申请点评
- Overall Experience: I chose this school because it was two year technical school - meaning short and cheap. I didn't want to be in school forever and didn't want to be drowning in debt afterwards. But it's honestly surpassed my expectations in terms of quality classes, professors who are both knowledgeable and understanding, assignments that are up to current standards and small enough class sizes that you actually know the names of everyone in class.
- Campus Resources: The admin was the worst they could never help with anything and you had to go through EVERYONE it felt like just to accomplish small things.
- Campus Resources: One thing that is discouraging, I was awarded work study monies - but there are not enough work study jobs. That has made my semester very difficult. I need the work study job to be able to buy gas to drive back and forth.
- Campus Quality: The location of the campus is in the middle of nowhere. One of the worse parts - is leaving campus - there is no light or stop sign - it is especially difficult to leave campus when you turn left - especially in the bad MN winters - very scary - and not safe.
- Campus Resources: It is small and intimately personal. The staff is involved and that is special. The staff and students are friendly and mature. It is like living in a small town, where everybody knows your name. Good leadership and it sets the tone for a very comfortable learning community.
- Academic Experience: I think there is variety across topics, but not a lot within certain topics. I am sure it would be impossible to offer lots within each topic. I enjoy the flexibility of location as well as how the class is presented (online, in the classroom, or a hybrid). Some teachers are better that others in providing feedback, but I think that is typical.*(4)
