Cayuga Community College is an excellent choice for students who know they want to attend college and further their education, but may be unsure of exactly what they want to do. It is also a great choice for students on a budget, like myself. There are many ways to contact different departments to receive help when needed. The staff are very friendly and willing to assist students in any way they can!
[Auburn Campus] Okay students, not the most driven. Some good and some bad teachers just like most colleges. Very small class sizes which is awesome! You can't fall asleep in class because it's so small. Incredible in-house access to tutors for practically any subject, both paid student and adult tutors. Dorms (offsite) aren't the best but they're functional and affordable with a bus that takes you from dorms to campus. Classes are easier than university level which is a great segway from high school to 4-year or a nice way to get an associate's degree. SUNY so credits transfer to pretty much any SUNY school.
I'm not going to kid you and say this was the best college experience ever. This school is a compromise; I've had amazing professors and I've had terrible ones, but for the what you're spending, it's a deal. Some programs are significantly better than others (the Telecom program is great and I've heard very good things about Nursing). About half of the professors genuinely care and want you to succeed; find the ones you like and stick with them. Because the school is so small, it gives you a lot of one-on-one experience with them, as well. Avoid Lattimore Hall if you can, it's much more worth it to commute or get your own place in Auburn considering how often the cops get called on that place. That being said, it's a great college if you're on a budget and looking for a college that can help you transition from high school to a university.
