University of Colorado Colorado Springs Top Questions

University of Colorado at Colorado Springs is a small campus, located at the base of Pike's Peak. The worst thing about the campus is that there is limited parking- perhaps this is by design to encourage carpooling.

The worst thing about my school is that it consists of a lot of commuters who live at home, so it is hard to make friends. There is also no football team and has a very little selection of clubs.

Again, like most schools, paperwork and registration is all over the place, with administrators and career advisors giving you more than one set of instructions on how to apply for the college, for financial aid, and in general, making sure all your paperwork is in order. It's up to you to verify everything you need to attend and complete college, and you'd better verify several times with more than one person on more than one day, in order to cover your bum.

I wish my school offered more on-campus activities and events to meet new people. The events they often put on are fun, but there just isn't enough going on during the weekends on campus.

That the school is not well known. I wish more people knew about it because it really is an amazing school

The worst thing about my school is definitely the parking and the cost of parking passes. Its much more efficient to just use the bus transportation to and from school.

The worst thing about my school would have to be the social heirarchy. Some students have very different personalities when on and off campus depending on the people they are surrounded by. As a result, they can act entirely different around a group than they would act around an individual as a way to associate themselves among the "upper" class of people.

I think my only real complaint about my school is the parking. I have to park 2 miles away from the school and then hike to a shuttle bus to be taken up to the school. Or I could pay $200/ semester to park closer but not have a gaurenteed space anyway.

not all classes offered when i need them to be

The worst thing about this school is it's lack of activities everyday and parking!!

The worst thing about my school in the school spirit. Many students do not attend the events that are on campus, and I wish more people would just become more involved.

I'm not used to a school this small or this much attention. But it's starting to grow on me.

The worst thing about UCCS, is that some of the departments are really only limited to a few staff members, so some of the required classes cannot be offered every semester.

The worst thing about my school is the lack of making one feel like a valued individual. For example, if one were a customer to a large corperation, one usually doesnt receive the personal quality service as one would receive from a smaller company.

The worst thing about my school is the general layout. As it is along the side of a steep slope, it is fairly small, without many grassy areas. There aren't many places to sit outside to work on homework or to read for classes.

The support services, like financial aid, the records department, and academic advising, are not effective. I rarely get straight answers when I ask questions and I often don't receive the correct relevant information about my situation until it's too late. I've had problems with my records being lost and having to be resubmitted, financial aid officers giving me faulty information, getting different answers about my credit hour requirements from different academic advisers, and so on and so forth.

The English classes because they don't tailor to fit one's individuality, i.e. one's major or interest(s).

The worst thing about school is the priceses of everything like text books and studyguides. They cost way too much and a lot of us can't afford to get them

i can not think of anything

The worst thing about UCCS is that it needs more available parking on campus that is conviently located, such as an additional parking garage.
