University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Top Questions

For me the most frustrating thing about school in general is trying to juggle a full school load and work full time. Both require alot of time and attention and managing both can be a struggle.

I don't really have any complaints about this school. It does a great job of including all students and offers help to those who seek it.

the amount of money needed to attend

The most frustrating thing about UWM is dealing with the finaical aid office.

The most frusterating thing would be my advisors. I always get told contridicting things and that is very frusterating.

The lack of mixture between my field and other fields. Being an architecture, I rarely socialize with people my age of other majors.

How hard it is to chose classes, it'd be a lot easier if someone walked you through exactly what to take and options.

I don't believe I have that many problems here in Milwaukee that would be any different if I went to a different school. I wish that I knew all the extra fees that I have on my account. I feel that I already am paying a lot for tuition and housing. It frustrates me that on my account it says that I have an "admin fee". I don't understand what that means. I would like to know what I am paying for since I have mutliples of those for both semesters.

The most frustrating thing about school is while working in groups. It can be very hard to manage other people and making sure they participate within the group.

The most fustrating thing about my school is the expenses. I hate that it costs so much to get an education, and i feel that since this is something we need for our country (U.S.) to continue to grow then it should be affordable to everyone.

How bug and unpersonal the school is, you can get lost there and feel llike no one will even notice. It also seems liek the teachers hardly care, and when they do, its only because they dont like you.

The financial aid office. They do not care about the student and their needs, they irresponsibly forgot to send my loan through so I waited months to get the loan I was approved for long ago, which hurt my chances of getting into the classes I needed and it hurt my credit because I had payments that I needed to make and was depending on that loan money. The academic advising is nothing to brag about either, advisors act as if it is not their job to help you find your classes.

personaly i have not encountered anything worth calling frustrating.

Tutoring schedule doesn't coincide with my classes and it's very difficult for me to get tutoring.

The professor make a lot of mistakes.

There is very limited surrounding houses or apartments to live in around campus that is affordable. Also, I feel financial aid is not distributed in a timely or fair manner to every student who needs it, especially the availability of work-study or on-campus jobs.

Well for me right now, is gaining money to go to school, and i have not recieved my financial aod yet from the school. I have filled exactly 86 scholarships and still have not gained any yet.

The most frustrating issues about this school is, when teaching assistants are not qulified for their jod causing your grade to be faultered.

There are so many students in public places, like the Union, that sometimes it's hard to move around and quite crowded.

The most frustrating thing about school is when I feel like I am being held back. I understand the need for certain general education requirements and competency requirements, they do serve a purpose, but sometimes, I feel, the need to fulfill certain requirements are not benefiting me and, therefore, are wasting my time. These are classes that don?t challenge me, and I am taking them, primarily, just to fulfill a requirement set by the University. Furthermore, it is frustrating when these classes have nothing to do with the major I am trying to pursue.
