University of New Mexico-Main Campus Top Questions

Not all of your professors have the title of professor. Especially if you are freshman or sophomore. Many professors are students who recently graduated. Moreover is really unsafe living on-campus.

The worst thing about my school is the quality of the advisement center. The advisors for the undergraduates can be rude and unhelpful.

I think the worst thing about the University of New Mexico is the worst thing about any school. Deciding. Deciding who you want to be for the rest of your life. As soon as it's etched on your transcripts it's there for life. The only thing different about UNM is that next to my decision is a UNM logo. It sealed my fate and that's what I hate most about it. I can't change who I am. What if in thirty years I want to be a teacher? UNM says I cannot. That's the worst.

The advisors at UNM don't really help you. They tell you what classes that you should take and then desmiss you after they are done. Not bothering with your questions or concerns.

Honestly I dont like the way that chemistry is taught here we have TA's that dont speak english and that is a safety hazard. There will always be that one kid who could get hurt. The security here they dont have an available service where they could walk new students to thier classes without having to wait 30min. Odd enough the school is located in the worst part of town near a street called Central. Albuquerque is very dangerous also I have almost gotten kidnaped in broad daylight.

Teenagers. I hate them. They're dumb.

On campus, there is a lot of activities to be involved in, but if you do not get involved early on it is hard to break the barrier and be accepted.

I would say the tuition rates for out of state students and the availability of financial aid, grants, or scholarships. I am the youngest of 4 children, and my parents are definitely having a difficult time putting me through school. I wish I qualified for more financial aid or grants. I wish my worries as a college student went as far as studying for midterms and exams, but in reality, I have to worry about whether I will have enough money to go register for classes next semester.

I feel like our advisors could be a lot more attentive and the job opportunities should be more available.
