I think it is an excellent option for the majority of generals and lower level classes. The price is right, the class size are much more reasonable-- I actually know everyone's name in ALL of my onsite classes--and the advisors and front desk are super accessible and helpful.

One of the many benefits of attending CMC is the number of beautiful locations which offer several different degrees to choose from. The classes are small which allow for more personalized education. Teachers are also always willing to meet with you if needed after class hours and all my teachers have shown genuine care for me academically. I absolutely love CMC and all the opportunities it has offered me in such little time. CMC is very helpful in several ways; personal connections, financial help and supportive. This community college is not only affordable but it provides such a caring feeling - you don't seem like just another student. Great, great college!

Overall this is an excellent small school. There might not be close shops around that you can walk to, but there are good places to go to if you have transportation. The school is perfectly located on a mountain so you don't have to worry about noise. You're surrounded by nature all around so it is peaceful.

This is a school providing phenomenal opportunities in the mountains of Colorado. As one of the most inexpensive bachelor's degrees available in the nation, with small class sizes and dedicated, devoted instructors, this network of 11 campuses is a hidden gem.
