What's the most frustrating thing about University of Colorado Colorado Springs?

Estell

In all honesty, there is nothing substantially frustrating that makes such a frequent occurrence at my University. If I had to choose, the most frustrating aspect would be the lack of communication on campus that involves on-campus events and clubs.

The most frustrating thing about UCCS is the lack of student life since it consists of mostly commuter students. The parking situation is also very frustrating as there is little parking at the school and the shuttle system is inconsistent.

Kaylee

The walk between classes in the winter when it's cold and icy. As a commuter student, this walk is definitely caused by the lack of parking spaces in certain lots (even with the most premiere parking pass parking isn't guarenteed in any of the lots).

The most frustrating thing about going to school at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs is the parking. The campus sells more parking passes then there are parking spots so the struggle to find parking is great. Also the price for parking is the highest out of any school I have ever attended. It is not just the students that have to pay and compete for parking it is also the staff. There is a shuttle that you can park and ride however parking near the shuttle drops is also difficult to find.

The expensive parking & the lack of parking is the most frustrating thing about UCCS.

Jaclyn

I wish more people would take the student body more seriously. The professors and students here are trying very hard and are very smart.

Nicole

There are so many interesting classes to take that its hard to take all of them if you want to graduate in 4 years

Caroline

The only thing I find frustrating is not being able to pay for housing. I am hoping this problem will soon be solved.

Regan

The most frustrating thing, is also the most exciting thing. Our school is growing very fast so many things are crowded and classes fill very fast. This is just a thing that we have to deal with for a few years as accomadations are being made to help the large number of students fit better into our community atmosphere!!!

The dorms are really expensive. Also, if you're not staying in the dorms, parking passes are a drag. It's about $170 per semester for a full pass I think, and if you're on a budget like me, you'd rather not spring for that. I've been using the free lot, which requires a shuttle, and you have to get there earlier to make sure you're on time. Also, the financial aid office isn't ver streamlined. Get all your finances done early if you're going, and call to check that it's confirmed.
