What's the most frustrating thing about Middle Tennessee State University?

Esther

Classes were to large.

Not to much help with students who have exceeded their loans, or can't afford school after financial aid has tried. It stays really busy in the financial aid office so it takes awhile for them to receive faxes, return calls, or emails.

Sondra

The most frustrating aspect of MTSU is communication with my advisor. The advising department is very helpful but my advisor has been slow to respond during crucial times. Fortunately, I was able to speak to abother advisor who handled my dilemma the same day.

Sara

It tends to rain a lot in Murfreesboro and with MTSU being a flat campus there's a lot of flooded areas.

Cadari

Honestly, their isn't anything frustrating about MTSU every thing is at ones disposal and there is countless amounts of help and oppurtunity.

Christian

One of the most frustrating things at MTSU can be parking. It is hard to find parking spots sometimes and the big parking lot is far away from campus requiring students to take the shuttle which can take long. However, they are currently building two parking garages which should help alleviate the problem.

Elizabeth

Finding a good parking spot is a competition. This is especially true if I have a morning class.

Veronique

I would only say the most talked about issue on this campus is parking. The parking space availability on campus for all students is limited.

Keibreona

The most frustrating thing at Middle Tennessee State University is the construction as of now because it makes the buses extremely late and you have to walk around everything which makes you late to class.

josiah

how much work that has to go into the class and not knowing what to do at certain time because you are expected to know already.

Adrienne

The most frustrating thing about my school is when dealing with the different offices for financail aid or the admissions office. It is really hard to get ahold of somebody who will help you out when you are calling to get something fixed. They would usually just give you someone else number and just be sent in a circle all day. Everytime I needed to get something fixed I would have to drive all the way to campus so they couldn't just brush me off onto someone else.

Financial Aid can be really slow with getting your info during the deadline seasons. It can be irritating, especially when you keep checking for notices of change and don't recieve one, but then suddenly you see a change on your bill.

Sarah

The most frustrating thing would almost be school spirit. I would say about 60{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the students are proud UNC Bears, but the other 40{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} should be involved more in school spirit. I think school related events would be so much more fun if the students would support their school no matter what!

Takia

That financial aid takes forever to let you know what you need to do and the office is always crowded at the beginning of the semester when everyone has to get thier last minute stuff in.

Edwin

The most frustrating thing is actually how many of the professors here will hold the students hand through classes. It is almost as is this college has adopted the "no child left behind" ideal. This is frustrating because many times it feels like high school all over again and not like a competitive college that is intent on preparing you for a career.

Erica

The most frustrating thing about my school is the meal plans are so expensive. So i am currently just paying out of pocket for all of my food. I wish I had a meal plan so it could be one less thing i had to worry about. Thats why if i won this $5000 i would buy a meal plan.

Robert

The most frustrating thing about my school is how the tuition increases every year. I can look aroud my campus and see new multi-million dollar buildings being built. This is not beneficial to me since I am having to pay more every year in order to finance the building process through my tuition, and this is something I have no control over. It is very frustrating to have to take out more loans every semester to be able to afford my education.

Ashley

Parking is awful at MT. It is best to live on campus if you can just to prevent having to park before class. However, there are shuttles from most of the major apartment complexes nearby. There is also a bus called the raider xpress that rides through the campus. Just get to campus early if you plan on riding it. It gets better as the semester goes by but the first 2 weeks of class are tough. Don't expect to park near your classes and bring your walking shoes.

Jessica

Parking is absoluately frustrating at MTSU considering around thirty-thousand students attend MTSU and only around nine-thousand parking places.
