SUNY at Albany Top Questions

There's really nothing frustrating about UA...other than maybe the buses don't run 24/7.

The most frustrating thing I have found here is that there are almost too many things to do. The extra curricular activites are made so that they attract so many people. i wish I could do them all but I would then have a problem handling my school work. It gets frustrating because I feel like I am missing out on some activities that I would love to do. I try to balance it out so I do several different things per smester or year, however there is just not enough time in the day!
