Freshman: So far, I have had a few problems with the university. I understand the goals of the institution and the objectives that the university strives to achieve. The diverse climate in the school is one of my favorite things about the school! The multiple backgrounds of students across campus and the specific groups have allowed me to witness and work alongside different people and similar people as myself. It has made me feel much more welcome and accepted. The only issue I hope to see improvement on within the next couple of years is the school's informational side. When searching online, I am hunting for information and having to call to find out things that I should easily be able to locate. These can include courses, financial aid, and teachers' profiles. If there was an easier system to figure out this information or to be able to view all of the information in one location, the process of application and viewing my situation would be much simpler and easier to perceive....

Sophomore: CNM has been an absolutely wonderful school to attend. They provide so many resources and opportunities for all kinds of students. Associate's Degrees, Trade School Degrees, High School Diplomas, you name it! I enrolled full-time through the dual-credit program and ended up taking between 4-6 classes a semester. The professors and staff are really helpful and everyone truly cares about fostering success here! I'm excited to earn my Second and Third Associate's Degrees here in December. The online flexibility they provide also make it extremely convenient for busy students such as myself (juggling part-time work and full-time high school at the same time). While I prepare for the transfer process, I know CNM will always hold a special place in my heart. Do note that despite the many on-campus programs available, students are very anti-social, so try and find some friends from high school to come along with you! :) Also, campus is still a lot safer than UNM but still in a bad area....

Junior: So far, the experience whilst AT SCHOOL...has been amazing. The experience(on my behalf) GETTING TO SCHOOL, is rough...as the local bus route only cater to people within city limits. That means, if you do not live near a main road/real street, you will be on your own in terms of getting to school. But, BACK TO SCHOOL itself...I am taking Game Design & Simulation, and Ian Burh is a darn-good teacher...as well as most other professors I have had the chance to learn from within my 1st year(and on-going 2nd) so far. If you are struggling over which college to choose, pick Valencia, as it is an amazing foot-in-the-door to get you started before you choose main-campus...or some other state :).... Read 196 reviews

Sophomore: Everyone is very kind and welcoming, They provided me with tools and resources for my online classes, and I appreciate that they have the tools for assistance with subjects that may not be fully clear. Registering for school was easy, and they were also accommodating. Now that I am attending in person and online, they have provided guidance and additional assistance with the schedule along with other tools for tutoring or questions that may arise during online classes so that you don't have to wait for the next in-person class with any questions or for clarifications. The teachers are very approachable. The flexibility this school has provided me as a single parent is the ability to do my prerequisites online. They offer a variety of majors and provide guidance for finances along with course information and in-school financial assistance, which has been helpful for those of us who do not have co-signers or help from family with our finances. Overall great school and I do recommend it.... Read 103 reviews

Freshman: After nearing the end of my first semester, I have to say I absolutely love this school. This school is very challenging but you definitely get what you pay for. The faculty is wonderful and they are putting constant effort into bettering their programs and the teachers are always open to critiques from us students and actively try to improve! I’ve never been to a school that values me this much as a student.... Read 64 reviews
