I LOVE UW Waukesha. I was super impressed with the professors here, really amazing teachers. I think people get the wrong idea and somehow think this school is a community college when it is the same classes at UWM for a fraction of the price with the same university work. Its fun if you get involved and everyone is so nice.

I thought I would be embarrassed by a two year school but this was definitely the right choice for me.

Pros: Low-cost tuition, HIGHLY educated professors that care, and a large variety of general survey courses to gauge your interests. Cons: The students. I can't stand the spoiled little rich kids any longer. Parents pay for their education yet the student puts in no effort. Their spot could be given to someone who really needs it; what a waste.

Every college and university has gambits of professors that range from excellent to just plain bad and UWW is no exception. Make the right class and professor choices and you will succeed. Clean well maintained campus with by far the best support services of ever expierenced at any college or university. Well worth the time and money.

This school is like a high school, not a college. There's a few good professors and many not so good. The students are very immature as well. It's just not very professional at all.Note to English Lit majors: Don't take Professor Lem. Middle school teaching at best. Just go straight to one of the 4 year campuses. It's worth the money.

Worst school with the worst professors in the UW system. I've been to three UW colleges now, and UW Waukesha is by far the worst. Theres a reason they call it high school on the hill. PLEASE avoid this 2 year campus at all costs. Its a waste of 2 years and a wasted college experience. Try UW Rock County for a more proffesional atmosphere!!!

For all the freshmen out there, We are trying to save you from the snare that is Waukesha. Social aspect is not existent. Stay away from SGA at all costs. Most professors are wack and tutors are terrible, other than Scott but he won't be there. So yeah we out. GET OUT ACTUALLY

UW Waukesha is like a bad high school. Some teachers are good, but the few that aren't ramble about things irrelevant things, don't give clear instructions, fail to give you assignments until the due date, or aren't in school to begin with.

Tried joining a club, only one other person in it, food is overly priced for small portions, everyone is either high strung, or weird. Worn down and just overall 'ehh.' Low class variety and location sinks. The workers are nice, and very helpful though, only a professors bothered me so far!
