Oakland University Top Questions

The drive would have to be the worst thing right now. Im one credit away from registering for classes a few days earlier. Im hoping to get more online classes to save on gas and miles.

I feel as though the financial aid office staff could be much more sensitive to the often frustrating topic of financing a hefty university tuition bill. Whether it be speaking with more compassion, or having a generally friendly tone, I believe that these small gestures could help faciliate a more pleasant financial aid experience.

Sometimes, the class sizes are too big and you really need to choose your instructors carefully in order to succeed in the class. Also, the textbooks that are required for classes by the professor are very costly, especially if you have to buy them at the school bookstore.

The worst thing about Oakland University is the math department. Our math department is apparently under investigation due to the 80{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} failure rate amongst students enrolled in math courses.

Unfortunately, I believe the worst thing about my school is the Financial Aid Services because they do not make their tuition payment criterion very clear which leads to stress and confusion for both students and parents.

The worst thing about my school are the tuition rates. Although they're considerably lower than many other four-year institutions, I still find them alarmingly high. In particular, I dislike how relatively few scholarships are available to the student populace. I would be less concerned about the price of tuition if I knew that I didn't have to worry about having a large amount of debt after I graduated. As it is, however, due to this dearth of scholarships available to me, I have to take out loans. This vastly increases my anxiety about my schooling.

I would have to say that the worst thing about my school would have to be the seemingly restricted access to students in regards to registration and maintaining good standing for classes. There are so many guidelines for students to follow and students must diligently seek information from many resources in order to obtain an understanding of these guidelines.

The worst thing about Oakland University is the lack of diversity between the students. Most people go to college with the hope that they will meet new and interesting people; unfortunately, Oakland does not provide much of an opportunity for this. I think my college experience would be much more fulfilling and enriching if my classes were filled with dedicated, diverse individuals.

There are so many events held on campus that are not advertised at all.

The worst thing about Oakland University is the workload. I feel that in the program I'm in especially, there are high expectations for students and the amount of homework may be a bit too much to ask of them.
