Love to learn!

I really like the atmosphere at my university. We have a great library where we can study, and if we have any questions, there is always someone available to help us. Most of my professors were well-qualified and respected in my country. However, some of them were new and did not have much teaching experience, even though they taught important courses such as Data Structures. Overall, I love my university, and I think that if you studied there, you would feel the same way.

Disrespectful administration!

To be fair, this university has its redeeming qualities: you will share classrooms with exceptionally sharp, competitive peers, and there are still truly dedicated and knowledgeable professors who care about their students. Unfortunately, that is where the positives end. The single worst aspect of studying here is the sheer administrative decay. While the bureaucracy itself isn't necessarily complex, navigating it is an exhausting, undignified ordeal. The administrative staff are consistently indifferent, unhelpful, and at times outright disrespectful. A concrete example: when I faced an issue with an incorrectly recorded grade and an unfair absence—despite being fully present—I received zero guidance. Instead of resolving a straightforward administrative error, the staff dismissed every piece of valid documentation I provided with bizarre, evasive excuses. Rather than supporting students, the system treats you like a nuisance. Academically, the majority of the curriculum remains outdated and disconnected from practical applications, surviving mostly on the merit of a few isolated faculty members. Verdict: No matter how you look at it, it simply isn't worth the frustration and mental toll. The talent of the students is wasted on an institution that fails to treat them with basic human respect. Look elsewhere if you value your peace of mind.
