It a small campus with culturally diverse students. Its a college based on math and science majors . Vaughn focuses on students interest in aviation. Since its a small school, students have closer contact with the professors and the help they need. Usually classes have up to 25 students or less. Professors get to know their students better when its a small class. Classes are very close to each other and are only in one building so you don't get lost. Student life is key to be successful since working together will help you accomplish goals better. Since its an FAA regulated school there is no parties which makes the campus quiet.

In general Vaughn College is a small school, but it has a great learning environment. Its a type of school that you want to go to if you want to finish quick and get a lot of hands-on experience with people who are extremely experieced. If there’s anything i would love to see it changed are the school doorms to at least make them bedroom bigger and more spacious. All in all, it’s still a great school and I would recommend it 100% to anyone.
So far in the first few days of attending this college, the classes are engaging especially since the professors know what they're talking about and the small classes.The planned student activities and workshops are pretty cool and informative. The students who attend this school varies a lot in terms of age.It's not the most prestigious school, but there are good opportunities and connections if you do really well. The professors are familiar and speak about some alumnis that have been hired at big companies while still in college because of outstanding work; which is pretty good to look forward to and for attracting students.
