Before
I attened NKU I attened Morehead State University. I never
had any problems what so ever from MSU. As soon
as I transfered to NKU I encountered nothing but problems,
from the transfer itself all the way to financial aid
and bill pay. Not only in my opinion but in
many that I talk to NKU is nothing but money
hungry. They are cut throat and will do absolutely anything
to get their money. When I attened MSU they were
willing to work with you as much as possible not
NKU. I am currently not atteneding NKU due to back
tuition. I have attempted numerous times to work with them
on this which they have refused. They want all the
back pay at once. Working a part time job that
is just not possible for me, even though I am
trying my absolute best and have been steadily saving money
to pay this off. I emailed the bursar office and
the person I ended up speaking with was nothing but
rude and treated me like I was less of a
person. I shouldn't have expected ANYTHING DIFFERENT FROM THE BURSAR.
All of the employees of the burars office are rude,
mean and arrogant. They treat you like a piece of
crap.
My brother is currently atteneding and he has
had the same troubles I have, including difficulties with the
financial aid department. The financial aid department is very difficult
to work with as well. You fill out all the
paper work you are supposed to, then they come back
after and say you have to do something else. More
then 50% of the time its a stock form. They
believe that you are hiding money from them in some
way or another. They have you go through a mound
of paperwork because they firmly believe that you are trying
to scam them out of money.
So if you
are a person without means I would advise not atteneding
this university. If you are not rich you will be
treated as a lower class of person. Universities like this
one make it very hard for people like me to
obtain an education, I want to attened college and get
a better job. NKU makes that impossible.
On a good
note. The faculty that I have worked with are AMAZING.
Some may have other opinions but for the ones I
have personally had a professors have been nothing but exceptional.
They have worked with me and helped me with content
I didn't fully understand. Its a shame the the internal
workings of NKU are so horrible because they really do
have an awesome amount of very good and helpful professors.
