Westminster College-Salt Lake City Top Questions

It's a private school, so most people assume if you go to Westminster, you're rich. So for me, the worst part is being stereotyped as a rich snob.

It is too liberal for my taste.

In my opinion I do not like the type of students that attend Westminster. It is almost as if they do not care about their education and just go because daddy is paying for their college. They are anti social, most do not even get ready for class.

The administration will definitely give you the run-around when it comes to how the school works, "hidden" fees and deadlines, poorly planned events, etc. I have gotten emails for deadlines for something administrative 3 hours away. When I try to get more information about something or ask why somethig is the way it is, I get my email or question forwarded around campus just to get a nonsensical answer or basically that noone cares enough about me. No wonder not many alumns give back .

Recently they have been focusing all of their energy on recruiting as many new freshmen as possible. As a result the upperclassmen feel as if the college doesn?t care about them anymore.

The meal plan. It is a small school so not much variety.

the cost I feel keeps going up and I feel traped, almost like i was tricked into something. I was told I would never pay more then ten grand a year I know have a $1500 payment each month. Sometimes it's hard to walk from one building to another with out seeing someone you know, like a small town, everyone knows everyone.

I think the lack of public transportation that comes by Westminster is a problem. I am an aviation student and I think the students could work together with Westminster to find ways in which to get transportation from the college to the airport for flight blocks. If I rode the public bus it would take me an hour and a half! If we had an alternate mode of transportation we could easily save not only money but the environment as well!
