University of Arizona Top Questions

The worst thing about the University of Arizona is trying to find a place to park, as well as the price of a parking pass. Parking garages are often filled before 10:00am, and considering it costs almost $600.00 to buy a parking pass, this can turn into a serious problem.

I think the worst thing about my school would be the lack of maintenance to the curriculum. Some teachers simply administer classes that they have no control over from year to year; often making a nearly impossible class to pass because information is either outdated or, sometimes, it's not up to date with the information in the new edition of the text book.

The worst part of UA would have to be the surrounding area. I have people constantly ask me how I feel about Tucson and my relpy is always, "i'm not a fan of Tucson but I love UA." The problem with Tucson is it's just too dead for a college town. Very little entertainment, all kinds of run down buildings, foreclosed houses, and very little being done to improve all of this. Tucsonis also somewhat of a dirty town simply because it's old and city members have chosen not to take care of it anymore.

The worst thing about the University of Arizona when I attended was the lines for the registrar and financial aid offices. Other than that, it was awesome!

The University of Arizona requires students to take many classes that do not apply to their chosen careers. The general education system here is way over the top.

There is so much going on at this school that sometimes one can get a little lost in the shuffle. Sometimes you have to put your pride aside and ask for help or direction to stay on your two feet. Luckily, there are people all around campus to help when things get a bit overwhelming, it can just be hard to seek their assistance.

The worst thing at the University of Arizona would have to be the lack of students who do not appreciate the Tucson culutre. Since the university is one of the main attractions in Tucson, Arizona the surrounding city can often be overlooked.

It is really hard to choose something negative about my school, because I love it. However, the majority of students here are Caucasian. The minorities such as African American and Latino are no where to be found on campus. There are business and volunteer sororities and fraternities for these minorities, but it appears as though they are not as socially accepted as the majority. Arizona could benefit from including those minorities and making it more socially acceptable to include them in the social sororities and fraternities for example. Even though this is an issue, Arizona is still the best campus.

The wrost thing about the University of Arizona is most likely the phenomena of "GPA padding" where medical and science students have to work harder for a higher GPA while Business and Art students can pad their GPA so it's a 4.0.
