CUNY LaGuardia Community College Reviews
Rating 3.76 out of 5 1,099 reviews
Although the many buildings can be daunting to a new coming student, the environment remains warm and welcoming. The professors are fluent in their field and very accommodating to all kinds of circumstances and are genuine in their attempt to reach out to any student that may be struggling. There is a plethora of clubs, programs and other extracurricular activities available to every student - including an accessible gym and a swimming area. In my year and a half attending, it is clear that I made the right choice in picking a school accommodating of those who seek flexibility and opportunity. Despite my major (political science) not being prolific or popular, it is very easy to maintain and build connections with other students in classes or in the general campus area. The area is also accommodating of students by maintaining multiple places to eat or grab a drink if needed - in fact, there are starbucks located inside multiple buildings. LaGuardia is a great school for everybody!
LaGuardia Community College has been an exceptional institution that has provided me with a well-rounded education and an enriching college experience. Its commitment to diversity, dedicated faculty, supportive student services, career-focused programs, and engaging extracurricular activities are commendable. While there are areas for improvement, such as infrastructure upgrades, enhanced communication channels, expanded scholarship opportunities, and strengthened transfer pathways, LaGuardia remains a remarkable place for personal and academic growth. I am grateful for the opportunities and experiences it has offered me, and I would highly recommend LaGuardia Community College to anyone seeking a quality education in a diverse and inclusive environment.
LaGuardia Community College is a wonderful school dedicated to community, education and building the leaders of tomorrow. The campus itself is easy to navigate and always has extra curricular activities and events to attend. I frequented the concerts held by the music department, the film festivals held by the film department, as well as the black history month events, the honors society events, and even various sit-ins with the president himself. Everything at LaGuardia feels accessible no matter how long you may have been attending. The professors at LaGuardia all took the time to memorize what degree each student was pursuing and offered individualized job opportunities, internships, events and more to us. They weren't just there to teach us the subject but to also provide us with the tools to grow in the direction of our goals. LaGuardia Community College was my first experience with college life and I think it's going to be tough to beat.
