University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Top Questions

It's quite easy to get lost in the crowd if you only take one or two classes with each professor in your department or transfer in later in your academic career.

The majority of the freshman and sophmore classes have over 100 students in them. This can be a big problem because most students here do not develop any sort of relationship with there professors, which makes it harder to communicate with them if they have problems and also gives them less insentive to do the required work.

One thing I'm disappointed in school is the class atmosphere. Many people kept to themselves, barely talked to others. When I did try to make conversations, many times people would only either just smiled, or gave short replies. This made me dread to go to classes since there were nothing much exciting to look forward to, other than the subject of the class.

The cost of tuition is steadily rising which makes it increasingly difficult for me to afford.

I don't know. I can't think of anything negative to say.

The worst thing about the school is the elevators in the dorms and the cliques that occure right away. However, in the beginning people are very out going and anyone will be your friend pretty much!! So, go out and make friends early!!

It's placement in the largest city in Wisconsin. It's kind of distracting to my studies... I want to do other things besides study sometimes. It's a beautiful city & there's a TON to do... but studying IS more important.

nothing

The worst thing about UW-Milwaukee is the Math Department. The instructors/professors are from other countries and can barely speak any English. The students that struggle with Math in general then have to struggle with trying to understand what the teacher is saying. I have heard from many people that if they could only understand the teacher maybe they would have a chance in their Math class.

The research and labs are reserved for a very select few students.
