West Chester University of Pennsylvania Top Questions

Pain in the ass to find parking

Lack of involvement between professionals in the field and career development.

The worst thing about my school would have to be the amount of Greek life. While there is nothing wrong with Greek life, more than 60{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of campus is apart of Greek life, making it hard for those that are not in Greek life to socialize. I found that most students that come to my university choose to go out for Greek life because it seems like everyone on campus is in it.

The wifi service is terrible, and I usually end up using my data which is really unfair considering how much I pay to live here. The wifi should be better equipped to service all the students, since we all do pay a good amount to be here.

This will be my first year at WCU so I cannot answer that. I can answer for the two years I spent at Montgomery County Community College. The worst thing about that school was the atmosphere. The typical community college student is a C- student who could care less about their goals, aspirations and their commuity. It was an unbearable two years at the school. Thankfully, I am going to a 4 year school and am living on campus! Cannot wait til next month!

The worst thing about West Chester University of Pennsylvania is not the amount of students, but rather the amount of students that do not care. For the past four years I have worked my hardest through all of my classes to do well. There is a large amount of students that slack off or intentionally allow themselves to fail with confidence that they may retake the class for a better grade. Many of my fellow students have disappointed me in their ability to understand the requirements of a course that result in a passing grade.

There are two things I think WCU really needs to work on. These are affordable housing availability and parking. Students have a great deal of unnecessary stress when it comes to finding a place to live and/or park. I feel like there is not a common ground between affiliated and traditional housing. Also, finding a place to park on campus is close to impossible. And I've found that if you do find a spot, you most likely receive a $20 parking ticket, and these tickets add up quickly.

I am afraid of girls

Sometimes the faculty seems disinterested in students and the advising is difficult

I believe that the parking situation at West Chester University is the worst aspect about the university. The reason being that the parking lot signs are quite confusing. An individual residing on North Campus with a "N" parking pass would assume they park where "N" permits are admitted. The individual will then park in a parking lot with a sign that says "N parking permit", and then they'll receive a $20 parking ticket. Then you find the employee that ticketed your car to find out that there is only ONE parking spot for "N" parking permits in that lot.
