University of Nevada-Las Vegas Top Questions

I haven't found anything that frustrated me about UNLV thus far. My advisors have been helpful, my classes have been engaging, and there are plenty of times to choose from for classes so that my schedule well for me.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that it's not in Los Angeles, where I'm originally from. Vegas is an amazing city with tons of opportunity, but it's just not home.

The sciences are often overlooked and not much funding is provided. Although it is adequate, more can definitely be done.

The most frustrating thing about the school is the lack of parking on certain days, as there are a lot of concerts, meetings, and events that go on on-campus, and the university reserves some of the best parking for those events rather than for students who pay for a parking permit every year.

Some of the general education courses are useless.

The most frustrating thing about UNLV is the transition from high school standards to college standards. High school really is a joke compared to the bar set for you on the college level. Emphasis from your social life becomes more focused on your education and career. At times it can be frustrating not being able to hang out with your friends as much. The only specific UNLV frustration is traffic on the way to school if you do not live on campus.

paper work processing takes way too long. i turned in a transcript with credits from another college twice, a year and half ago and about 4 months ago, and they are still not in the system that they're taken.

The most frustrating thing academic wise is there are a few really good professors, but there are a lot of really bad ones. Many professors are ethnic, cannot speak english, and have terrible teaching methods. I personally cannot learn in a big classroom enviroment and there are many large classes as well.

The most frustrating part of my school is finding the time to do everything. I am involved in a fraternity, christian fellowship group, work 20 hours a week, and have to do my school work as well. So it is very time consuming.
