University of New Mexico-Main Campus Top Questions

Not all of your professors have the title of professor. Especially if you are freshman or sophomore. Many professors are students who recently graduated. Moreover is really unsafe living on-campus.

The worst thing about my school is the quality of the advisement center. The advisors for the undergraduates can be rude and unhelpful.

I think the worst thing about the University of New Mexico is the worst thing about any school. Deciding. Deciding who you want to be for the rest of your life. As soon as it's etched on your transcripts it's there for life. The only thing different about UNM is that next to my decision is a UNM logo. It sealed my fate and that's what I hate most about it. I can't change who I am. What if in thirty years I want to be a teacher? UNM says I cannot. That's the worst.

The advisors at UNM don't really help you. They tell you what classes that you should take and then desmiss you after they are done. Not bothering with your questions or concerns.

Honestly I dont like the way that chemistry is taught here we have TA's that dont speak english and that is a safety hazard. There will always be that one kid who could get hurt. The security here they dont have an available service where they could walk new students to thier classes without having to wait 30min. Odd enough the school is located in the worst part of town near a street called Central. Albuquerque is very dangerous also I have almost gotten kidnaped in broad daylight.

Teenagers. I hate them. They're dumb.

On campus, there is a lot of activities to be involved in, but if you do not get involved early on it is hard to break the barrier and be accepted.

I would say the tuition rates for out of state students and the availability of financial aid, grants, or scholarships. I am the youngest of 4 children, and my parents are definitely having a difficult time putting me through school. I wish I qualified for more financial aid or grants. I wish my worries as a college student went as far as studying for midterms and exams, but in reality, I have to worry about whether I will have enough money to go register for classes next semester.

I feel like our advisors could be a lot more attentive and the job opportunities should be more available.

It's really hard to get things done here with the administration. You have to jump through a lot of hoops, and talk to a lot of people in order to get what you need, and the information you need. Things here seem to be pretty unorganized, and the processes here probably could be much more simple. Parking here is also expensive, and kindof overflowed.

The parking is horrible.

This school is very segregated, people only really hang out with their friends from high school. Since it is one of the few major colleges in New Mexico the majority of graduating seniors attend, and many drop out within a year. The people in general are not overly friendly and it is hard to find groups to join. The staff is also often very unorganized and they tend to take their time with student issues.

The worst thing about the university is that there are not a lot of available jobs on campus. I believe that this is the worst thing about the school because there are many students that wish to work at scholl becaue they would have flexible schedule that works around classes. It is often difficult for students to find jobs on campus that are part of student employment instead of workstudy, not everybody is awarded work study.

The worst thing about my school is the budget problems the school is faced with. A lot of classes are cut and no longer offered. Because of this, some classes are only offered in either the fall semester or the spring, but not both, which causes conflicts with students and thier unfinished courses who are anticipating graduation.

The school only has a 3{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} African American population.

The only thing thats worse about this school is that since its a publc school instead of private, homeless people try to stay in dorms or in the library. But thats the least of my worries.

The worst thing about my school is the fact that there is so many things going on it is hard to choose just a few of them to praticipate in. I feel that alot of the focus does go to the extra curricular activities and this is good but sometimes it seems moe than the other. The major bad thing about this school is how expensive it is. If it were less expensive alot more people would have the oppurtunity to learn and enjoy college. Either that or more scholarships avaliable.

I believe that the worst part of UNM is the advisement and financial aid centers as far as class selections go. There seems to be no connections between departments and colleges so many times it takes four or so cross-campus trips to get needed information.

The worst thing about my school would probably be the expenses of books.
