The conditions at this school is so terrible. Firstly, I will give props to SOME of the buildings and many of the professors, they are pretty great most of the time. However, it is quite terrible here. Multiple of the dorm halls don’t have ANY air conditioning and bats and roaches frequent many of the buildings.

The school is going more downhill each day. The dining locations are understaffed, students are surprised with more closings and less options for campus engagement, and yet tuition is going to be over $80,000 next year. Wooster should consider actually putting effort into the school instead of attempting to show off for alumnus, trustees, and potential students. Know that if you go here, financial aid and all other related offices won't be concerned with helping you as soon as you submit that deposit and...
