University of Arizona Top Questions

The most frustrating aspect of the University of Arizona is the lack of flexibilty. Many popular classes ar only offered at one specific time and to a certain number of students, making them virtually impossible to enroll in. The lack of flexibility carries into the offered modes of instruction. Only a select few classes are avilable online and/or during Winter or Summer break. This makes it difficult to take additional credits and get ahead in college.

Trying to find enough financial aid to pay for classes and other things that involve school like parking or books.

The most frsustrating thing about my school is the genral education requirements needed to graduate with any major. Most of the classes feel as though they make students do busy work. And many general education classes are not interesting for me; they don't dive into engineering.

The most frustrating thing about my school has to be that it is not tobacco free. There are people smoking on campus and I can't stand the smell but most people don't care. I wish that it was a smoke free campus because it just bothers me. That is the only thing that frustrates me about the U of A. Everything else is perfect!

So much homework and exams

The most frustrating thing about my school is parking. It cost up to 600 dollars a year for a permit and you may not recieve a permit. You get put on a waiting list for up to a year. Also, even if you have a permit, you are not always guaranteed a spot.

The most frustrating thing about the University of Arizona, is the current construction being done throughout the school year. Currently a rail system is being developed for a trolley, which will be a great transportation system for students on campus. Although, the noise from the construction and the detours on campus made it very difficult for students to navigate around campus as well as study in certain buildings and residence halls.

Signing up for classes online can be very frustrating. Each of the years have a different date to sign up at the same time. It is hard because a lot of the same people want the same classes and everyone is trying to get them at the same time which causes for overload of the system and the students do not get certain classes.

The most frustrating thing about schools is all of the readings. All of my classes will assing approxamently 40 pages of reading a night and with say 5 classes that is approxamently 120 pages a night. Its frustrating because its mostly boring textbook reading and its hard to understand what your reading. Also trying to figure out what to pay attention for in the readings gets very frustrating. The time it takes to do all of the readings and to make sure you have a good understanding of it is very tedious.

I think the most frustrating bit about my school is the amount of people present. While I think the school size is good, there are too many people present.
