Christopher - 01/12/2023

It is a amazing school that has a lot too offer. I would recommend this school only to people who are not looking to live on campus and still would like to go to school. One thing I will say about this school is sometimes you may feel like you are overwhelmed with classes/work but you can speak to your advisor and they will talk to you and work things out.

Joshua - 01/05/2022

Not the best college experience. I would only go when I have class and would leave right away. Due to Covid-19, the majority of my classes were online. I did not make friends and would only come on campus when I had to. I would suggest that students go to a four year college where it is more enjoyable.

Belmendo - 05/05/2020

Is a good college that you can go to the school have good staff members. The good are a bit expensive but overall the campus are good and the teachers know how to teach well. In the beginning of the school you won't know as much but you will learn a lot.
