Review This School
Y. A.
What is your school best known for?The Fraternity parties (AlphaWeek is the most anticipated event each year)!!!What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?The financial aid office never answers the phone and there is ALWAYS a line at the begining of each semester. They also tend to lose paperwork so it is best to keep your original copies of everything you turn in at this University and never handle anything at the last minute!
