I first attended Bellevue College as a running start student in 2019/20 and have since graduated. I returned this summer to continue my college education and hopefully transfer to a university and complete my degree in Botany/Plant Biology. Bellevue college has overall been a really great experience. All of my teachers have been wonderful and the staff are kind and easy to work with. If you're not ready to dive straight into a university or you're looking to continue your education later in life this school is a great choice. They have a huge variety of classes to attend and the campus is quite diverse. There are a lot of running start students though so be prepared to be around high school students, especially in 100 level courses.
I think overall the school, especially with first year seminar being a requirement to take to graduate, is a welcoming place and does not hesitate to share accessible resources to students such as free academic advising, counseling, technical/career advice, and more. I would like to see a wider variety of classes, a lot of courses seem either too specialized in a specific topic or it’s too general (art classes for example only focus on either the history, 3d art, 2d art, and not much more in depth about exploring art forms).
Bellevue College is terrible; there's a lack of professors, and many courses are entirely online. While online instruction can be acceptable, it's disappointing that professors don't conduct live, scheduled classes but instead provide random online videos, without creating the content themselves. They also claim to offer office hours, but the lack of discipline is apparent. I don't understand why we're paying so much for these self-taught online courses.
I love the college. I don’t really wanna join any of the clubs or am I interested in the sports so this school is perfect. It’s just sometimes very rarely that you meet people that you aren’t very wanting to interact but other than that everyone is more focused on themselves so I don’t need to mind my actions too much
The class work was spaced out, and the teachers would engage, instead of just doing it for work. I'd like to see the total atmosphere change because it felt closed off, or people weren't that friendly.
Being at Bellevue college has been a wonderful experience. Everyone there is so kind and welcoming, it’s very diverse and has many interactive events. The classes themselves are very personal. It’s so easy to build a connection with students or teachers.
So far it's been wonderful. Bellevue college has great staff, great students, and overall great community!
What I liked about Bellevue College was that all the professors I've taken courses with were very nice and created safe learning environments that encouraged students to ask for help or ask questions on course content. Additionally, it's evident that many of the professors at this school truly care about their students and they put in the time to make sure their students understand the material they're teaching. I would like to see changes in how the school sites are run, because sometimes they are not very user friendly and it can be a little difficult to navigate.
I chose to study computer science at Bellevue College because of its exceptional program and professors. This turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made. The curriculum provided me with a comprehensive foundation in coding languages, algorithms, data structures, and more. The hands-on labs and projects allowed me to gain practical experience using the latest technologies.
One thing that made Bellevue College stand out was the amazing instructors. My professors had real-world experience at major tech companies like Microsoft and Amazon. Their insider knowledge brought lessons to life and enriched my learning experience immensely. The professors took the time to get to know me and provide personalized mentorship inside and outside of class. They went above and beyond to ensure I fully grasped important concepts.

My time at Bellevue College has been enriching. The diverse student body allowed me to engage with various cultures, broadening my perspective. Accessible and knowledgeable faculty have been supportive, fostering a conducive learning environment. The campus offers great study spots, and community-building events add vibrancy. However, parking remains a challenge, and enhancing cultural inclusion in the curriculum would be beneficial. Overall, Bellevue College offers a positive experience with opportunities for growth.
Horrible student support. I paid for classes out of pocket although I had FAFSA money> Student aid told me that I would be reimbursed. I was not reimbursed and they told there was a name mismatch. We got the name mismatch fixed and the told me that I would NOW get reimbursed for the 2 classes that I paid out of pocket. they never did, they will answer the phone, you have to submit a request if you want to talk to someone and they will call you back if they want. Otherwise you will get an email stating that your case is closed. Horrible horrible horrible. Stay away unless you have the money to pay. Now I am financially ruined.
I was in the nursing program. Overall it was good. The organization could have been slightly better but overall my experience was good
The campus was well taken care of with new buildings and classrooms, the teachers for the most part were helpful and knowledgeable, and the dorms were very nice. Overall, I had a positive academic experience at Bellevue college, however I would like to see some more attention paid to the online courses, with more specific help available for those classes and students.
Bellevue College was a great location for me to complete my prerequisites for nursing school. Everything was easy in terms of applying and registering. Campus was nice and felt safe. Teachers were knowledgeable and very helpful.

What I love about Bellevue College is how very accessible, communicative, and open the professors, other faculty, and students are. I get 101 time with my professors all of the time without a problem. The gym is so clean and accessible to all. The classroom sizes aren’t too big that makes me feel to uncomfortable since I am a shy person. For now, I don’t see any changes being needed.
We have lived in Bellevue, WA for four years so that I can go to a good college. I already graduated from it on June 15, 2018. I am a good student and a hard worker.
