    I loved my experience here! There are many opportunities to help students in their classes and the campus is beautiful. Most teachers are great, but just like any school there are a few bad apples in the bunch. The campus seemed very safe when I attended. I recommend this college!

    Easy classes, flexible schedules, and good professors. Great environment to create new relationships. Professors have good connections with their students, updating on each week on a test or new assignments.
    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.
