Northern Kentucky University Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about Northern Kentucky University?

Shannon

The most frustrating thing about my school is that it is so difficult to put myself out there. Like many other schools, they brag about the number of groups and organizations on campus, but whenever I try and attend or join, they are all very exclusive.

Radha

I have no complaints so far. The advisors, staff, faculty, and even the students are all very friendly. It's all about the 50/50. If you give your half of hard work and dedication to your school and community, the other half(staff,faculty,etc.) will meet you there.

Spencer

The most frustrating thing about my school is that prices, especially the amount you have to pay for each class will get a little higher as time goes on. I really should have noticed it sooner as well as I kept attending each semester.

Elizabeth

NKU is a commuter school, so the on-campus and weekend life is not very exciting or social; it's hard to get people to stay.

Shana

None that I can think of. NKU is the best school I've ever attended. I would recommend it to anyone.

Andrew

To be honest, I love going to NKU. There are some things that bother me when I attend, but they have nothing to do with the school. I struggle mainly to afford going to school and traveling to school, as both are very costly. I hope that I will be financially stable in the next couple of years so that I can live on campus and focus on school primarily. This will help me not only to continue getting better grades, but to move on to graduate school and eventually receive my Doctorate.

Kristy

The most frustrating thing about my school is that there is not much fun social events for all students because there is mostly events for the students who are a part of the Greek life.

Julie

The most frustrating thing about Northern Kentucky University is the parking and amount of traffic on campus. It is always had to find a spot! Also, the food can be expensive if you eat there every day. Also, the advisors have not really helped me choose my classes. It is very hard to get in with an advisor on time! You also have to book an advising appointment before you register for classes. This is hard to fit into your schedule sometimes. Also, I do not like the smoking on campus they should be more strick on the new rule!

Curtis

We have a large number of commuters at our school who simply come to class and then go home. The only students that get involved on campus are those that are members of greek life. The school lacks the ability to get the student body as a whole, involved. The crowds at sporting events are small and the campus is completely dead on the weekends. This is something that I think needs to be addressed to increase the overall attractiveness of our school. Students choose not to come here based on the boring campus life and large number of commuters.

Amanda

The most frustrating thing about Northern Kentucky University is the cost of tutiton and the difficulty of getting fininacial aid to help pay for the schooling.
