What's the most frustrating thing about University of South Florida-Main Campus?

Gabrielle

The most frustrating thing about my school would have to be the unorganized instructors I've had in the past.

Renato

Not gettin the classes that you want because they conflict with other classes or the class itself is filled is the most frustrating thing about your school.

Nathaniel

Worries over finances are really rough to be honest. I do well in school and balance my social life well especially with my strong convictions about God. Even though I know He will provide my school being a major university is very expensive more than I can afford and whenever I go to look for scholarships that my school offers I don't qualify because put very plainly I am white and middle class. My school has one of the highest ethnically diverse campuses and they are proud of that, but it is very frustarting to struggle financially.

Gary

I get the idea that a lot of desicions made by the school are made with money in mind over the students, versus the alternative of students over money. I found myself getting fined for my room, parking situations, and other unexplainable fees. It was almost demoralizing to think the school cared about my money more than me. It's purely speculation though.

FInacial Aid office. Cafeteria Food. Parking. Lots of people, and very crowded at certain buildings.

Melissa

The student parking lot is not big enough. They sell about 1,000 parking permits for students who live on-campus but there are only about 500 stops available. When you park "out-of-area" because the rest of the spots are full, you are given a $30 ticket. They allow you to challenge your ticket (you go online and type up your reason for challenging the ticket, a board reviews it, and decides if you have to pay it) but they rarely take it back.

Desiree

Registering for courses. It can be difficult to get the courses you want before they fill up during your first two years. Registration dates are assigned by number of credit hours.

Ruth

The Most frustrating is the competiveness and the cost.

Kristie

Having a set schedule. I do not have the flexibility to decide if I want to take day or evening courses.

Claire

some college students smoke in undesignated smoking areas.
