申请点评
- Student Body: Students interact but not on a strong level. They're just there to get the requirements out of the way.
- Campus Resources: Absolutely ridiculous. They charged me for classes I didn't even apply for, and then wouldn't let me pay out in order to get my transcripts to transfer. I have 60 credit hours there that I can't use. The website is a joke.
- Campus Resources: I would not expect a community college to have such great facilities and administration, but from what I have seen so far, I think I will feel right at home!
- Academic Experience: These programs are available to multiple people even if you do not qualify for financial aid.
- Academic Experience: It's everything you need when it comes to education. They have all of the basic courses that you would need for your associates or if you are looking to transfer. As far as specializing in certain things, I don't think they offer that for you would have to go to an actual university to get that.
- Academic Experience: This school offers so much. They truly want you to succeed as a student. We have counselors that can talk with you and are able to figure out your study style. They are awesome. They have computer labs and a ton of different places where you can study.*(4)
