I am currently a high school student taking courses here. The community is super cool! Decent diversity, but it's bustling and has a warm atmosphere! One complaint I would make is the online program for class work. It's inefficient, hard to figure out, and inconvenient. However, the academics so far are pretty good regardless!
Pikes Peak Community College was an excellent resource for me. It introduced me into the college environment and prepared me for major University. All the staff and instructors I interacted with were kind and helpful; clearly interested and engaged in helping each student reach their full potential. The cost for attaining my degree were reasonable, and there was a plethora of excellent resources I could take advantage of as a student. Tutoring assistance, study spaces, computer labs, and the online library were my favorite resources to use. When the transition to online learning took place in 2020, I was very impressed in PPCC's prompt response in transitioning all students to an online format, while making sure all needs were met. Once in-person classes could be attended, I was pleased to see many safety measures were in place. To anyone looking to get their degree for less cost, in an environment that is friendly and devoted to success, I absolutely recommend PPCC.
PPCC is an amazing college. I feel heard and supported here. If there is ever an issue, the student success team and my advisor help me out tremendously with finding an action plan. Most of my professors are kind, understanding, and really push me to be a better student. There are so many resources that PPCC gives to us students, from counseling to financial aid. The love I have for this school is immeasurable!
