Metropolitan State University of Denver Top Questions

There seems to not be many available school related clubs. The only one I want to join in on but I can't due to schedule conflicts. I would love to be in a business related group which dicusses current related business topics and there is not one available to me.

When I attended Metro, one of the worst things about it was the limited parking. It has been a few years since I attended, so this might have sinced changed. Also, a determining factor in attending Metro is student/ teacher ratio. The classes I attended at Metro were large and didn't allow you to develop a relationship with the professor. However, I considered the fact that Metro's tuition is reasonable, and I believe you get out of the class in reflection to what effort you put into it, no matter how large the class.

I think there should be more structure to how classes get set up and such. Even with academic advisors it's hard for me to stay on track when there is no structure to certain programs. They give you class lists and recommended courses but I think there should be a more indepth outline for students.

I cannot think of anything bad I have experienced or observed on campus or relating to the college itself.

The worst thing about the school i am attending is the fact it is a commuter school and that makes it more challenging to get to know the other students.

I personally feel that most frustrating challenge at Metro State is remedial classes and prerequisites. I completely understand that with out remediation in topics other than your own concentration, you wouldn?t be well rounded. However, I feel requiring students to take dozens of General Studies classes, while paying full price for these classes is nonsense. It's especially difficult considering that we generally have no interest in the class being taught, and this only adds to the challenge. Nearly every college operates this way, but maybe its time we take a look at the system and change it.

I would consider the fact that Metropolitan State College of Denver is a commuter school is the worst thing about the school. I consider to be the worst factor because it makes it difficult for students to find friends that live close. Because everyone lives in different parts of Colorado it can be extremely difficult to find someone who lives near you and can help you study and adjust to college life.

The worst thing about Metro State College is its lack of courses offered in the subject area of electrical engineering. They also lack renowned faculty that are dedicated to high standards in the electrical engineering department.

The worst thing I have experienced so far at Metro is how hard it is to make friends. I live at home and commute to school, so it is hard to get to know people. I believe that having people to discuss classwork with is very important. There have been many times when I have been stuck on a paper or a study guide for a class, and have nobody to consult (other than emailing the teacher). Getting involved and putting yourself out there and talking to people is a necessity.

I think the school would be better off with a wider variety of varsity sports for men and women. Even though its not directly related to the school itself, but the process of receiving funds from loans is a tedious and lengthy process. I think money should be easier to receive in order to be able to further ones education.
