Erin

Overall Allegany is a very friendly place. There are a numerous amount of activities and classes that fit perfectly to every individual. Everyone is very welcoming and the professors are very helpful. However, the student has to be the one to initiate the conversation. Teachers here are helpful, but only if you ask for help. There isn't much to do around the school, but the scenery is phenomenal throughout the seasons.

Tristan

I love it here so far. I was worried that I would miss out on some opportunities by going to a smaller school, but so far my classes have been very enjoyable and I feel like I'm building real world skills that I'll be able to use once I graduate. The small class size is great, the campus is pretty calm overall, and the teachers are all easily reachable. There's always room for improvement, I would be interested in a little more activity going on at the campus, and I've only actually been going here for one semester now, but it's overall been a great experience.

If you are black, stay away from this college or any college in the area of Western Maryland. I don't care if they offer to pay your entire tuition, books and housing, it is not worth it. They are die hard, to the bone racists!!!!! There were at least two black students that ended up in jail. High school students had to move away and live with relatives because of racial harassment at school that left them afraid to continue going. The coach for Dunbar High School in DC, had his team walk off the field because the local team repeatedly used racial slurs. I lived in the area for 7 years and left with a criminal record as a result of racist neighbors, law enforcement and judges.

Cierra

Overall, Allegany College of Maryland is the best affordable college I could attend. The facilities are all close together so I don't have to drive from class to class, and each building has plenty of room for me to do my studies. I enjoy learning at ACM and I am excited to learn more.

  7. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    When I first entered Allegany College of Maryland, I was so thrilled about the idea of getting to live on my own. The biggest mistake that I could have made, was letting myself get carried away in the social aspects of college. College is very expensive, and getting too carried away with all the socializing and "partying" will definitely cost you. Your grades will suffer, and sometimes this ends up affecting your financial aid/ loans. If you do too poorly for more than two semesters your financial aid will be taken away until your academics improve.
