What's the most frustrating thing about Temple University?

Bahiah

The most frustrating element about Temple University is the financial aid office. While many students are offered a large amount of financial aid, the office is very hard to communicate with. With the subject of "money" being so sensitive, the financial advisors should be more welcoming and accommodating to the students. In addition, the office needs to make sure no "small" mistakes are made when dealing with someone's funding to live. In this office, if one thing goes wrong everything is wrong. Temple University's Financial Aid office needs to develop better customer service.

The lengthy commute from home and the limited availability of on-campus housing. Mandatory night classes and meetings which are difficult for commuters to attend.

Arielle

They don't have programs or clubs for transfer or commuter students. A huge majority of the population falls into these categories and it would be beneficial to provide them with some sort of club or activities.

During 'rush hour' it can be a little hectic just getting out of a building.

Tarre

The most frustrating thing about Temple University was the lack of housing for students. Although it is customary to have individual housing following the first two years, it was very stressful and difficult finding adequate/convenient housing close to the campus.

The most frustrating thing about the school are the girls.

Daontay

The most frustrating thing about my school is the fact that the students struggle to attend. I know of friends, peers, and relatives who give their all just to attend the university. In a society where eucation is such a necessity, it needs to be more accessible. I also feel that the school needs to lower the costs of certain things such as housing, food and meal plans, books, and other school related expenses aside from tuition. If we're giving everything to attend the university, the university needs to be alongside us, giving the students everything they've got.

The most frustrating thing for me is definately the fact that I'm a commuter, I live an hour away and cannot afford to live on campus and I take public transportation. However the teachers are very understanding and never hold it against me.
