Northern Arizona University Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about Northern Arizona University?

Destiny

It is hard to be away from home. Getting homesick is hard to deal with but its manageable. It is easy to get discouraged and give up when you don't know what you want to do when you graduate but once you figure out what it is school gets a whole lot easier and you have a goal to work towards. Figure out what you like to do and find something you can see yourself doing in 20 years that will still make you happy.

Trying to get answers from the administration and different departments. It is difficult to get things accomplished because they send you running to different people when you really only need one person.

Kayla

The most frustrating thing is probably the old buildings. Some of them seem to be falling apart. Parking is also really frustrating; there isn't much room and they keep eliminating parking lots. However, once I got used to biking everywhere things got much better.

Amanda

The President of the University does not communicate at all with his students or staff in a productive method.

Holly

my GPA from my first degree carried over to my second degree

Danielle

The most frustrating thing about my school is the availability of on-campus living. There have been times when students were stuck in study rooms while they sorted out a place for them to live. Also, they promote "staying connected" with on-campus living, but yet students have had to find a place off-campus which can be difficult to find. I also didn't like how they built a really nice new dorm and designated it a freshman connections hall. Thankfully it'll be upper classmen next fall.

Anna

for me being a student athlete, the most frustrating thing is not have enough time to get extra studying in or have time to meet with professors because of my busy schedule

Robert

The most frustrating thing is that kids leave often to go to the valley or back home on the weekends. It is pretty hard to find a decent off campus job since it is a small town. That's about it.

Kyrstin

The administrative office works very slow.

There have been two times when I called the financial aid office and they had told me something that my parents did not have to pay their college loan until I was done with school. Well, it turns out that was not true and we have to start paying it off after the last disbursement next semester. That was very upsetting and now I have to take out another loan to pay off my parents' loan since we were not expecting those payments.
