University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh

"If there are any parents of prospective future students scouring these comments while they help their child select a college, or if you are a prospective student, heed my warning: I genuinely plead you to not choose UWO. The professors are wonderful. The classes are wonderful. However, there are so many incompetent leaders and red tape here that get in the way of having a valuable experience & undermines the professors and students at every level."

"Mentorship, frugality, goal-setting. Time and devotion. A substance of UWO and UWO Fox. A product of a failed future (i.e., mine). A substance induced in response to distress. School in one word: distress. If I could do it all over again, it would be to make it about the journey, not about the destination. When I first left UWO, I remember my [enrollment class] counselor. I remember a sense of anticipation. Failure. Regret. Sorrow. Depression. When I first left UWO Fox, I remember staff members who held the belief that they were bad. My context wasn't good. My environment wasn't good. And as far as re-writing my story/history goes, I feel pretty neutral about anything and everything after doing a thorough analysis and think-back."

"Love paying $300 a year for a parking pass to maybe have a chance to get lucky enough to possibly get a parking spot. They sell way more passes than spots available which has caused me to miss many, many classes. I swear everything about this place is a sceme to make as much money while simultaneously screwing over as many students as possible. If you wish to attend this school just expect to be dissapointed and enraged at how poorly everything is done. They do a great job taking a Highschool graduate that's excited about their field and draining them of any ambition they had to the point where it feels like life is a nightmare. I seriously hate this school and wish I went somewhere else."

"I LOVE UWO it is a great place never had issues with any department. I enjoyed all my classes. The instructors and professors were all great."

"The bureaucrats who work here are worthless. They will look you in the eye and say that it is your responsibility to do their job for them. They have no idea how to answer a question in a way which helps you in correcting a problem or acquiring the information you seek. The student interns are hit or miss. Some seem to have gained an understanding of how customer service works and will go out of their way to help you, the rest follow the lead of incompetents who are not even qualified to ask "Do you want fries with that?" Do what I did and run away their are other Universities which will treat you with respect."
