Sophomore: After two semesters at PC I can say that I am EXTREMELY happy about choosing this community college as my reentrance into college life as an "adult learner". After a hiatus from school due to health and financial reasons, it took the pandemic to put things into perspective and remind me of what I truly value and enjoy in life: my education. Since enrolling at PC I've found real personal and professional success and have been pleasantly surprised at how many resources the college makes available to it's student body, the extracurriculars and community involvement opportunities (I, myself, have participated in PC's business club, Model UN, the region's #1 PTK honors society, DEI facilitator training, flexible work opportunities, and choir!) and an incredibly knowledgeable staff that is earnestly interested in preparing us for success in the next steps in our careers- whether that be getting certifications, associate degree, or transferring to a fantastic university. Highly recommend!... Read 1,184 reviews

Sophomore: PVCC is a great school to start your college journey. The classes are affordable, the campus is easy to navigate, and the professors are usually pretty great. When deciding on a degree path, the advisors are excellent at helping you get on track. My last two semesters there were a bit confusing and I was having difficulty figuring out what classes I needed to sign up for so that I could properly transfer my credits to the graduate school I chose. My academic advisor was thorough and replied to my messages quickly. He made sure I was on the right track and everything has gone through correctly. The counseling office was also helpful. Classes and home life tend to be stressful for me, but having access to professionals in counseling that I could meet with for free was a blessing to me. I felt assured by them and my professors were accommodating when I talked to them about it. Of course, there's always at least one or two professors that will be difficult, but most were great to have!... Read 619 reviews

Alum: My experience at Chandler-Gilbert Community College was an amazing one. I don’t even know where to begin! I took so many different courses and learned exactly what I needed to and more. My journey of earning my Associates degree in Arts and my Associates in Science degree was filled with so much joy and I met so many incredible people along the way. There was never a boring day on the campus. The instructors are amazing, there are so many nice and kind students, and I’m so grateful for all of the friendships that I have made. There are several programs and clubs that just get you involved and filled with Coyote spirit. Even the Zoom class meetings that I experienced were helpful. If there was anything that I had to say about the improvement of the college, it would just simply be to continue spreading wisdom, kindness and excellence to whoever attends. I’m so glad that I attended this college and I’m even more thankful for all it helped me achieve!... Read 1,140 reviews

Sophomore: It was very good. I took live online classes because it was in COVID times, but it was still good given the circumstances and the affordability of it. I was happy with it, and basically the only things I would improve would be to make sure the students are understanding and don't have questions before moving on and on from lesson to lesson. I experienced this in my math class. I had straight A's in all of my classes--except for math class. This happened both semesters of the year I did college online in COVID times. The professors at this school were all quite good, I was happy with them. Most of them were very competent and good at explaining and teaching, and even the few that weren't seemed to care a lot about the well-being of the students, and be sympathetic to our situation with all the COVID online weirdness going on. If they hadn't handled that situation so gracefully, I doubt I'd even want to return to MCC. As it is, I am excited to go back this semester!... Read 1,995 reviews

Graduate Student: The campus is clean and very easy to navigate through. All my teachers were very understanding and kept the communication very clear and open. I feel blessed to have had not only great teachers but a nice well kept college close to home. From the FinAid to registration personnel all Departments were accommodating and courteous! As an older college student juggling being a mom, wife and student working full time, the classes were very accommodating. I’m sad I can’t stay here at SCC for the upcoming School year! As I got accepted at PCC for nursing. I hope to have a similar experience at PCC in the Fall 2022.... Read 539 reviews

Junior: As a junior in college, my educational journey began with dual enrollment classes at South Mountain Community College (SMCC). One of the standout features that initially drew me to SMCC was its commitment to providing online classes, SMCC made sure to cater to students like me who value the flexibility and convenience of remote learning. What truly sets SMCC apart, though, is the staff's exceptional preparedness for teaching online. In a world that has rapidly shifted towards digital education, SMCC's faculty seems to have seamlessly transitioned to this mode of instruction. Their dedication to delivering high-quality online education is evident in the way they engage with students, provide clear instructions, and create a supportive virtual learning environment. SMCC should expand scholarship opportunities to benefit online students, promoting equitable access to education.... Read 646 reviews

Sophomore: Glendale community college as a great school to attain pre requisites or even associate degrees at. They are quick and reliable to assist with any issues and always provide the best accommodations possible to each students. Has the nicest teachers that do their best to make sure you’re able to understand all the material. Not to mention how much cheaper it is to other schools! When I first started at Glendale I had signed up for a class on a different campus. I was shown to the enrollment center and got it fixed and enrolled into a new class on the correct campus in under 25minutes. There are also many different clubs and sports to be joined which makes attending campus much more enjoyable and not to mention the clean campus and beautiful architecture.... Read 1,652 reviews

Alum: I really enjoyed getting my education from University of Phoenix - Arizona! The staff was wonderful and very understanding. I was actually given a chance to do it right. I still had rules I had to follow, and the work was sometimes challenging. But who wants to be given a degree? Nobody, people want to earn them. I am thinking about going back to finish with my Bachelor's degree.... Read 108 reviews
