Super Brilliant
Some professors are amazing, but many are lazy and do the bare minimum or have horrid curriculum that they haven't changed for decades. However, the worst part about UCD is its advisors. They are almost universally rude, uninformed, negligent, and simply unhelpful. I can't even calculate the number of times I've had a simple question to ask, and have not received a call or email back. Much of the faculty seems to absolutely loathe students (their employers), and should be cleaned out asap. Just...don't go here. You can do better. If you do choose to go here, just be prepared for some massive headaches, ridiculous bureaucracy and $#%hole faculty members (hi, business department).

A very impersonal school. It is difficult to find support from teachers or classmates. So far only half my teachers seem qualified to be teaching.

Quite Bright
My overall opinion of UCD is very low. I do not know if the entire university deserves this rap; Biology and pre-med students seem to be enjoying their work, but the Department of Electrical Engineering most certainly does not enjoy anything beyond taking your money. To be fair the Dean of Engineering is trying to fix this issue, but what can you do if you can’t fire tenured professors? I would most seriously warn potential students to look carefully at this school, sit in on some classes, not just freshman level either, find out where the students hang out and ask them questions about the college, and the major you want to pursue.
