The Evergreen State College Top Questions

One thing about this school is that it gets a bad wrap because everyone thinks its a hippy school, that kind of bugs me cause then some people may not give it a chance. One other thing is the same courses are not offered all the time so if you pass one you may not get a chance to take it.

It is a bit remote and because the falculty has the opportunity to mold the curriculum it is always changing so you might not find a program they offered one year the next year.

The worst thing about my school would have to be the difficulty finding and entering relevant programs. My school has sixteen credit programs rather than four and two. This can make it though to get in the right program for a students graduate school requirements.

I thought the worst thing was that it was a small school with no PAC-10 football team, but I suppose other students wouldn't miss it.

Lack of structure in graduation requirements, class registration, and club activities.

Lack of structure. You plan your own educatoin, which is awesome, but if you need structure and guidelines, this is not the school for you.

the campus food is awful and way spendy!!! campus housing needs work! it cost to much to live on campus and go to school if you are an out of state student.

Has a strong sense of community, but this makes it somewhat difficult for transferring students.

It's reputation.

People make the assumption that you don't have to do class work at Evergreen. When I have a seminar class and no one has read the book it's hard to learn anything.
