    Community College of Aurora is a fantastic school that encourages the growth of students at a mental and emotional level. They want students to improve! They want to see students achieve academically and they want to see them achieve in the work-force. The Denver Metro area and by extension the city of Aurora is an incredibly diverse area that makes it easy to become involved in multiple cultural programs and experiences. The professors understand that the students attending this school have big plans for the future; whether that's transferring to a four-year university or achieving in the work-force with their new and improved skills and abilities.

    My time at the Aurora Community College was pleasant. I am a part-time student, and a full time worker. The campus offered a wide variety of classes, applicable to all types of careers, including paramedics. I really appreciated the campus's efficiency in alerting students of closures due to weather, holidays, etc., saving me the trip to campus. The staff, especially the counselors, were all very knowledgable in their respective positions, from assisting in the required classes to advance, to the professors, whom all had experience (and in many cases, degrees) in their fields, allowing full comprehension. I also appreciated the tutors and help available, via reservations, to aid in assignment understanding and completion. If there were one thing I would critique, it would be the inability to reach anyone via the telephone. I would strongly recommend showing up, in-person, to get help.
    I have experienced warmth, friendliness, and kindness. The people at this school aren’t only staff members but family!
