That there was no help in graduate school planning

There is nothing I find frustrating about my school.

The most frustrating thing about UF is the party-atmosphere. As much as college students party, it tends to get in the way of other students who don't party. Yet those who party don't show up to class and make better grades than some students who don't party and show up to class.

I'd say the most frustrating thing about my school is the parking issue. There's not much room for undergraduate cars, much less excess accomodation for students living off campus.

The campus is so large and has such a large population of ambitious people, its easy to get lost and difficult to meet people. Its very competitive, even in clubs and organizations.

The weather at times can be bothersome. Temperatures can range from really cold to extremely hot.

Parking on campus is the most frustrating thing for design students or anyone; there is never enough and they hand out parking tickets like free coupons.

Finding parking spots is a frustrating aspect of living off-campus. There never seems to be enough spots even if you have a decal. Sometimes you might risk missing class if you decide to drive to campus. I recommend using the bus system or bike riding to campus to avoid parking problems.

I have a hard time finding anything negative about my school. If I had to choose one thing that was frustrating it would be that four years is not enough for college. I loved UF and Gainesville and would love to go back!

there is nothing frustrating about my school whatsoever. nothing is wrong with classes or student life at all.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that although it is extremely hard to get into, it is not technically considered an Ivey League school. I put in an overwhelming amount of work in high school to get where I am right now and although I was accepted to other universities with more prestigious names than the University of Florida, I did not have the financial means to attend those schools and I wish that UF had the same amount of recognition for what it really is - an amazing University with all of the potential of Ivey League schools!

I worked hard to get into the University of Florida in order to open the opportunity to live at home while I am in college. While it is a common goal among teenagers to seek to escape their family and home in college, the economy has forced me to learn more realistic priorities.

The most fustrating thing about the University of Florida would have to be the financial aide department. The department sometimes lacks organization and can be very time consuming when trying to resolve a students financial aide.

I believe the most frustrating part about the attending the University of Florida is the recent budget cuts that have limited the funding for certain colleges. I believe our institution has room for improvement in the way that our money is spent that would enhance the academic success of the University of Florida, make school more affordable, and allow more funding for certain professors and/or colleges.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the overcrowding problem. UF is a great school and many people want to attend, leading to many classes becoming crowded. This makes it difficult to learn to the best of my ability as the classes have too many people for the professor to effectively teach. The libraries and student union are also crowded, making it somewhat difficult to find places to study on campus, especially due to the lack of parking for so many students making it hard to get to the library and to class on time.

The most frusterating thing is the fact that I know so many brilliant people are turned away from it, just because of GPA and test scores.

Some of the pre-requisite courses are large (100 + students); which makes it diffuclt to build a repore with professors. Espeically if you are having a problem undertsanding the material.

The lack of communication between faculty that is supposed to help students and the students who need help.

Hard to afford when financial aid doesn't cover the costs
