University of North Texas Top Questions

The most frustrating thing about my school is that there are not enough academic counselors to meet the needs of all registered students. This creates long waiting lines for appointments and these appointments are usually only available at the most inconvenient times for students.

I am commuting because I cannot afford to live on campus on on my own yet. I have to commute from Rowlett for 8:00 AM classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

The school emphasizes music, art, and business over everything else. Events aren't heavily publicized and because it's such a comuter campus, it's difficult to make really good friends.

Although we have a good athletics program, our football team has a long way to go. They try really hard and we actually won more games this year, but that hasn?t been enough. We don?t get the chance to see the ?Mean Green? tower get lit up that often which can become very frustrating at times. Better luck next time Eagles!

It's ten times harder to get an appointment with my advisor at UNT than at my other school. Instead of creating an appointment online like at my other school, I have to track down the secretary and the advisor's available appointments usually don't fit my schedule.

It is frustrating that they dont allow you to live off campus your first year, even if it would save you money.

The most frustrating thing about school is knowing what you need to accomplish for your degree plan. There are many courses that you need to fulfill before you graduate. There is the University Core, The College Core, and then there is your Majors Core. It gets complicated and can be overwhelming and then it becomes frustrating.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that the advisors do not always know the answers to all my questions. I have had several problems attempting to get one question answered. I have to make appointments with several different people to ensure that the answer to my question is the correct answer and will still get different answers from different people.

IThe most furstrating this about my school are the large class sessions in the auditoriums.

During my time at UNT, the most frustrating aspect of school is definitely the transition from home life to campus life and my studies. College work is not easy, and it takes more time to work through things than it did in high school. If you're a senior looking at attending a college or university next year, be aware of the changes that will come and be prepared to take it slowly, doing everything to the best of your ability!

We recycle on campus

Parking can be difficult at times. It can also be hard to get the classes you need because they sometimes fill up.

Traffic on I-35 near campus is probably the worst thing, however there are plans for expansion in the coming years.

The most frustrating thin about my school is registering for classes. Although it's simple and easy to do, it can sometimes be difficult to get the classes you want/ need at the times you want. UNT is a big school and the order that sudents are allowed to register is Honors College 1st, then Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, and then Freshman. It's possible that the class you need is already full if you have to register later.

Overall I really enjoy my school and feel like I do learn a lot. The only problem I have with the actual school is where the school is located. I really hate living in Denton. There is nothing to do here and I feel like if there was more to do here I would want to stay and live here next semester. Also another thing that bothers me about this school is the financial staff. They don't help you just tell you to apply online, which doesn't help me at all.

They do not offer family housing. I am single mother of 3 kids so I was disappointed in that way.

I wish more people would openly show school spirit on Fridays when we're supposed to wear green. Many jazz majors (a nationally recognized program for the university) have overwhelming pride but don't choose to wear spirit clothes.

Sometimes the weather won't be cosistent so you have to be prepared.

Probably the athletics. Although we are good at some sports, the school just doesen't have the sports following that I would like. We are working on it every year, improving facilities and trying to generate excitment. The school has alot of commuters, so not everyone lives on or around campus. We definetely need to continually improve on generating interest and staying competitive.

They accepted most of the credits from other schools including military and ace credits
