Look, I didn't expect the most challenging coursework at VCU, but I also expected a semblance of academia. They'll wow you with their talk about exciting basketball and facility upgrades, but VCU needs to seriously work on the basic pillar of being a university: academics. I transferred into VCU from Northern Virginia Community College and I depressingly learned more at that school than I did at VCU. Also, the professors at the undergraduate level lack the professionalism and teaching prowess that you'd expect of a university employee (which is especially annoying considering the cost of an education these days); most of mine didn't even have PhDs. Also, the social scene is terrible if you're not a hipster (which seem to make up the majority of the school). And while I'm fairly liberal myself, I'm still open-minded to other point of views. God help you if you have conservative leanings 'cause these hipsters that claim to be open-minded will rain down their wrath on you like there's no tomorrow. All in all, I'm highly disappointed at VCU.
