Southwestern College is truly a good college to go! It is a bridge connecting high school to community college to university! Southwestern is a small college which will help you transition from the high school setting. As well as the professors there are genuine, are willing to help you understand the material and give tips and tricks to help for when you apply/are at a university. Southwestern also captures a variety of different people with different backgrounds and interests, you're bound to make a friend. The counselors are also incredibly helpful and provide many types of resources and programs regarding your first year, financial assistance, transferring and obtaining your degree. I highly recommend Southwestern college, to build that college experience, connect with many others, finding your personal interests and achieving what you strive to be!
The online experience at Southwestern was great! As many are skeptical about online classes, I gave it a shot and ended up enjoying it and passing my classes with A's and B's. The professors make online classes interesting by creating powerpoints, including videos as well as interactive by creating discussions to have with others. As well as being free to have any concern or question be answered. If going to campus or not having enough time to physically be in class, online classes will help you achieve your college credits while absorbing the information!
Southwestern College is an excellent institution, offering a wide range of program opportunities including: Art, Cultural Studies, Health & Medical Occupations, Public Safety, and more. This community college is the home of passionate professors that strive to give students a high quality experience, with competitive and challenging curriculum, preparing the student for transferring to a four year institution. Southwestern College attracts a diverse student population and is on the forefront of providing equitable education, while equipping students to develop professional excellence, simultaneously embracing the need for cultural proficiency. The values of Southwestern college are built upon a student centered foundation, providing an inclusive environment with an abundance of support systems that foster success and personal development. In my experience, I know that our faculty care deeply about our futures and choose to be a part of our community, honoring the human connection.
