Communication between President of school to students

I enjoy being a student at Columbus State. It is a great school and there is nothing I can say that is bad about it.

The worst thing about my school is not enough variety of foods offered in the cafeteria. We have the same food every week or two. Also we are given a certain amount of cougar cash that can be spent at only a few places, so there isn't alot of places to spend money on campus to get a variety of foods if you don't want what the cafeteria has.

Small town.

Faculty/staff are not helpful at all when you need advice/assistance about your academic career.

My experiences with the financial aid office.

I would have to say the worst thing at this school is the fiancial aide department. It doesnt help a person get the financial help they need, rather they tell you what paperwork you need to turn in and then all you can do is hope everything works out. Even then unless you have HOPE or another type of scholarship, it is difficult to get the financial aide you need.

The finacial Aid Office is awful. I am always refunded for things that I shouldnt be charged for. We have been charged money for a parking deck that isn't near ANY of the classes so no one parks in it. It was a waste of our money and the parking is still really bad. Also available classes. They offer a lot of freshmen classes and once you get in upperlevels there could be a 30 person class at a late time that 60 people want, but 12 lower level classes that a 100 freshman want.
