Catholic University of America Top Questions

The worst thing would definitely be the red-tape and run arounds that have had to be done.

The worst thing about CUA is the food.

The overwhelming lack of diversity among students (white) compared with the overwhelming lack of diversity in unskilled labor on campus (black).

The cost of attendance and dangerous area.

There is hardly any diversity and the little that there is seems to be unaccepted by the rest of the students and professors. Those of different religous prefrence other than Catholics are discriminated against.

The school is overly conservative and judgmental of those who do not agree with its stated beliefs. The administration is completely unhelpful or incompetent. The quality of education at CUA is minimal at best; I do not feel that I have recevied any bit of an education and it is definitely not worth the money the charge for it. The excessive tuition costs go to beautifying the campus and promoting Catholicism on campus rather than benefitting the academics.

I feel that for the most part, Catholic University is a wonderful school for me. I would change some small things, like the size and quality of the dinning hall, the availabilty of more practical meal plans, and the availabilty for scholarships and financial aid. I love the school and wish to graduate from there, however, my financial status is somewhat of a problem. I feel that the office of admissions and financial aid should reach out more to help as many students as they can.
