    I enjoyed the small school atmosphere, and the small cost to be able to gather credits before transferring to my chosen college this fall. I would change some things, for example some syllabuses are not relevant or even available. I also would change the overall unity between course expectations.

    This college is very nice. The classrooms aren't too big and the teachers are very kind and respectful. They also have computer rooms on campus which is really convenient for those who cannot buy laptops. Overall, the college is great.

The professors work to help you achieve your academic goals , as a High school student taking college classes while in HS they made this opportunity available and it was excellent.
