University of Nevada-Reno Top Questions

How far I am away from my family.

Nobody from my school came here and a lot of people from Reno come here so they all have their set group of friends. Since everyone has thier set group of friends already it is kinda hard to meet people unless you are very out-going.

Waiting to register for classes. They have it set so your last name determines when you can register. It is very frustrating to have to wait and watch all the classes you need for your degree fill up fast.

the recent budget cuts (Cuts that affected staff, programs, and resources for students )

The most frustrating thing about the University of Nevada, Reno is that there is not much to do around it.

I must admit, beyond not being able to afford some things, there really is not a lot that I find frustrating about my university. Some of the professors tend to assign things from the textbooks very early on, and sometimes I haven't been able to acquire my books right away. Usually they are pretty lenient, however, which makes for a great reprieve early on in the semester.

The most frustrating thing is probably a few glitches in the courses, some courses fill up fast or there aren't enough different course times to make the schedule you may want it to be (mostly due to lack of funding).

For me it is the fact that it doesn't offer the major that I want to be in. I had to settle for something different because I couldn't afford to go anywhere else.

Well since today everything is based off computers and online, it's hard for me to make the transition. Although I'm young and have been on computers most of my life, it's creates a lot of independent studying for students and students really have to pay close attention to succeed. Also I'm a person that likes to speak directly to someone, not ask questions through email. So that has definitely been a struggle for me and definitely frustrating.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that they are very particular with parking. The school is constantly giving tickets to their students for parking and the parking at the school is costly.
