Virginia Wesleyan College Top Questions

I do not know the worst thing about my school because I have not been for even a day.

The way that the history instructors are lacking in teaching information. They simply assign a veriety of fictional books and treat the class more like a book club and ask how students felt about the book. An example was when we read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. The class was a 17th century history class, we did not cover anything of significance, we simply chatted about the books we read each week. It was a complete waste of time and money. The class became a joke to some and annoyed others.

The worst thing about my school is how expensive it is. I have always looked forward to attending college but the expenses put a lot of pressure on my mom, who is a single parent. Not only is the tuition expensive but so are other things around the school such as the bookstore. I have met a lot of people at the school who love it including myself, however, some students do not continue their education there becuase of the expenses at Virginia Wesleyan.

There is nothing I would call the worst thing at my school. I just wish we had better activities.

Due to the nature of the current online program structure, there is only an opportunity for strong writers to really show their knowledge and skills due to the nature of the discussion questions and project assisgnments as the requirements. Out of the 8 classes I have taken online, none of them have had any forms of testing or exams and feedback from professors is minimal if existant at all. The professors do not have any lectures or personal or professional experience that is contributed. The professors only grade work and compliment students work.

Our school has a problem with internet connections throughout the dorms across campus. This is a frustrating thing to deal with simply because most college student like to do their homework in their rooms, but here at Virginia Wesleyan, students have to fight for a computer in order to complete and submit their assignments.

The worst thing about my school is the area in which it is located becuase down the street is a 711 and there were shootings there in the past and recently. It's not safe to travel outside of the school at night alone. Also, the tuition is pretty high and itsn't reasonable especially if you're living on campus and paying for housing.

The worst aspect of my school is the information available to commuter students. I am a commuter student and I am not informed on information involving commuters.

There are very few things I find bad about my school. However, if I ever had to pick one, it would be the food because sometime it can become repetitive and boring.

The worse thing about VWC is that the cost is a little high. Money is hard to come by, but I know it will be worth it in the end.
