California State University-Sacramento Top Questions

Budget cuts and the fact that the people who can change it live so close since this is capitol city.

The cost of school is very hard to swallow when it is nearly impossible to work while attending the nursing classes. The cost includes: the books, the equipment necessary for the major, and tuition.

I would have to say the worst thing about my school is that there is not enough classes to sign up for. They keep cutting classes and for students that is hard on them because they have to spent longer in school. If they stay longer in school then they have to pay more.

the worts thing about my school is the building and that some profesors are not good in comunicating

I dislike the fact that the campus does not have a whole lot of selection of food. When try to eat healthy it makes it very difficult when there are round tables, Burger Kings and Panda Expresses right on campus.

I think the worst thing about this school is probably the way resources are spent.

the worst thing about my school is that you can not wear jeans in the gym

The ability to add classes. Some teachers dont give certain students (graduating seniors) priority and I strongly believe that they should. Nothing is worse than being a few months away from graduation and not getting all of the classes you need. This hasn't happened to me personally but many of my friends have experienced this unfortunate circumstance.

The worst thing about Sac State is the fact that it's hard to get into the classes that you need. Classes fill up fast and many students have a lot of stress during the time of registration. For this reason, some students have to stay in school longer than they need to. However, the professors are usually pretty good at enrolling those who absolutely need the class, so that's a good thing, but you cannot avoid the stress of not knowing whether you will get into the class or not.

Since this is a commuter school there is not a stong school community around CSUS. On campus you get a little of it, but the school is intermixed within the regular community.

Some of the bathrooms need updating.

I am having a great experience so far but for me the negative is that they don't offer many evening or night classes. I am in a position where I have to work full time to be able to go to school and it is very hard to manage between my job and school scheduling.

Honestly, my school is pretty great the only thing i do not enjoy so far is the commute but that is more of a personal problem.

This is hard to say without offending anyone. However, some teachers teaching styles and personalities can frustrate and effect your attitude in that class. Some teachers are too proud and it seems that the papers and discussions have to be toward their interest, not your own opinion. Other teachers are knowledgeable in their subject but their teaching style is not effective. Teachers have the power to instill knowledge, passion and wisdom. They are the ones we look up to, therefore, they must be knowledgable, wise and encouraging.

Where it is located, the commute from my house is 40 minutes there and 40 minutes back. If it were located somewhere more accessible I don't know what I could say that would be negative about Sac State.

Their is nothing bad about Sacramento state. I have onlu been completed one semester their, so i am bearly getting to know this school, and adjusting to the college life. So far i really enjoy studing at Sacramento State. The only thing about living there is the hot weather in the summer, other than that i got nothing bad to say about this school.

One of the worst features about Sacramento State University is the amount of students in a single classroom. The state budget cuts have forced the school to reduce the amount of available classes while increasing tuition. The larger classes also make it a challenge to have one on one time with the professor which is essential to becoming a better student.

As a new student to this school, the worst thing was the lack of updated information available in print and online. Printed maps and public directories were outdated, operators didn't know basic information, and many phone numbers for resources had changed or were simply incorrect.

The majority of students at my school commute. Thus, there is a lack of campus comminity and school spirit.

The worst thing I have noticed so far is the lack of classes available at different times in my major. As a transferring Junior my priority registration was very late so I was unable to register in the courses I needed the most this coming Spring 2012 semester. As a result, I had to enroll in courses I did not necessarily need... and I am on the waitlist for 2 of the 3 classes I expected to get into.
