Outstanding value! Almost all the teachers I had were engaged, cared about the students and put a lot of effort into their preparations. I was on the baseball team and can only say GREAT things about the fairness of the opportunity to prove yourself and Coach Sprowl is fiercely loyal and honest with his players.

Shelton State Community College is an amazing place to get your education! They have many different tracks to choose from, or you could get an associate's degree and then transfer to a 4-year university.
There are so many classes offered and a variety of well-known teachers! The teachers really enjoy their subject and you can tell how passionate they are when teaching. There's a variety of times available too, which is the main reason I love SSCC so much! It is super flexible for a full-time worker like me! Class sizes are small, typically around 15-20 in a class, which I feel helps you get more out of your experience. You will learn a lot, be able to ask questions, more apt to make friends, develop a relationship with your professor, etc.
