University of Arizona Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about University of Arizona?

Caitlin

The most frustrating part of school is the lack of information readily available to major seeking students. Most of the time students are left to their own devices to plan their major requirements classes and make sure they graduate on time. Granted, students attending a university are mostly adults and they have the responsibility for their education but it is still a source of frustration, especially to transfer students, to try and scramble to make it in to the classes they didn’t know they needed.

Although it is not the University's fault, my least favorite thing is rising tuition costs. With the recessed economy, the endowment investments the U of A holds were performing poorly and they were forced to raise prices. Regardless of who or what is responsible, I would say that students need to expect a 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} increase in tuition from the time they enter to the time they graduate.

The workload is quite a lot. It is more than what I think I can handle.

The University of Arizona South is a school with a united student body and faculty community. Being a smaller campus of the University of Arizona students are able to create an incredibly personal relationship with teachers. However, being a smaller campus also creates its down sides. One factor that frustrates the most is not having as many traditional campus classes compared to online classes. As the University of Arizona South campus continues to grows, I hope that more teachers work on campus to eventually build additional campus classes.

Again, the slashing of budgets and the rising costs of tuition.

Lydia

The large class size. As a science major, 90{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the classes I have taken have had 200+ students. One class I took even had 1000+students. It can be a nightmare trying to contact the profesor in these classes.

Carlo

The prices of tuition and housing, the lack of information and available jobs for “Non” work study students, and the overall efficiency of the “Undecided” College.

Sydney

I would say the most frustrating thing for me at the University of Arizona is trying to sign up for classes that fit with my schedule. Being a dance major, business minor, I am always over the limit (25+ credits) so searching for "open" classes that actually fit within my schedule can be very frustrating and time consuming.

Krystalle

The only real frustrating thing about the University of Arizona is that the classes are so huge! At my high school, a huge class had 20 students, so the lack of personally knowing your teachers is something that reall strikes me on a day-to-day basis.

Chelsea

The most frustrating thing is having assignments due online on the weekends at a particular time. I find it difficult to accomplish the assignments and submit them on time during the weekend because I am busy with working.
