Pennsylvania State University-Main Campus Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Pennsylvania State University-Main Campus? Why?

Danielle

Since it is larger school, almost all of my tests are multiple choice, and I do well with essay questions.

Chris

The worst thing about my school is the distance to my classes. I have a far walk since I am off campus, but there are plenty of busses that run and also parking garages on capmus so it is a help.

Casey

The worst thing about penn state is intro level professors, because they are only there for the research. If you can make it past those classes, then everyone becomes much more involved and the professors are actually there for education, not research.

Ashlee

There is not as much diversity as a city campus school.

Christopher

The school is very expensive and they charge a lot of money for a lot of basic things (like parking).

Anthony

It's is very expensive to go here, and difficult to get any substantial financial aide to pay for the large tuition and housing bills

Stephen

Too many people, not enough room, not enough places to live, way too expensive for school and housing, people are generally rude in every activity, teachers in big classes dont care if you pass or fail, limitations to take cources outside your major other then gen-eds.

Megan

Classes cost so much money. It is hard to pay for it if you are not continuously taking out loans. I know i will graduate with a ton of debt.

Mei

Just a little too cold in winter. The food in the restaurants doesn't taste too good. (not like University of Pennsylvania). and we dont have fresh fish for sushi because its kinda far from sea

Miatta

The worst thing about my school is the lack of diversity. The school is over 80{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} caucasian, and because of this many people tend to feel uncomfortable. There are often many reports of hate crimes against minorities which adds to their discomfort. This is the worst thing because nobody should feel uncomfortable about the way they are at any school.
