Kent State University at Kent Top Questions

The most frustrating thing about Kent is that when you have a question regarding something such as testing or placement. If you call one of the offices in charge of it, you get a lot of run around because no one will take it upon themselves to look it up and they simply say that it is not their area.

There is always so much to do, but never enough time because of my workload.

The most frustrating thing about my school is that the town that my school is located in is so small. There is very little to do or be attracted to in this town. In order to have a good time most students have to go to another city close by. Unfortunately this tactic costs money and is difficult to accomplish without a car. This town is way to rural for me.

The way that academic advising works and the way that there is no real guidence because of the size of the school.

Making appoitments with advisors is the most frustrating thing. There are so many students and not enough advisors to accomidate all of the students.

Prior to the start of my Junior year, I decided to move in with my girlfriend. Needless to say we were not ready to move in with each each other but we adjusted easily and got a little dog named Enzo.

The advisors here typically don't know very much about the programs they are advising you on.

How windy it gets. When it rains sometimes you can not use an umbrella because it will blow away.

Sometimes it seems communication can be an issue. From those advertising events to the staff and faculty. I feel it is very necessary as an individual to keep your peeled and and stay on top of everything!!! I guess as an adult, we should though! :)

Honestly It would have to be parking services. They distribute tickets at such a high volume it becomes quite ridiculous. But I guess all in all I would rather be frustrated about a parking ticket than my classes.

Finding adequate parking can be difficult at times.

Dealing with the financial aid aspect of it. It seems to be too hard to get financial aid,. Also the school needs to notify students when they need something from the student such as a missing paper that needs to be filled out to complete financial aid, or any other papers needed. I had trouble with that where I wouldn't find out that I was missing a paper until I called them a bunch of times because my financial aid wasn't going through.
