The most frustrating thing is that we are required to live on campus for our first two years here and they do not make many exceptions to this rule. At a lot of other schools, you only have to live in the dorms one year and then can get an apartment. After a year of dorm life and dining hall food, many are ready to make their own living arrangements and cook their own food...but you can't!

There aren't many frustrating things about my school. It's a really laid back campus, and in the event that something DOES bother you, you can always discuss the issue with the Student Association. However, if I had to pick one thing, I would say that the dining hall hours could be a bit better. And even that is just a pet peeve, since while the dining hall nearest to me might close early, there is definitely an open hall somewhere on campus (so you're never really without food).

The most frustrating thing about my school would be the campus living. The dorms are old and the food tends to be repetitive.

I was sitting in a diner and a student was talking to her mom explaining her grades 1 A a couple B's and a C. The mom did not get mad at all. Syracuse has so musch potential and we could improve are rankings if kids just tried harder and focused on the right thing.

If you don't join Greek Life, it can be a little difficult to create a social life.

The most frustrating thing about Syracuse University is that we get snow 10 months out of the year.

The most frustrating thing about Syracuse is that students can be trapped in their own bubbles if they are not careful. It is very easy to forget about the "real world" while attending school. Though the news is available to students through free newspapers and TVs in the dorm lounges, current events are not a part of discussions students have among themselves, or included in topics brought up by professors. The university tries to promote Scholarship In Action, but the reality falls short. Being in a bubble is not good for anyone.

Not being able to register for classes on time is a pain. Hope that you have a good time as to when you are allowed to register for classes, because most likely you will not get all the classes you plan out.

Some people here are just plain mean. I know that it's not the school's fault, but people need to try and be a little warmer and helpful. Also, financial aid could be better - aka. more.

The most frustrating thing for me is that first and second year students are required to live in dormitory and studetns that live in dormitory are require to buy meal plans.
