The administration here is a joke. From the billing and financial aid departments to the admissions and continuing education departments, my spouse and I have received nothing but challenges from inept and complacent employees. They don't care about their jobs or their customers (the students). Each semester produces a new debacle that needs to be worked through. I had to fight to get accepted because I was told my application was submitted for the wrong semester. They said I had applied online for the Spring of 08 in Mar of 08. Applying for Spring wasn't an option on their website as the semester was half way over. I had paperwork printed out with details assuring me I was right. I was quickly then told I was excepted and never offered an apology or explanation. This has set the trend that has only continued! A dean attacked my wife verbally about a misunderstanding. And when the dean realized she was in the wrong, she then dropped to the level of a petty child and told my wife apropos of nothing, she was parked in the wrong parking lot and would probably get a ticket. The attitudes at this college are a disgrace and people have forgotten the students are the University's reason for existence. We both hold degrees from other schools, she has since left UD for another school. I continue only because of its where I live and I'm almost done. I've become so annoyed by my constant struggle that I have long since dismissed attending here for Grad School as well.
