Overall, I had a wonderful experience with the professors and courses I took for my psyc degree at the U of A. One major issue I had was the lack of personal connection when it came to administration. University fees were often not explained well and because of the sheer volume of students they deal with on a regular basis, you're shipped through like a heard of cattle. Another issue is PARKING! Oh my goodness, parking costs are through the roof!! Even for students that are already paying a very high tuition. Parking facilities are often not up to date (eg.out of service or simply don't work because of the cold) and their only response is to ticket students. I love this school, but I hate that the raw truth is the university of Alberta is out to make a buck on you.. in more than one way. Cheap shots on students to make the extra buck overshadow all the positives about this school in my opinion.
