The faculty members are informative and helpful, especially when you get along with your favorite teachers. This is a good school for getting a degree in an aviation related program. It is the only aviation school that is located in the tri-state area in New York City which is next to LaGuardia Airport and busses to Manhattan, Brooklyn, and other areas in Queens makes commuting easier for those who lives in the tri-state area. The tuition is expensive which makes paying for tuition tedious but you can still register for the courses next semester if the final balance is at $500 or less. If you are a pilot and you want an R-ATP license, then go for Aircraft Operations program. Otherwise, go to aeronautical science program and fly for another flight school in Republic airport or Westchester airport. Just plan ahead and you don't have to go into too many problems.
Overall it’s a good school, but I feel like it can be a lot better. I’m doing the Aviation Maintenance program and honestly for all the money the charge it’s definitely not worth it. I would seriously apply to schools elsewhere. The only reason I still go to school here is because of the amazing location. It’s perfect for my job, and my personal life and If it weren’t for the location I would’ve left by now.
I came to Vaughn to study Mechanical Engineering. Being relatively a new offering, the curriculum proved to be one of the greatest planned out engineering courses. The professors here are excellent. You learn a lot of information and go more in depth than other schools. The great thing about the college is its small class size. You can really ask questions and understand the topics. Speaking from industry experience the Engineering professors at Vaughn helped me truly understand core principles that aided me in distinguishing myself from other candidates from other schools in the same degree. This is an excellent school and has created a very strong foundation for my professional career.
