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?

Mia

I think fondly of my school and have no disrespects about the quality and potential of achieving greatness.

Melissa

The worst thing about my school is not getting more personal assistance in my classes. I was in a classroom with too many students and not being able to even work in groups or have any kind of help from the professor made my first years at the university difficult.

Since it is a smaller school, sometimes it feels that the resources and technologies available are limited. There is a lot of room for improvement, but advancing the school in terms of population may not be the right way to go. The fact that the school is smaller allows for more focused attention on that that a student population should focus on.

Julian

Well due to the rapid pace of growing students I would say its the expenses that are quickly climbing with the student body.

Tony

The parking situation is a really bad thing, it seems that there are far more students than parking spots available. A way to fix that would be to offer off campus parking and have a shuttle bus pick students every 5-15 minutes.

Tahnee

Maybe because this is my first semester at UTSA, but I wish they were more encouraging when it comes to academic advising. When I spoke to my advisor, she told me I don't really need to see her every semester, and that most students don't. Of course she said that if I wanted to I could, but didn't seem too keen on the idea. I like knowing that I'm on track with my classes, so I wish there was a little more encouragement there.

Carmen

I don't consider anything wrong with my school because their is really nothing wrong with my school. well actually the only wrong thing about my school is that there is a lot of students that smoke a lot and they are everywhere on campus and well you partically smell cigarretes all day and that is really bad for some students, especially students that have health problems. So I will really appreciate for some students to slow down in smoking on campus. But really, smoking is the only thing that is worst about my school because everything else is good.

Stephanie

The class sizes are sometimes very big for your basic courses. It makes it hard to get a good grasp on what you're learning about!

Rebecca

The athletic department uses students' money to provide fun activities and trips for athletes that regular students do not get the opportunity to benefit from.

Madeline

The worst thing is parking! I work all week long, so I take classes very early in the morning, which is the worst time to find parking. Luckily, the University has several shuttles that will pick you up in designated areas and drop you off in front of certain parts of the University.
