University of Central Arkansas Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about University of Central Arkansas? Why?

Kalesha

The worst thing would probably have to be the required courses. Some courses that we have to take should not be required and when transferring to another school will not transfer.

Hana

The worst thing about the University of Central Arkansas is the availability of parking. There is always some type of construction going on that takes away another parking lot. There is a very limited amount of parking spots and sometimes it is hard to find one.

Jordan

Liberal political views.

Richard

The worst thing about UCA is that it leans far toward an aesthetically beautiful school than to a more useful one. For example, during my freshman year, a six million dollar fountain was built to 'beautify' a portion of the campus. There is now a dorm that has be fenced off because it is too delapidated to move anyone into. They need to get their priorities straight: students matter more than pretty things.

The book stores have extremely high prices for the books required for classes. And then they only give you not even half of the money you paid back for them, when you, in a lot of classes didn't need the book but for maybe five times the whole semester! It's extortion, and i think it needs to stop!

Jaclyn

The fact that we are in financial debt and we are spending money on things we don't need.

Whitney

The only thing that I dont like that my school does is making you take courses all over again that you took in high school. Most of that stuff is fresh on my mind so why take it again in college. I know that University of Central Arkansas are not the only ones that have this but i believe that having to take these classes slows you down for what you are wanting to accomplish if your trying to get out of school on time or early. Maybe take some of the basics: biology, chemistry, and a math thats it.

Ben

Nothing really except for maybe the parking situtaion, there isn't quite enough at the moment.

Laura

The lack of things to do off campus.

Tori

It is absolutely too big and we are continuing to grow by allowing students who should not get in to this school get in. UCA has been progressively accepting students who are not up to the previous set guidelines based on acedemics. There is no parking, the halls, classrooms, and food courts are so crowded they are almost unusable.
