College of DuPage Reviews
Rating 3.81 out of 5 1,690 reviews
Overall, the college is great! I was terrified to go to college but I've been fortunate to have good professors and a welcoming environment that made the transition easier! I truly wish they would make it a 4-year school considering its size and creditability. The only complaint I would have is with the cashier and financial aid offices, as they are not very helpful and tend to make you run around in circles to get any questions answered.
It’s amazing! Love the diversity but I am going into a program there and it’s more than I can afford. Well to start off, I am a first generation student with my parents being immigrants from Pakistan. We are closely attached and love one another and have managed to make it this far throughout the Covid-19 journey. It has affected everyone worldwide and we have managed to get through it as a unit. It taught me to look at the more important things in life like what I'm actually going to do with my future. I need to continue with an education and build a solid foundation for myself and the people I care for. I have grown to learn and manage my time, work hard and effectively, yet still enjoy time with the people I love. I found a balance. I am working towards a better future and going for the dental hygiene program here at COD will allow me to help others and hopefully make others smile.
I enjoy the campus and school, have made a few friends and have learned a lot from my professors! Since attending, I think at least 3 of my professors have retired; one class was just completely unorganized altogether (not a fault of the professor, but of the actual school). I will say that people don't stop to make connections here though, majority of the people in my classes just come to class and leave right away. No one talks to each other during or outside, which is interesting.
