Ryan

Atlantic Cape Community College is a great place to start off ones college years. The college buildings are close by compared to other colleges so there's no need to walk a long distance from point A to point B. The environment is welcoming and the staff are very polite towards their students. However; one of the negatives things about Atlantic Cape Community College would be the parking and the sizes of some classrooms. Throughout the day, students tend to be late due to the shortage of parking spaces. The classroom sizes are a problem as well because some classes can be filled to where all the desks are taken and about two to three students would have to stand or grab a desk from a nearby empty classroom. Overall, Atlantic Cape Community College is a great community college and would highly recommend it to others.

Ashley

ACCC is an amazing school where everyone is very helpful! There is a welcoming community and even the workers are very nice. The janitors talk to the students and the security officers treat us like best friends. I love how the college is so clean and the teachers really care about the students!

Uyen

My college is a community college but there's nothing really special about the campus really. We partake in class. I personally don't talk to anyone outside of class. Some teachers are great, while others aren't due to their skills in teaching. Overall, I am neutral about this college. I don't love it but I don't hate it either.

Mike

All of the campuses are beautiful and filled with people who are involved and want to be there. The professors are all very interesting people and the smaller class sizes allow them to further explain any subject without much of a problem. The food on campus is very well made and is given to students for free on certain days.

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

    I am not a traditional student, I am a divorced mom returning to the workforce soon. I wish that I had gone to college prior to later in life. I was not able to attend prior, or at least I thought I couldn't make it through college due to finances and opportunity. I have since realized this dream, I will be graduating with my A.A.S. in Hospitality Management on May 20th, 2010. Thereafter, I intend to continue my education for my Bachelors in Hospitality Management .

  9. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    When I was about to graduate from highschool I wasn't sure about going to a community college before moving on to a four year university. However, once i started my classes that first fall I knew I had made the right choice. I believe that every highschool student should start their college experience at a community college, especially since most freshmen aren't sure what degree they want to pursue.

  13. What is your overall opinion of this school?

    My overall opinion about this school is mixed for many reasons. The pros can cover the cons; for instance, I love that the school accepts anyone, every community college does that, but it is still nice. The Cape May Campus is always clean and friendly, I love how it feels like home all the time. The Professors care about the students and they will do anything for a respectful student who is willing to learn. If one student is slacking, they have no problem pointing it out which is nice for the students who work their ass off trying to earn a 4.0 GPA. The classes are nice, nice class size and they are very clean, yet cold. Changing your major is super easy to do, just a check mark and a signature, nothing else. The financial aid office at the Cape May campus is super nice and everyone is glad to help. This is also the only school where the janitors love the students and interact with them, it is awesome. Now for the cons; the Mays Landing campus is out-dated, old floors that are wavy and disgusting. The food is never vegetarian or vegan friendly, there is so much meat! The financial aid office at the Mays Landing campus is very rude and horrible to the students, I cannot believe no one is getting fired from that office, it is insane! The only clubs at this college, are located in the Mays Landing campus which sucks for the students at the Cape May campus. Overall, I love this school, it feels like home and I am happy to be there.
