Central Penn College Reviews
Rating 3.93 out of 5 246 reviews
It's a very small school which is really nice because you get to personally know your professors and peers. There is a sense of community and family like nothing I've experienced before. They genuinely care about their students and all aspects of their lives. There's always fun activities to participate in as well when not in the classroom. I've enjoyed the fast past term schedule instead of semesters as I'm always learning something instead of being bored spending two weeks on one topic like I have in past schools. This is a great school for diversity, inclusion, family feeling, and for anyone who enjoys small schools.
I attended this college for both my associates and my bachelor's degrees. I only have positive things to say. All of the professors are extremely helpful and genuinely care about your success. The ladies who help with the financial aid stuff, as well as the requirement staff, have been fantastic. They make the procedure simple and stress-free.
Overall, Central Penn college is an excellent school for online classes. I liked that the semesters are accelerated so students can graduate sooner. The only complaint is that its soo expensive and sometimes the professors are not as involved.
