Clover park technical college is a good starting out college. If you don’t know what you want to be yet I would recommend here. The financial aid office isn’t the best you really have to push to make anything happen. Parking is okay could be better. The teachers seem to know what they are doing and majority of them are understanding. Overall I’d said a good starting out just to get credits college but not for an actual career

Alberto

The school is designed for you to be trained to get you to the workforce as soon as possible and so it is very hands-on. There aren't to many advanced classes you can use to transfer like Calculus 1. They are very slow in notifying you of your enrollment and financial aid status and so you need to keep track of your information. All in all, if you plan on transferring to a four-year school in the future, I do not recommend this college and instead are better off at a community college like Pierce college or Tacoma Community College.

Robert

Clover Park tech was NOT worth the the time and money. I was enrolled in the HVAC program there where you are forced to take ~25 credits a quarter and be in class 40 hours a week, no counting study or homework time. One teacher would preach something in the first quarter and the next quarter the other teacher will tell you to do stuff you just learned as unsafe and hazardous.

Katarina

I love it here! The instructors are always available, though they're not always helpful. But they do the best they can. I don't really feel safe on campus, there was a rape that happened. Since then no one walks by themselves, and everyone either has pepper spray or a knife on them. So be careful.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    So Christopher, congratulations on graduating High School! It's been 13 years, what a wonderful accomplishment, we should go out to celebrate. But then, It's time to get back to work. There is no time like the present while your brain is still focused on the academics already learned to build on that. It would be easy to take a break, simply take what work can be found, never returning to school. Yet, that is not the road to wealth for most people. According to most studies people who hold a two year degree which can be obtained in 5 quarters earn an average of $400,000 more over their working careers. 15 months is a small investment to make now and gives a huge payoff over a lifetime. A 4 year degree makes even more difference doubling the earnings of the person holding only a diploma. There are other benefits including more self esteem and great networking possibilities. Many great business entrepreneurs have met their partners in college. Let me help you get started, the work world can wait a few more years, you will be glad you did later, I promise!

    Originally, I wanted to get into the Media Design Program at Bates where they have KBTC Public Television broadcast facilities. It is only a block from my house, but they were full and I felt like time was important. Clover Park has a two year Graphic Design Program, space was available and the people I reached seemed responsive and professional. I am a content creator so, the Graphic Design Program at Clover Park is a perfect fit for me and I will be better for attending.
