I attended WCU right out of high school from 2004-06. I was placed into a triple dorm room. The situation became extremely uncomfortable as we were trying to be mature in our resolving it. However, WCU didn't intervene in any way to help the situation and it was not resolved until the Spring semester. The fact that the university puts three students into a two-person dorm room is appalling and nothing more than a way of saying "we don't give a fuck if there isn't space, give us your check and you can come in." We attempted, as best we could, to resolve the situation, which incoming freshman who have so many other things to focus on like school should not be dealing with in the first place, but WCU let it spiral way out of control and never helped resolve the situation. They simply let the students deal with all the hassles while they sat back and cashed our three separate checks paying for a two-person room. As for other phases of the university, they aren't much better and their advisors are an absolute joke. I had a different advisor each of the four semesters I was there and I was the same major the entire time. Spend your money on a better state university than this place. It may be like this everywhere, but at WCU especially, you are nothing more than a number to them.
