Anderson University-Anderson, SC Top Questions

Anderson University is a great college to attend, but if I had to pick one frustrating thing regarding Anderson University it would be night courses. If you are a student who is not locate, then taking more than one class is frustrating. Driving one way to Anderson can become expensive and driving two nights to Anderson University can leave you broke. I suggest one class one night at 4 hours. Instead of one class two nights at 2 hours.

The most frustrating thing about the school is the miscommunication between some adivisors and students. For example, I myself am a pre-engineering major which means that i will only complete the first three years of this degree program at AU and then finish it at another school, which i did know. What wasn't made clear to me and many others in this major is that this meant it would take more than just 4 or 5 years to complete.

I had a very frustrating online class I took there. It was my very first online class, and it took some getting used to the monster course load. Other then that, I have never been frustrated with the school itself.

The most frustrating thing about Anderson University is that there are not a lot of University activities on the weekends.

Being a student athlete it is hard to maintain focus because I am competitive in the sport I participate in but I still need to excel in the classroom. Missing some class time for athletic events is hard for a student athlete to catch up with the school work and having afternoon practices everyday.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that the residential life can seem to be too restricting at times when it comes to seeing someone of the opposite sex. Anderson University has a limited RSVP time for students seeing someone of the opposite sex, which keeps students out of trouble, but sometimes seems like there's not enough time to hang out with students of the opposite sex.

Availiability of classes. Same classes are offered every semester instead of switching classes to be offered at different times.

I don't have any frustrations with my school.

The most frustrating thing about school is being overwhlemed with papers and tests all at one time, especially when you play sports. Many times I would have 5 tests and 5 papers in one week. Each teacher says "I only care about my class, not any of your other classes." So it doesn't really matter if they schedule them at the samw time.

Anderson does not spend their money wisely. Since Anderson keeps taking on too many students they need to spend their money on dorms instead of sod and mulch.

I would have to say that the most frustrating thing about my school would have to be the lack of technological advances at the school. However, if I understand it right, they are working this summer to make some big changes that will help fix this problem!

The most frustrating thing about my school is nothing really. I really havent been frustrated here so far. I really enjoy my school, but if I had to pick something I guess it would be the online history class I have. I'm having a little trouble with the program. Other than that, it's nothing else.

The parking lot and the cost of food when you don't have a meal plan.

There are not alot of extra curricular opportunities here unless you are an athlete. Weekends are usually dead and many students go home. It's alot like high school here. It is hard to find a group of friends because of all the cliques.

The administrative offices are often disorganized. It's hard to find the correct paperwork.

My school is wonderful, however, I am in an accelerated program and it can get very busy. Sometimes I don't hear back from my teachers after I e-mail which has been the main point of contention for me.

Financial Aid tries to draw students to Anderson by offering them large sums of money, but after your first year, you have to fight just to keep them, even if you make fantastic grades.
