California State University-Northridge Top Questions

The worst thing about our school is that the campus feels like an upscale junior college rather than a real college campus we see on television and in movies.

There is not enough computers with acess to both the internet and microsoft word on camps. If I need acess to a computer I must arrive to school early in order to find a computer open. After nine or ten in the morning its rare to find a computer open. Also the acess to study rooms almost all are always occupied.

Well, this school is very amazing in all of it's aspects and I cannot really think of anything bad about it except that currently with California's budget cuts, I do notice that there is more difficulty for many students to get into some of the classes the need. So maybe there should be more professors and classes available.

There are too many students this year resulting in a lack of classes that are accessable. This may increase the time it takes for you to graduate.

The worst part about CSUN is the on-campus housing, in my opinion. I had a bad experience with the housing faculty and arranging of my room, and the eventual room mate set up.

Parking. There is not enough and it is overpriced.

The worst thing about the school is the tuition. It is really expesive and for someone like me who is all on their own, it is extremily difficult to make the payments.

That if you need any information, you have to find it yourself.

That there is so many apartments making it difficult to find parking. Being a female I feel a little bit worried when I have to park so far away from my apartment. I I have gotten two tickets because I had absolutely no where to park.

There is not enough focus on helping the student land a job. This is probably because the school is very large.

everything is to far from each other

The worst thing would be the lack of information on dropping a class and how to rebound from an academic failure. Some students do have a hard time and it would be nice to get some academic counselling on these matters.

The parking and the fact that everyone commutes so its hard to have a busy campus life.

Worst thing about my school would be that it's too HOT during the summer. And there isn't anything fun to do around the campus except for bowling.

Tuition is too high for off-campus students. I don't get to take advantage of any of the campus activities or campus facilities the tuition covers since I live 45 miles from campus.

The lack of jobs on or off campus for people who absolutely need a job to stay above the red.

I think the worst thing about my school is that sometimes, the classes you plan to take fill up too fast and that pushes back the graduation plan you have. I think maybe if more of the same class were given, more students would be content with their semester schedules.

The school is too small and there is really no social life on campus.

There is a great variance is students. Meaning that some students really desire to achieve success and others dont care so much. It's hard because a lot of my course work is group work and often people are unmotivated to do anything.

Parking is horrendous, and the heat is almost unbearable

Accepting students into the Pre CTVA film program and telling them if they are not accpeted into CTVA all the money and alll the prerequisites dont transfer and turn into a waste of time and money

Parking can be horrible. They have way more students than they have parking spots and that is a huge issue. If I pay $165 dollars for a parking permit I should know that I can find a spot. I shouldn't have to pay to park across the street in some neighborhood. That is ridiculous.

Horrible parking situation for students and faculty.

How big the dorms are and how dimmly lit the school is at night and the lack of security that they have on campus at night. There is security at entrances and exits but not inside the housing campus where people are walking to get to their dorms at night.

I would consider the parking the worst at the school. There are too many students and not enough parking. I have bought a parking pass and still cant find parking on campus somedays. It can really get out of control. I was late and missed my first class because I could not find parking.

That they do not offer enough classes for students to needs a pre-requisite class.
