Honestly, I'm just starting out at the college of lake county, and for a community college, it's absolutely wonderful! They have so much support to help you make it through everything you make have trouble with. Alongside a strong PRIDE Program that often has on-campus events, they also have a wonderful mental health group named CAPS that is run by licensed therapists to help students get through difficult mental obsticals they may encounter in their lives. Furthermore, the staff are absolutely wonderful and it always seems like everyone wants you to succeed. Finally, the amount of support they have is ludicrous. They offer you free food and hygenic resources to feed and care for your family, apt resources for transportation like bus passes and gas cards, and a wonderful writing and tutoring center where you can spend as much time as you want, getting any and all help you may need!
I graduated 2019 and was going to go to a university, but once I seen the cost I realized that's something I can't afford nor did I even know what I wanted in a career. Instead I got a job and focused on what interested me and founded the career I was looking for! I have this ambition to become a vet I am also vegan so my love for animals are beyond the moon. After seeing Lake county community college science majors, programs, and everything they have to offered I felt like this is a place where I can be comfortable in my own skin. They worked around my schedule to set a tour to view the college and they reassured me that everything will be ok and handled . I was so stressed about starting college I came to this community college expecting the worst! but as soon as I entered the build I felt like family. From the financial talks , to speaking to my professors directly, to people helping me because I look lost. Lake County community college is perfect for me and a place I can thrive.
I loved my time at the College of Lake County and would definitely recommend it to any students looking on ways to save money. Starting at CLC was the smartest thing I could have done. I have had some of the most fascinating classes with teachers who I now consider mentors. The teachers I have had here were absolutely fantastic and I wish I could take their classes again! They made it fun and always pushed me to do my best academically. They were supportive and truly inspiring people. CLC has a great helpful staff as well as clean buildings. They are always expanding and looking for ways to improve the school. I am so lucky to have CLC as my local community college and I personally think everyone who has the opportunity should start here!
