Alexandria

A lot of students go home on the weekends. However, there a lot of activities plan so go out and get involved!

Glen

The worst thing about my school, is I don't live a they typical freshman side of campus. This means I am far away from my graduating class. Although the side of campus I live on is nicer, it is also farther away from many thing like the cafeteria, gym, recreation center, and classrooms. The location of the building I stay i is by far the worse thing about my school.

Whitney

The worst thing about my school is parking for commuters. Students pay tons of money for a parking permit and is still not guaranteed a parking space when arriving to campus. The parking spaces are first come first serve bases. The school sales more permits than they have parking for the students. Students also get tickets if they park on side the street even when they have still purchased a parking permit. Also, when purchasing a permit you can only park in certain spaces on campus. They have the worst layout for parking for students.

Pax

There was not anything worst about my school.

Summer

I believe that the worst thing about the school is that some professors use computer programs as a way to teach classes instead of relying on teaching in class as the way to learn. I feel as though I pay for the in class experience and should be able to feel as though that is where the learning is really taking place. The class I had the issue is was in precalculus and it was difficult to have to self teach myself that math whenever the professor would not help in that aspect.

Nicole

UNCG is a great college and it is very diverse which makes it great to meet and understand all backgrounds of students. There is always something to do on campus or get involved with. I enjoy my school and everything about it so far and there is nothing that I would consider the worst about UNCG.

Ciera

The worst thing about the University of North Carolina at Greensboro is that the tuition cost for out-of-state students is, I think, unnecessarily high. I realize it is like this with every University, but in my opinion it should cost less for out-of-state students to attend than for in-state students because our willingness to come and be educated at the school, when we don't have to, brings an influx of money, and perhaps eventually, employees to the state.

Marissa

I never really thought about anything at the school was really terrible. So, If I really had to say something negative, it would be about the dorms. Good thing is next year they are renovating the older dorms and they have already made a better dorm for rising sophmores.

Bethany

Bus drivers.

Frances

The population is mostly women. Intolerance for other beliefs than Christianity.

Nancy

The campus was limited for space with the main road running through the center of campus.

Jennifer

Probably the same as above (parking and registration.)

Courtney

The only thing that I wish I could change about my school is the fact that we do not have a football team. I know it is exciting when game days come around at other schools because the whole school is there and excited about it.

Kayla

No scholarship applications for general school scholarships, the award them based on your FAFSA.

Samantha

If you are not involved in sports support or greek life, you have a much harder time of finding nightlife worthy of college

Joshua

I'm not sure what the worst thing about my school is. Since I commute, I am hardly there. If I could say anything it would be the price of textbooks. I know that most schools have no say over that but the other day I bought a lab manual for Biology. A simple, spiral notebook lab manual cost me $60.00. Come on, really? Why does this book have to break me?

Victoria

Some of the dorms are not that new and the cafeteria food isn't the best.

Kaitlin

I consider parking to the worst part about UNCG. There are many different parking lots, most of which are very expensive and a pretty good distance from the dorms. Some are closer than others, but its always a pretty good walk to go pick up your car. Though there is one parking lot that is off campus, but you have to ride the Spartan Chariot in order to get to it, which always takes about 30 minutes to the lot and from it. I just find the price and lack of spaces to be very inconvenient.
