What do you consider the worst thing about University of Tulsa? Why?

I do not consider anything at The University of Tulsa to be the worst. The only thing I would say that is not as satisfying would be the food/dining options. I wish that the main cafeteria served better food and allowed us to take food to go. I also wish that we could turn our meals into dining dollars to be able to purchase different types of food. We can only use our "meals" for the cafeteria and the "simply-to-go" options.

It is very challenging in some fields of study, and requires a lot of time studting outside of classes. For me, this is hard because I am working my way through college and I am sometimes stressed by my very full schedule and demanding subjects.

The worst thing about the University of Tulsa is the price. It is a private University which means that many of the funds that run this school come from the students' pockets. You are going to have to pay more to go here than most other schools, but if you are going to drop thousands of dollars on an education, might as well do it at a place that will truly give you what you are paying for. That is why, despite the cost, I chose the University of Tulsa.

The dining plan is probably the worst part of our school, since it forces 1st and 2nd year students to use it, and there is no real benefit. The cafeteria is all right, but when charged $20 per meal by our meal plan, it is not worth it. Additionally, the "Dining dollars" and "Gold dollars" that TU offers gives students no advantage at restaurants that accept this currency over using normal money. It's a huge drain on funds for students, and its price should probably be cut in half and removed as a requirement for students.

The worst thing about Tulsa is definitely the "Caf" food. I always "brown paper bagged it" for lunch in high school, and so I have never experienced cafeteria food quite like this. There are good fruits, cereals, and a sandwich bar, but not many other healthy options when it comes to dinner.

The worst thing is the affordability of TU. I am a transfer student who came in from the University of Oklahoma. I came to TU my second semester of freshman year, so I have spent the majority of my college career at TU. I recieved ample scholarship, money wise, but the tuition and cost way exceed aid. I work two jobs on and off campus to try and alleviate the burden.

The cost of my school could be considered the worst thing about it. It is a private school, but the tuition and other prices are almost too much to handle for someone that wants a top notch education but is not as financially fortunate as others. I also think that for some of the housing/dining accomodations, the prices should not be as high.

The price of tuition is definitely thre worst. It is very expensive and the only reason i get to attend is because of scholarships and Financail aid. Without the assistance i would not be able the attend.

Jackson

The worst thing about my school is the lack of healthy food choices. During my time at the University of Tulsa I have never felt that I had the opportunity to maintain a healthy diet while being restricted to their meal plan. I feel like I have no other choice because I live on the campus and do not have sufficient funds or time to buy additional food and cook for myself three times every day. This problem could be easily solved if they stopped trying to make healthy food taste better in order to get everyone to eat it.

There tends to be not enough school spirit, which can especially be seen at sports games like football basketball. I think this is because people tend to identify themselves with one group even though there is a lot of diversity on campuse. However there are events that bring together many organizations in order to work on this issue.
