University of San Diego Top Questions

Superficiality, because a lot of the students come from a lot, and it is evident in their behavior and attitudes

It is so expensive that only very specific kinds of students are able to attend. This greatly limits the ability for people to develop relationships with those who grew up differently then they have and thus few people are really exposed to new and different ideas. Everyone went to the same expensive prep schools or private schools all their lives and everyone has the same political affiliation as their parents: apathetic. There are few attempts at changing the status-quo, even when there is a general consensus that something should be done.

I cannot get enough financial aid to continue going it.

They nickle and dime you to the extreme.

I really don't know what the worst thing would be. I suppose there is a lack of activity on campus during the weekends.

Some of the people are way too materiablistic and it gets in the way of learning when people are too focused on what car they have or what designer they are wearing.

The worst aspect about my school would have to be a lack of diversity in the student body, with the majority of students being from the mid-west/west United States and mostly caucasion/white.

The cost of attendance!

The worst thing about my school is the lack of school involvement and spirit. We offer many sports and have well-funded sporting events, but a lack a fans in the stands. Students would prefer to go out and drink the night away, rather than attend a fun soccer game, or football game. Our men's basketball team is the only team students remotely support and even their games are slim in attendants. I admire the school spirit and fellowship of large schools compared to our small school, pathetic involvement.

I come from a middle class family and mostly everyone who attends USD comes from extremely rich families and in turn some are rather snobbish and rude to others. However, my high school was the same way so I am rather used to it.
