What's the most frustrating thing about California State University-Fullerton?

Alyssa

I'm in the honors program and I have priority for the classes I want to enroll in. But, if you aren't in the honors program or aren't an athlete it is very difficult to get the classes you need and the system is confusing. Also, I feel as if there are too many students for such a small campus and the parking is ridiculous.

Kaitlin

Parking.

Sonali

I would say the most frustrating thing about going to school is not have advice about what to do and what not to do. I feel that if I knew what route to take my life would not have ended up this way. It seems like I went through it blindly.

Brittani

The most frustrasting thing about Fullerton is the parking. Its beyond crazy.

Michael

Everyone was attached to their phones. People did not communicate with strangers/random people any more.

Nishma

Expensive parking permits

Leann

It would have to be the parking situation. CSUF is known as a commuter school, so sometimes you might have to wake up a little early to find a good parking spot!

Tara

The most frustrating thing about the school is that there are not many career oppurtunity support after you graduate.

Kenneth

The most frustrating thing about our campus is that it is very difficult for incoming transfer students to get in touch with with academic councilers who might be able to help them map out their futures. I feel that my university is understaffed and that by hiring more employees would better be able to help new students.

It was a good experience but the campuse was under construction and there was no communication between the departments and the admissions so graduating was challenging.

Maria

The traffic in the surrounding freeways and main streets is awful in the morning, and rush hour in the afternoon is hell. It's advisable to get to school early, even if you don't have a class at that time; parking is terrible, even though they've tried to accomodate for the students with three parking structures.

Jennifer

The most frustrating thing about my school is how they lose my papers at the financial office. It cause me to not be able to enroll for the next semester. and it also cause me to not be able to get my loans. I don't want to waste my time waiting in line to tell the financial aid office that I have things on my to-do list, when I already turned it in.

Maryellen

The students who do not do the readings, so when it comes time for discussions, there are many awkward silences which usually causes class to be cancelled.

Samantha

The most frusterating thing about California State University, Fullerton is the parking problem. Because it is a commuter school, most of the students and faculty drive to school from other areas of California. Because of this, parking is essential in the school, however, it is lacking of what it needs and is expected to be. The parking lots on campus are usually filled up early in the day, and those with later classes are required to attend school earlier to look for parking spots or to park in nearby neighborhoods.

Nicole

t he thing really frustrating about my school is that the on campus book store (if the books are ordered online) takes a long time to actually ship the books out to the buyers, meaning that if the book is needed i dont have it. Also, the parking is extremely limited due to construction making it very hard to even find a parking spot starting at 10 a.m.

Christine

Parking! Parking! Parking! The majority of one the largest lots has been cleared build more on-campus housing. More on-campus housing is being built in the midst of our school budget crisis, to possibly draw in more out of state students, in order to collect more fees. But what about the rest of us that have been here all of our lives? It doesn't feel very fair. Also, why are the parking permits so expensive?

Jessica

The most frustrating thing is that it is extremely difficult to make friends because everyone already has a group from high school. Most people come to school and leave right after their classes are done, they do not talk to others or go out to do things. It is a very business like atmosphere.

Pauline-Marie

The most frustrating thing is finding a parking space since it is so limited. At 7:00 AM, most of the parking lot is already filled and it takes almost half an hour to find a spot. Most times, students park so far away, it takes another good twenty minutes just to walk to class. Everyday is like a battle to find that one spot.

Blanca

Parking at the beginning of the semester is the most frustrating thing about Cypress College. Besides that nothing else seems frustating about the school.
