University of Cincinnati-Main Campus Top Questions

It's so big. Sometimes I sign up for a class and then end up dropping one because there is no way to get from one side of the campus to the other. It can also be frustrating because some lecture halls are so big with 100-200 students. Which doesn't allow for much teacher-student interaction.

There are not many concessions or opportunities for adult or non traditional learners which can make the process of completing your degree dificult. For example; if you would like to study abroad, which is usually a younger student's opportunity, but you are an adult learner, you must make it happen for yourself. This involves a lot of independent research online to find the oppotunities that work for you. There are many instances like this but with hard work and determination you can make it happen.

The most frustrating thing about the University of Cincinnati is that sometimes it can be hard to reach people in the financial aid office. Usually you get an automated system when you call.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the tution amount, and the other expenses that it costs to attend there. With not having too much money, I've found it very hard to come up with the finances to pay for things.

The programs are all on a very tight schedule and not very flexible for people that change majors. I ran into a problem last year that resulted in me switching majors from Exercise Science to Psychology to Undecided/Business. I had found out that the school had placed me into a general Exercise Science Program instead of the right one without consulting me and it was going to cost me an extra year and a lot of money to fix the mistake and they did not apologize fo the huge inconvinience.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the cost to go there. I feel like the money I am putting in to go there is not worth the experience I recieved from attending this institution. The housing cost to much for poor quality living arrangments and I felt as though the quality of education I am recieving is subpar. This school does a poor job of making the students feel aware and wanted at this school. I feel as though once I give them my money, they got what they wanted and no longer seek to help me succeed.

The lack of diversity among the class room.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the amount of required classes one must take in order to obtain a degree. I would have prefered to have had more liberty to choose more classes that I am interested in, rather than the classes in the requirement book.

The most frustrating thing would have to be not enough one on one time with your teachers. It is a very large university, with 200 in one of my classes, and I would love more time to talk with and get to know my professors.

The most frustrating thing about my school.....the 4hr driving distance from home.
