California State University-Sacramento Top Questions

The most frustrating think about my school is increase of tuition. I am not a California resident wchich make me have disadvantage in college. I will have to pay a lot more than the students that have residency. Also according to the residency rule, I can not have residency until my Senior year.

The most frustrating thing about CSUS is that most teachers act like they're your only teacher and give a lot of homework.

Often times, its hard to find parking. So this can be frustrating, however, if I get to school earlier than my class starts, I can usually find good parking.

There isn't actually anything frustrating about CSUS. I really love it there and I believe I made a great decision for coming to Sacramento State.

The current economic crisis without our state and loss of funding to universities resulted in cancelled classes, furloughed teachers and placed 15 unit course limits on all freshmen. I found it impossible to get required general education and engineering classes. The classes I did take were extremely crowded, lecture and lab times were reduced due to the furloughs and this resulted in additional workload for the students. The first year of college is challenging without the added pressure of fewer classes and forced furloughs and school closure days. I never anticipated these additional problems beyond my control.

Not only is attending college more and more expensive, it is getting harder and harder to actually get in. My chosen program is so impacted that only about 10{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of those applying will actually get accepted.

The problem I still continue to have is the lack of help from the financial aid office. I am currently stuggling to pay for my classes as well as a place to live. My mother is the only parent working and she is still supporting my brothers and sisters. I gave up a good job to go to Sac State which really made me tight on money. When I was trying really hard to find help from their advisors but all of them turned their heads away. They don't give each student enough of their time or help.

The school cost alot of money and books are overpriced and my family can not pay for it we are struggle to pay for thing because of the econmy and im hoping to get all the help i can get to pay for college so i can still go.

The most frustrating things about my school is that sometimes when you are running late for class and you don't have much time, you can't find a place to park. Even though there are three parking structures on campus and countless parking lots, everyone seems to like to have classes that start at 9:00 AM and if you are running late, it will be hard to find a place to park and get to class on time.
