Miami Dade College Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Miami Dade College? Why?

Bianca

I think that the worst thing about my school is the lack of publicity about events, programs and opportunities. I feel that at my College Campus there Is not enough notifications about events hosted at other campuses or about the grand variety of academic opportunities that the College provides. I feel like first year students should learn a lot more from the Freshman experience than just time management and self-motivation, professors should regular promote scholarships and study programs.

The grading. Why can't you surpervise your grade so that you are aware of where you are and can raise your GPA? If we were updated with the grade, we wouldn't have to take the courses again or wonder if you did or didn't get the American Dream Scholarship, for example.

Cherry

No lodging on the largest campus of the college. It would give the campus a more college like feel. I currently feels like a high school all over again.

Kiana

The worst thing about this school is that the administration doesnt go out of their way to help a student.

Vanessa

The worst thing about the school is that some of the professors are underqualified to do their jobs.

Even though Miami Dade is an excellent option, I would improve their FASFA application process. Compared to other universities, the students only have to submit forms one time for their Pell Grant. At Miami Dade College, you have to submit the same forms every time a student apply for FASFA, which can slow down the process. If the information is the same as previous semesters, the student should not be required to submit the forms over again. If Miami Dade College improve this, the students' semesters can go by smoothly without worrying when their Pell Grant would be approved.

The worst thing i consider abou Miami Dade College is the parking. Finding a parking spot can seem like a battle and sometimes can take up to 30 minutes to find a spot. Many students are late to class due to the time spent finding a parking spot.

Makenzie

The worst thing about Miami Dade College is the student services. I feel that everyone always has something different to say and no one ever really has a true answer. I sometimes feel like I am getting the run around or they don't know what they are talking about. It's not like that all the time but usually that is the case. I feel that the professors know more than the actual people in student services.

Lina

I'm very grateful with my school. I don't consider they have something extremely bad. The only difficult situation could be to find a parking space close to the building where you have classes, but that depends of the time your class start, otherwise parking is great.

stephany

I enjoy everything about miami-dade college. However, I would not mind them having a little more campus activities. Maybe a live band or a talent show can truly spice up campus life.

Jeffrey

There is some school spirit and they try to get the students involved. Its not there yet until MDC get an actually sports team of football and basketball.

Richard

There's not much help or support from the financial aid offices at my school.

jean

the expenses and prices! whiter food or classes or supplies it feels like there really stealing your money. honestly cuting of the prices a little of anything would be a big help.

Glenn

Nothing.

The worst thing about Miami-Dade is that the maps do a terrible job of leading you places. See, the maps only have pictures of buildings and the building letter or number. On top of that it only has the name of the halls. So if you wanted to find the enrollment office or the where the library is you're far better off walking around aimlessly for an hour because using those maps you'll be doing it regardless. Those maps aren't freshman friendly or veteran friendly for that matter.

Amanda

the worst things about my school is that it does not offer some of the things that i am looking for.

Jerome

what i consider the worst thing at miami dade college is that they push the students in carreer that they are not intrested in. The advisement system is set up in a way that the might give the students wrong cources not related to their major so the have to change the major or do additional cources to accomadate for the others that they dont need.

Cherlyne

The worst thing about Miami Dade for me is the fact that there is no on -campus living to experience more independence from. Although, Miami Dade has most university’s pegged down. Miami Dade is still not a university. It has no dorms for residential living, no cafeteria for social group eatery and no real on campus activities such as sororities, frat parties, and school games.

Teressa

The one thing I consider the worst about my school is the large popualtion of pigeons; because, they could possible pass feaces on you and they can also fly into the open area lunch corners.
