Housatonic is a great community oriented school. I decided to go there to complete my pre-requisite for Dental Hygiene and all of my credits were transfers. I love the campus and professor so much that decided to complete my associates degree and Health Science certification. Professor are great and the tactics they use to teach you complex concepts, especially in the science field, I can say that have stuck with me until this day where I am completing my undergrad degree. This is a school that constantly recommend this school to coworkers and fellow church members when they decide to embark into their college career. The school is affordable and student oriented, providing assistance for the FAFSA process and other programs which can help you cover tuition. I am a proud alumni of Housaronic Community College!
I think HCC is a great school with a lot of options for those who still stay at home but want to pursue a higher education. Definitely has the best night course options of any school I have been to. Also the school is in a great location, and has the best professors and nicest staff as well! I do, however, wish the school had more options in the healthcare field (which I am pursuing), because I would have liked to graduate from here because it is so close to home and I have enjoyed my time here. The campus is also super clean, and I have never felt unsafe while in the walls. Again, if more programs were offered I would have given the school a solid 5 stars, but maybe that will change with the CCSU merger happening in the coming years.
I had a great experience at Housatonic, and met a lot of wonderful helpful Professors through my Journey. I left with so much knowledge and background in Early Childhood Inclusive Education.
