Pierpont Community & Technical College Reviews
Rating 4.25 out of 5 137 reviews
Pierpont does not have any sports programs. My experience with Pierpont has been great! All the professors/teachers are amazing and very understanding. It's normally a two year school, but since I'm in two programs I'm here for an extra semester. Classes are easy to follow not to difficult, except when COVID hit in 2020. It was easy to jump back to semi-normal classes after those cases died down throughout the summer that year. As of now I'm in my last semester and having no problems with any professors/teachers. Classes are running smoothly and no issues.
My experience at Pierpont Community and Technical College is an interesting one, to say the least. I would start out by saying that most of the instructors at this school are very nice and helpful. You always felt welcome in a classroom at Pierpont. The academics were among the best I've seen in a community college, everything that was offered competed with most university options.
In short, if you are looking for a college that not only is affordable but offers the same academics as a university you should go with Pierpont.
