often and become fast friends. I myself am a transfer and a commuter so its a different experience then those who live there and who have always gone there, There is also the fact that Johnson and Wales does tri-mesters instead so semester though it is nice to get done with class faster the breaks are always different from all the other schools and its alot of information in a short amount of time.

Nothing I love My School

In my opinion the worst thing about Johnson and Wales University is that while there are a wide number of majors and concentrations available, if you take a concentration and decide that you rather make that your major you do not always have that option. For example psychology, there is a concentration offered, but not a major. If you were attending Johnson and Wales and started taking a series of psychology classes and wanted to change your major you would have to transfer, but leaving Johnson and Wales is not something anyone would want to do.

The worst thing about my is that there aren't enough hands-on activities. I feel class would be much more interesting if we had more activities such as in-class experiments, working with tools and devices used in that area of study. I believe schools as a whole would benefit from activities such as these and student interest would peak also.

The worst thing about my school is the tuition price because its too expensive. Not all of us can afford it.

Nathan

The worst thing about Johnson adn Wales is that the school is not as real life practical as I think they should be. Their goal is to make everyone above the professional standards of everyone else, so that their students look the best. But, it is to the point where they are sacrificing quality of work for it.

Takara

I honestly can't think of something wrong with my school. I mean of course all schools have their flaws, but that's any and everywhere. I guess the dorms could be alot nicer, especially for the cost, and the food in the dining halls could be better, but those are minor issues.

Students care more about partying than particpating in class work. We do a lot of work in teams and it's difficult to find a team that doesn't put a majority of the work on you.
