Honestly, after reading reviews of this school that were just plain awful I still decided to give it chance. Literally I believe this had to be the worst decision in my 18 years of life. I've tried everything here to try and enjoy it. I joined a club, I tried to be involved, I tried to

make the best out of it

NOTHING I repeat NOTHING can make going here worth while. People are mean and arrogant, everyone has their cliques and if you're not in one too bad, and the overall environment is not welcoming at all. I came here a happy vibrant human being and I'm leaving cranky and bitter. If you have even an ounce of intelligence in you, don't waste it here. Please.

But all of this it's not the only reason I worked my butt off to transfer after my first year here. The whole system at this school is utter crap. First off housing. If u plan to live on campus, don't. What school has a "lottery" system that gives housing to people randomly and doesn't take into consideration where they came from originally? I live two hours away and was not placed but someone who lives 10 minutes away was placed. When told about this situation the administration just shrugged it off and it was basically a huge "eff you we don't care" to my face. Then you might say "oh but I'm not living on campus, that doesn't effect me!" Wrong. Parking is a joke. I've seen people miss class to find parking and if u do find parking you're probably gonna get a ticket. Then there's the financial aid department which is a complete mess, and yes they will mess with your money and not care too.

This school does NOT care about its students. Please if you take advice from anyone please understand this is not a good school. You're better saving your money not paying for $4,000+ housing and getting your AA somewhere else and transferring to a real school and not coming here.
