The University of Texas at San Antonio Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about The University of Texas at San Antonio? Why?

Lynnsie

The worst thing I would say about UTSA is not enough parking, but other than that its a great school.

The worst thing about UTSA has got to be its websites & wireless interface (AirRowdy). We have to maintain an email, ASAP (Automated Student Access Program), Blackboard, AirRowdy, and innumerable course specific accounts. Technologically speaking, it would be relatively simple to integrate all of these services so that only a single username & password was needed for all of these, but, as the system is currently set up, most of these require a separate username and password. Also, the website itself, utsa.edu, is poorly designed and difficult to navigate, especially for anyone viewing the site for the first time.

One thing that dissappoints me with UTSA is the lack of activities there are on campus because being a freshman and living in the dorms I get bored and wish there was a little more going on on campus on the weekends and such! But maybe I just havent looked around enough!

Brandon

The worst thing about my school is that there isnt a good teacher student relationship. I have to go through so many channels just to try and e-mail my professors.

Jessica

The campus police. They are pretty stingy.

Remi

The worst thing about my school would have to be the selection of majors. At most public universities you can expect a wide variation of majors. However, my university only allows a certain number of majors, most of them being the most common. If more majors were available, then I believe that a lot more students would be happier.

Crystal

The worst thing about this school is the rooming space. For some reason the housing complexes full up, so apply early.

Mary

The extra fees (why do I have to pay a parking fee when I don't even own a car, why do I get charged a fee for the rec center when I do not use the facility), have to take the core curriculum even after I have declared a major, no place to park, no true campus directory, the buildings are not clearly named, the library is inefficient both in aesthetics and quality.

My friends and I have always thought UTSA as a cool campus, but could feel more like an actual college. By that, we all agree that without the univeristy having a football team, it does not quite satisfy the full college campus experience. Although UTSA will be getting a football team in 2011 and has many other sporting events to attend, the absence of a football team is needed in order to encourage school spirit in the students and have a popular event to look forward to at the university.

Parking on campus is a problem. The overflow lots are starting to see crowding.
