The University of Alaska - Anchorage

Aside from accepting me as a declared chemistry student and then dropping the chemistry program mid-way through my degree, this university shows a complete lack of THINKING about its students. I pay about $2000 for one semesters worth of a pathetic excuse for a "meal-plan" and yet go to sleep hungry because of the AWFUL hours of operation for EVERY on campus food source. A student shouldn't have to make their entire scholastic schedule revolve around what times their university serves food. The teachers are very diverse; some teachers are phenomenal and others are so awful that I can't possibly grasp how they have a job. Two of these awful teachers are Kennish and Lawton. Both teachers care NOTHING about their students learning the material and it is very clear. My recommendation: find another university.

I transferred from UAF, and wished that I never left. I have been here for a year and it has been horrible. The only majors or programs worth entering into is nursing, WWAMI, and aviation. I felt that I wasn't challenge at all, and that I wasted money on a D- education. I have had several problems with faculty, staff, and admin (university center-financial aid, etc). I have talk to people in different departments and other students, and have to sum up that UAA is nothing but a big community college. UAF by far is the better pick in Alaska and then APU. UAA should not be on anyone's list for college choices. The housing and res life do not communicate, and the apartments are run down. The residence halls are new, but you have to have a meal plan that doesn't roll over.
