I am just thankful for the fact that I will be up for Graduation for Spring 2018. I cannot comment a positive review here because that would be a lie! Teachers are the best here I will say along with some departmental staff. However, I just learned 5-6 years ago the new dean started students working in departmental positions and that's where it really is down hill at. These students work over residents hall after 5pm yet they don't show up to work at the desk and still will receive a paycheck/and or room & board for free. The real world wont allow that at all. Secondly, the fact that housing only has 1,214 spots left and incoming students having even registered for the 2017-2018 year. I feel for them because I was in this same boat last fall and being 3 states away I decided I would go homeless if I had to get this masters. It took a very God-fearing Christian to help me get housed when everyone else in housing was telling me No space as a 4.0 GPA student but campus drug dealers and students now that are in these computer labs trying to maintain a C average on work that should of been done Jan-Feb were housed. I will just be glad to graduate and pray that somebody's see this post as a warning to know what you are signing up for before coming. Its nothing to discredit this university, but it is not the "friendly-peachy" community that it is made out to be! Everyday is struggle for me because If I cared to be communized with the streets, I don't need to be paying $7,992.oo/semester to do so! it...

There not even livable conditions, roaches crawling around every night in the hallways, a rat even came into one of the dorms room another residence hall claim to have mold in their closets and housing don’t do anything about.we should not pay to live in dorms that suitable for living period. Also The finical aid advisors are very rude, and the hardest to get into contact with especially over the phone like they are the most important people on campus dealing with students finical aid, scholarships and etc and it’s hard to get into contact with them like ???Ms.Mitchell is very rude ( she’s a finical aid advisor) I did not understand what she was saying and kept asking her questions and she seem like she was getting upset with me just for asking questions....There’s nothing around school so nothing is in walking distance, and all the dorms are on the hill so if you don’t mind walking up and down the hill every time to get to your dorm this is the school for you. . There’s no communication the finical aid does not contact you to see what type of forms you are missing so when you go to the book store and try to use your loans for the books your unable to receive them. Will be transferring...
Read moreI didn't even get started but got treated with so much disrespect. I only called to inquire about transferring into their psychology program and the lady that answered the phone in that department was beyond rude. She answered and I asked some of my question of which she just said, "hold on!" She then proceeded to carry on a conversation with someone in the back, asking where he was going, while laughing, joking, and flirting with him. She continued talking for about 30 more seconds and hung up in my face. I called back thinking that it may have been a mistake because she got too wrapped up into her convo and she picked up the phone but didn't talk into it. Instead, she continued the conversation being between her and the guy and she hung up again. Going to check into UAH or others that are, hopefully, more educated and...
