California State University-Chico Top Questions

The most frustrating thing about my school is that are hardly any jobs available. Being a freshman with no car makes it hard to get around. Therefore, an on-campus job would be ideal however; the students with work-study have a huge advantage over those who do not.

CSU, Chico is in the middle of no where in California. This makes it hard to adjust to the school when you first move there. It takes a good year or more to appreciate the community and the school.

It was rather difficult to find a job in the area. If you did not get hired in early August, chances are that you would not find a job, other than maybe something seasonal.

Probobly not being able to get a job on camput since I am a freshmen they give the jobs to the seniors first

The most frustrating thing about Chico State would probably be the ongoing reputation of it being a "party school." It's so frustrating to me because I am a serious student wanting to graduate from a good 4-year university that provides my major (Pre-nursing onto Nursing) and Chico is a great school for that! The school isn't providing the parties, the students are!

The reputation. i am afraid that when i go to apply for jobs they will think i did not take my education seriously because i went to Chico State.

The campus size is frustrating. Most classes in a particular major are clustered in one area, but general education classes can be spread out all over the campus. The ten to fifteen minutes is not always enough time to travel between classes.

The weather (which no one can control), its either 100 degrees or 45 degrees so students are either burning in the summer walking to classes or freeze in the winter.

Being a somewhat smaller school, it can be frustrating trying to make a class schedule that 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} satisfies all your needs. I get most of the classes I want but the times aren't always the most convenient.

I would not consider school frustrating. I really enjoy it. The frustrating thing for me was the impact on my schoolwork by a medical condition that affected both my memory and sleep pattern, which in turn played havoc with my performance in my classes.
