What do you consider the worst thing about Southern Virginia University? Why?

william

The cost is the factor that I dislike most about it.

jessica

The internet connection at my dorm is probably the worst thing about my school. The connection is faulty and can be agonizingly slow making it difficult to download assignments or print reports for class.

Collin

The worst thing about my school would most likely be the facilities. They are very outdated and due to the institute being a small private university, they don't have too much money to spend on nice additional facilities that aren't high priority. Besides that, some people don't like how small the school is, although many do. Also, the school is located in a small town kind of in the middle of nowhere. It is very beautiful but some find it hard to find many things to do in their spare time.

The worst thing about the school, is the internet connection. I know peole may think differently, thinking that the Honor Code is the worst, or that the school is small is a bad thing. But the surrounding community is wonderful, and mostly everyone is friendly. But as a computer geek, I would say the internet is terrible. Sometimes it barely works! That is the worst thing that I can come up with about the school, becuase everything else is fantastic.

Brian

I consider myself very fortunate to attend this university. This university is not perfect however and my main concern is the cost of the school. Even with scholarships and a part-time job, I find myself without enough. Times have been incredible hard for my family so sometimes I feel as if I am barely getting by. The quality of education is high here and if I manage to finish school then I believe I will be well off. At times I wonder if I will ever be able to finish school because of its high costs.

The worst thing is that not all credits are transferable, but that's how it is with almost any college or university.

Alaura

The worst thing at Southern Virginia University is that on Sundays the campus cafe is closed.

michael

classrooms are small and while this can be a benefit (more one on one learning) it is also kind of a hinderance.

David

The worst thing about the school is the location... This is an extremely small town and so without proper transportation, there are not too many options to get away from school life.

Cara

Sometimes the campus can feel "too small" and it can be somewhat difficult to escape for a while if you do not have a car.
