What's the most frustrating thing about Virginia Commonwealth University?

Jennifer

The most frustrating thing about my school is that there isn't a great sense of community. I've been here for a while and it's hard to make friends. There aren't really many opportunities to really connect with someone. Maybe it's just me, but I do wish there was more of an effort to get students to connect.

The most frustrating thing about VCU would be that it is hard to tell who actually is in college and who isn't. Being a heavily urban campus, you are constantly surround by the real world with a large percentage of poeple that are not students. This takes away from the college atmosphere that your expecting when you go to school.

Shameka

The most frustrating thing about my school is the parking becasue it is expensive, inconvenient, and non existent.

Chase

There is not much to be frustated about in this school, one thing though is the choices of food we can use swipes on. As it gets very tiring to eat the same things over and over again, it would be nice to have more places and businesses that take swipes so we could have more varity in the food we eat.

I think the fact that the location is very old and poor. It certainly needs to renovate its rusty, broken sidewalks because they're a danger to everyone, especially runners! I also don't like the fact that the campus is near dangerous neighborhoods and every now and then our alarm goes off because some thug is running past our campus holding a shotgun.

How the websites don't seem to have enough complete information. The information is scattered around multiple websites when they should all be together on one page.

Ashley

Finding ways to fund my education

Shyra

The two most frustrating things about my school would have to be the financial aid department and the bus. Our financial aid department SUCKS! Itt's like they don't really care about what's going on in our lives. It's very frustrating going in multiple times and they do nothing but give you the run around.

Arika

The most frustrating part about VCU is that there's a lack of a college experience because it is scattered throughout Richmond.

Justin

The only thing I could that would be most frustrating about my school is that there is a considerable amount of homeless people on and around the campus.
