I loved my time at SWCC. The community and campus is amazing. If you are wanting somewhere that you can be involved, this is the place for you! Everyone is included, everyone is welcome, and everyone is family. Great teachers and staff, events are always happening on campus. On campus housing is spacious and apartment style. There is also plenty of people renting in the community within short distance to the school!
I personally do not like taking online classes because I like being in a classroom and interacting with my classmates and teachers face to face. However, I took Intro to Psychology and Intro to Sociology online and it wasn’t bad! Canvas is easy to use. I really like the set up. Most online classes have threaded discussions due every week. You just have to make sure you are on top of things and getting your work turned in on time.
My online experience at SWCC was fantastic. I took both in person and online classes and found no preference. The online teachers are fantastic, always available for questions or to set up conferences for questions. If you are easily distracted, they offer lots of resources to aid in study and help!
