Black River Technical College Reviews
Rating 4.14 out of 5 156 reviews
I love Black River Technical College. The faculty has went above and beyond to help me exceed and reach my fullest potential. I struggle in high school and after 11 years of being out of school, I took the leap to return to school. I love it so much that I now want to pursue a Bachelor's degree and transfer to a 4-year university. Every teacher has been extremely helpful, the majority of them love their job and are very passionate. I am proud to be a Black Hawk at Black River Tech!
For the most part this college is a good starting point, but... They do not care about the students. I had proof of some major things I was going through in life and although my advisor tried to help me drop a class MONDAY, they refused to allow me to because last day to drop was the FRIDAY before! It would have been simple to let me drop when they knew if I failed the class it would take away my financial aid, and they knew due to issues with my health I would be unable to complete the semester. They just wanted the money, did not care about me. Otherwise it is a good school to prepare you to go to a 4 year institution.
I started at Black River technical College in the fall of 2019 as A 42-year-old working mom of three. I found their online format to be very welcoming, their instructors very accommodating and my advisor was fantastic! They offered a wide variety of degree programs and online classes to help me complete my associates of art and associate of general study by May of 2022.
