    I've had very good professors and most of them are always willing to help you learn! Started with Indian River State College as a sophomore in high school as a dual enrollment student and am now in my senior year of high school. I have only had one bad teacher and even then she had good character, just wasn't very good at teaching. I am grateful for the time I have spent here and I have gotten good quality education for all the effort I have put in.

    Indian River State College is full of opportunities. Many of the professors changed my life for the better. Indian River State College shaped me into a leader and i could not thank this school more. Best experience and will definitely miss it when i graduate. In 2019, the school won the Aspen prize as one of the top college in the nation!
    Indian River State College is a college full of opportunities. I love that there is a variety of options for each and every student attending college there and that they won’t be ignored when they are lost or confused during their college experience. One thing I would like to see change is that sometimes it is not easy to get in contact with someone at a local IRSC campus, so I would like that to change!
