What makes my school unique, is that Olive Harvey helps college students get on the right track and help them study and learn more about their majors so they can prepare ourselves into our future careers. I would choose this school again if I could do it all over so the only thing that I would focus on is my nursing career.
Review City Colleges of Chicago - Olive-Harvey College
It's definitely not a bad school; It's especially good if funds are too low for university, considering that you can transfer/travel elsewhere after 2 years, or whenever needed, and having a scholarship that pays your way through 2 years is nice. A little boring, but nice.
I love the classes. It has all the classes I need for my major. The professors are great and really care for the students. One thing I would like to see changed is more diversity and better prices for the school lunch
