Often the only and/or the last resort as an option for higher education among Caribbean students. While some Faculties have been updated/ upgraded throughout the years, others have remained basically the same since many Caribbean nations were still colonies. Rude/ unhelpful administrators ensures customer service is always bad, lack of funding means that the University is seemingly always on the verge of banruptcy, and trying to eek out as money much from students. That wouldn't be so bad, if there were decent facilities- but good luck finding a textbook or research paper written within the last 5 yearsfrom the library, and you should always expect something to not work at some time or the other. There are some very good lecturers here, but UWI also hosts the literal worst, who fail so spectacularly at saying something remotely comprehensible in the span of 1-2 hours . It goes without saying water, internet and electricity problems are expected.
I don't have any money to go to a passably decent university away. Guess I'll have to go UWI. How bad could it be

A UWI Gyal can either be a big hoe, completely innocent or just playing she innocent. Once she on main campus she's ah hoe. A UWI gyal WILL horn you nevertheless. Especially if she did csec or cape in saghs, saraswati or convent.
Gosh, it's so hard to figure out which UWI gyal is a hoe.
