Edgecombe Community College Reviews

So far, within the year I have been at my local college, I have found it to be a good community filled with people that really do care. The staff members are friend and some of the most helpful people in regards to education. There were a lot of things that I was confused with in the beginning of the first semester, but the wonderful people cleared it up for me very quickly so I could get focused on my work and not have to worry excessively. The students who attend are really nice as well. They're easy to get along with and if you ask a question you always get a good answer. I've even had help from some of them with my work when teachers are busy and it's a great thing to have- people that know what they're doing and are proud doing it. If you're looking for a college with great Staff and excellent Students, this is the college to go to.

This is a great a school, especially for first year students. They have a program called The Edge that provide workshops and surveys to keep up with how beginning students are doing and to see what can make it easier for students to succeed. Also the student success center and advisors stay in contact with students each semester to ensure that we are on task.
This is my third semester and Edgecombe and from day one your open up with a welcome hand. It was rocky at the beginning my grades that went from a 2.0 to a 3.0 which was the help from my teachers who helped me every step of the way. I wouldn't change anything about the school except this school is a very supporting school who loves their students. When I was about to give up my advisor gave me the best advice. Never say never because anything is possible. Keep up with what your do and keep all the staff and teachers as well.
