University of North Carolina Wilmington Top Questions

One of the most frustrating things about The University of North Carolina at Wilmington is the lack of diversity in the on campus school activites. I would like to see a wider variety of choices to choose from so that more students will be inclined to participate with on-campus activities and help the develpment of UNCW's student body.

There have been many frustrating things, but the worst is the constant financial pressures they put on students. They constantly raise tuition, parking pass prices and on campus food costs. They are also making students pay for things that were once free, like visitor passes for their families.

The parking situation around the buildings. There wasn't enough for everyone. Hopefully, after the new parking deck, parking passes will be available for more students.

Time and money management.

1. Hyper-liberal 2. Administration can be extremely rude 3. Students whine too much 4. parking is a nightmare

The white people are close minded.

The most frustrating thing about UNCW is the parking. There never seem to be enough spaces in the parking lots and there is really no over-flow anywhere. Parking tickets are readily given out to students and visitors. There are a few places for visitors to park, but they really aren't anywhere convenient and require a lot of walking to get to a certain area.

Parking. A parking pass costs 220 and you are only allowed to park in one lot, if you want passes for other lots they need to be approved and are not usually granted. Also there is no student parking for the dining hall which is in the very back of campus and a far walk for everyone who doesn't own an apartment in University Landing.

Lack of financial aid and the way students must pay their bills on-line. Only limited payment options & financial aid award information not out in time to plan.

The most frustrating thing for me is the Auxiliary Services office. I believe there is a better way to arrange the parking system we have at the University. Many students refer to the Auxiliary Services workers that walk from car to car, lot to lot, ticketing cars as "Parking Nazis."

Some students have to park off campus and catch a shuttle to bring them to campus. I have never had to do this, but I have heard many of my classmates talk about this being an inconvenience. Another thing I find frustrating is that my classrooms are always freezing. Even during the warmer months I wear long sleeves and pants.

The amount of students who are on drugs. It's everyone these days.

There is not a lot of diversity. I think it is realted to being in a beach town rather than it being related to the school itself.

I'm poor but not poor enough to get a job on campus so I stay poor because even though I've put in 20ish applications around town I can't find a job and I'm not elligible for one on campus.
