University of Akron Main Campus Top Questions

N/A

The crime on and off campus. There are a lot of robberies. I do not feel safe being on campus at night by myself.

The worst thing about my school is the parking. There aren't enough parking spaces and there are too many students that drive

The neighborhood. There are many crimes that go on, on and around the campus. Campus is near the inner city neighborhoods, so there are shootings, robberies and people who get jumped, a lot more than usual on a college campus. However the campus police are doing the best they can to stop the crime, it still happens, and scares me enough I don't like being on campus once the sun goes down.

The housing here at Akron has been a problem the last few years---too many students with not enough housing... but then again it goes to show you how many people want to attend this college.

Finding an advisor that actually know what they are talking about. Also the professors are experts but they do not know how to teach, especially in engineering. Most of the time students fail the tests but somehow still end up with a B.

The worst thing about my school is the parking situation. There were more parking permits sold than there were available parking spots, and parking is very difficult some days.

The worst thing about my school is some of the teachers seem not to care if you know what you are doing or not. Being in the Electrical Engineering Department, the teachers sometimes assume that you have privious knowldge which some students do but i do not. It is quite difficult to be taught by a teacher who assumes you already know wha you are doing.

Parking. Not enough on campus housing.

The worst thing about my school is the parking since they keep taking out parking lots to build new campus building and now a new stadium. Engineering class also get hard to get into when your getting close to finishing up since theres not as many professors teaching those classes so they fill up quickly.
