University of New Hampshire-Main Campus Top Questions

The worst thing about UNH is that there is not much diversity.

Cost.

Fees and prices of books. But I think it's the same at every school.

I think the worst thing abuot my school is the general education requirements necessary for graduation. There are far too many general education requirements and not enough guidance from advisors for making sure you complete them all in a timely fashion. Rather than adding to and enriching your experience as an undergradute, the fairly rigid general education requirements add stress and make it difficult to complete major requirements in time, especially as a science major. It also leaves no time to take elective type courses that may be of interest to you.

Too much drinking. Not enough alternative weekend night activities.

How strict it has gotten with underage drinking in the on-campus dorms. My roomates got evicted from the dorms after their first incident which I thought was a little excessive.

The incredible waste of money on materialistic items like the pewter mascot, road repair using bricks which need to be replaced again the next year and the horrible out-of-state tuiton rate. It seems as though the courses that you need are only offered during selected semesters and I wish I knew which professors were the ones I should have had as Freshman & Sophomore. College put me in debt for almost 50k. I wish my college didn't run so much like a business! We also need more recognition for our veterans who are also students among us!

The worst thing about my school is the disciplinary system, especially in dealing with on-campus housing.

The drinking problem is by far the worst thing about my school. For someone who only drinks on occasion for social reasons, not to get drunk, it is hard to find friends with similar interests. If the school was more strict on their policies, that may weed out the people who are in college strictly for the parties and availability to alcohol.

I wish the school had about 6,000 kids, rather than 12,000
