Other: During my time, in school, I wanted to challenge myself and get a headstart on college. So I decided to explore the option of enrollment at Montgomery College. The application process was quite demanding. I found it worthwhile because of the flexibility in class timings and the opportunity to earn college credits. Once I got enrolled I appreciated how flexible the class timings were, for example, my distance learning Film110 course. This allowed me to effectively tailor my study schedule according to my needs. The ability to earn college credits while in school turned out to be incredibly valuable as it reduced the burden of pursuing a degree in the future. The nurturing environment at Montgomery College along with professors who provided unwavering support throughout my journey made a difference. This experience has not just prepared me for academic challenges but has also fueled my career aspirations.... Read 1,739 reviews

Alum: Best community college ever! Saved a lot of money and most professors are sweethearts. I loved classes in person prior to COVID, after COVID I stuck with online courses. Alexandria Campus has lot of spots you can study other than the library. Extremely diverse, loved having classes with different people all ages. Most professors genuinely care for the wellbeing of their students. Admin could do a lot better, wouldn't trust advisors too much. Do your own research on what classes you need to graduate NOVA/ transfer to a 4 year.... Read 2,914 reviews

Freshman: Attending CSM has been amazing so far. I did take a break for about 2 years, but I am so glad I've returned. The teachers have been nothing but helpful in my journey towards my academic goals and the overall sense of community is just amazing! I would like to maybe see a change in the hours that the school book store is and maybe if they would be able to carry books instore that would be helpful to some students.... Read 778 reviews

College Senior: Although everything is touched on in core, you're not going to remember every single thing you were taught once you're out on the clinic floor, the teachers know that. That makes them willing and eager to refresh your mind or redemonstrate something for you. All of the things I have been taught so far I have been able to apply to what I've been doing, and continue perfecting those skills. Teachers will offer 'mini-classes' on all sorts of different topics, depending what is students are wanting to learn, or what's in season right now.... Read 7 reviews
