The faculty and staff are extremely helpful in getting/staying on track towards your degree. As someone who has delayed my college degree, I had a great deal of angst in moving forward, but everyone, including my fellow students, have really helped lessen my anxiety!
Great experience! From the minute you enroll and speak with an Advisor up to all communication with Fin Aid department. The instructors are amazing. Really make you feel comfortable and help you understand the material easily.
