Washington State University Top Questions

The worst thing about WSU is the cost of tuition and books. I realize that most 4-year universities have a high tuition and cost of books but being in state i think it's a bit ridiculous, and hard to manage.

The worst part of the school is its built on rolling hills. You actually have to go a walk mile up two hills in the snow, when there is snow, to one class. But then your next might be on the other side of campus so the process starts over. I personally have had shin splints sereval times going to my classes.

This school truly has no flaws in my eyes. The "worst" part of it is not being able to know each and every single person who creates such a great community vibe. If I had the ability to know even ten percent of the staff and students at this university, it would feel more like home. Why? Because I graduated from a small school, all grades on one campus, with a class size of less than forty students. I love knowing everyone and would love to know every single person who is here, making an impact on the world.

The worst thing about Washington State University is that there are many large classes. This is the worst thing about the school because the introduction classes with too many students do not dig deep into what the class is about. With fewer students in classes there can be more in depth discussions and the professor can help students go beyond knowledge gained in class. In larger classes exams are just multiple choice, while small class exams can expand and students are more challenged on what they learn. This is why the worst thing about the school is large classes.

The parking and buildings are so far apart that in the winter it is cold walking from your car and from class to class.

The school's greatest drawback is its location. The school is in a rural location that is very conservative and doesnt offer alot of options when it comes to activities. There is no hiking, few outdoor activities or parks available in summer or winter, and few cultural experiences like indie film, ethnic food, or theater. The closest cities are atleast 45 minutes awat, and all roads leading to the university are narrow, winding and can shut down during the winter from snow.

nothing to do.

I would have to say that the worst thing about my school is their uncanny ability to avoid scoring a touchdown in their football games. Their football team's only consistency is in their ability to lose by 25 odd points every game. Some would say the isolation is the worst thing but the students at my campus know how to make the isolation work for them.

The worste thing about WSU is that they don't send out billings for tuition it must be looked at online. This is sufficient in saving paper but a reminder e-mail would be nice.

The worst thing about Washington State University is the hills! While the academic program here is great, the hills can be SUCH a burden! But don't worry, I know that what drives me to walk up those hills to class everyday is the prospect of where this education will get me. A great career and a great life! I know I would walk up a THOUSAND hills to reach my goals. I would climb mountains. So aren't these little hills here at WSU worth it?
