The University of Pittsburgh Pittsburgh Campus

Oakland is best described as urban ruins, filled with pollution, traffic, and crime. Only a few buildings are maintained at all, with the rest practically in shambles. The administration is a mess. You can expect to be sent all over the campus to find any answers, and wait weeks for any problems to be resolved. Commuting requires an average of 20 minutes to find a parking spot, but still preferable to living there. Two of my friends had their car sound-systems and valuables stolen just outside my apartment. The worst problem, however, is that most of the students there are media-controlled liberal drones with no personality, culture, or religion, and it shows in the disappointing list of student activities. The only service that has benefitted me was the counseling center, where I am recieving psychiatric treatment for the clinical depression I have from living there for a year. Unless you love cheap beer, bad music, and liberals, you will not enjoy this University.

Male -- Class 2000

Went to pitt for a year and a half, absolutely hated the environment, and transferred. the people and the overpopulated, crowded campus are terrible. you honestly do not feel like your going to a college, its a complete waste of money and the university really does not go out of its way to provide musicians, comedians or other forms of entertainment for their students. the football games are terrible, the party scene is atrocious, don't waste your time, go somewhere else.

1st Year Male -- Class 2010

Scholastic Success: B-, Education Quality: F

It's too late for me to transfer, as I will be graduating in the spring, but I wish that I had done so after my first semester at this place. It sucks.
