If I could give this school no stars I would, they lied to me the entire time when attempting to get me to come to the school. I work full time and I am an adult so I was looking for evening classes or possibly weekend classes. I just finished at tri- c and was looking for the same flexibility due to my work schedule. Informed this to the many academic councilors that I had spoken with and all of them stated yes that the University could accommodate me but they can’t tell me which classes are offered at what time until I speak with a scheduling councilor. I don’t mind the payment to apply but then they also make you pay for orientation. So I attend orientation and it’s supposed to last for majority of the day, I meet with the councilor and he proceeds to tell me he can enroll me in 1 class and that maybe I should go part time because ALL of the rest of my classes are during the day.....I immediately leave and ask for a refund and they have been dodging me ever since. I am not expecting the refund for applying but I was blatantly lied to and they won’t refund my money. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME...ALL THEY WANT IS MONEY!!!

Earned a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Akron. What a garbage commuter school. School does nothing for students or helping with job placement. I wish I would have gone to Kent State Stark Campus for first two years, and saved money. Don't go here all four years; you're a fool if you do. Thankfully I worked contacts to land an excellent job. The fact I had an engineering degree cinched career for me, not that it was from Akron. This place is simply the worst. I should have spent extra on a degree from Case Western, or saved money at Kent - Stark Branch.

I do not have anything negative to say about the University of Akron. Quality education taught by quality professors.

In the moderately sized and mediocre town of Akron Ohio comes a beautiful but mediocre university. Nothing is truly impressive of the school. It is heavily updated and the classes are nice but it is very basic.

Just finished my second year at Akron, I'm currently studying Mechanical Engineering. Everyone will tell you the extreme worst and the extreme best, but Akron is home. I'm from Akron and I originally wanted to go to OSU because, well its OSU. But seeing the family community lifestyle Akron offers, I'm staying. OSU's engineering department is so massive, they don't care about the individual. Akron's professors are difficult, but common people, we are in college. These classes are suppose to be difficult. Akron professors do care about their students even if then barely speak any English. Plus with the money you are paying, Akron is a fantastic school. If you are applying as a freshman or transferring, keep Akron in the loop. AK! -Rammi Qaqish
