What do you consider the worst thing about Oakwood University? Why?

Lauren

The worse thing about my school would be financial aid. Although every student receives financial aid, the help doesn't account for half of tuition. It's difficult paying off the semester and having to clear out items out of our dorm room really puts a lot of stress on us as students. I wish that my school offered better financial aid and kept track of the aid as well. I have received bills where the amount to be paid is incorrect because financial aid has made a mistake.

long wait for enrollment

I honestly can't say anything bad about Oakwood College. I love it!

Mary

The worst thing about my school is something that is extremely hard to think of. However I would have to say it is the fact the classes are so small and the teacher will notice when you are there or not.

I would consider the organization of the financial aid offices and clearing the students to live in the dorm is the worst thing about my school. In order to live off campus you are required to be 22 years old which most students that can only clear to get in school is younger than 22. The president of Oakwood University said to some extent, " Dorm housing is where all the money comes from." It is very hard to financially clear at my school and a lot of students cannot clear by the 2nd or 3rd year.

The registration process because it is very tedious and the administration does not always keep up with their business as they should which greatly affects the students trying to clear for the school semester.

My school is far to expendsive, and the credits do not transfer to other colleges if a student is unable to afford the following semester. Oakwood university does not get a large amout of government money because it is a private school; students are left with thousands of dollars to pay out of their own pockets. I have to come up with five-thousand dollar by next semster or I have to drop out of collage.

The worse thing about my school was the sometimes bad usage of funds. Funds were allocated for things that werent necessarily necessities or even helping to the students.

Peter

the worst thing about my school is that it is such a sheltered environment. there is an 11:30 curfew set for all of the dormitories and there are only 2 gates that go on and off campus which makes it hard if you are in a rush. you have to show ID in order to get through the gates, so if u lose your ID it makes it that much harder to get on campus.

The school doesn't look like most Universities it has a more down to earth type of theme to it. At first you may not like it but after awhile you will appreciate it.
