University of Arizona Top Questions

Nothing is too frustrating at the university; however, the campus has right around 40,000 students, making it difficult to acquire individual time with professors. Fortunately for students, office hours seem to be very flexible. The extra jumbo-sized classes seem to be a bit tough as well. Showing up to a 1,000 student, dimly lit, lecture hall located in a theatre without desks only to listen a man who has a headset with batteries that constantly are in need of a replacement has setbacks, but, once you get past all minor issues the class is fun!

The Honors College at the University of Arizona could use some improvement. There are many perks to being enrolled in the Honors college such as priority enrollment, where as a college freshmen I was able to register for classes earlier, and getting to live in the honors dorm; however, the honors college advisors are not very helpful. In addition to the credits required for our major there are also honor credits that are required. Sometimes it is difficult to discern when the two can overlap, but the advisors seem to not be able to help.

The most fustrating thing about the U of A is when you go to the bookstore at the start of each semester to buy your books, it can be pretty chaotic. They aren't the best organized of places.

I was frustrated to find that for a large University, there is not all majors offered.

One of the most frustrating things about my school is that we do not have a lot of on campus apartments. We have housing but it is very limited. I would like for my school to build more apartments closer to the university.

The most frustrating aspect of my school would be the red tape. The bureaucracy is frustrating. I love the individuals, but the are sometimes hard pressed to fully help me because of the rules.

Most definitely the cost most people have some sort of scholarship so it's not that bad. If you are out of state though it is increadably expensive and most will transfer after the first year because of this.

The only thing that bothers me about my school (at the moment anyway) is the website. Sometimes it's a bit difficult to navigate and gets me frustrated. Besides that, I can't really think of anything truly frustrating about my school.

Lots of money goes to the University football team and other sports, when I think it could be better spent improving our science labs and our undergraduate programs to help further our knowledge of the world.

What frustrates me most about UA is the lack of healthy food in the student union. My school claims to have tons of healthy choices, but our union consists of Burger King, Panda Express, Chick Fil-A, and Papa Johns. The few healthy restaurants we have are closed on the weekends. This is extreemly inconvienient for students who are living on campus with a meal plan.
