Nathaniel - 08/25/2020

Overall, I love it there because of the transportation, locations are very convenient, and I basically did well in that school. I would really love to stay there if I was given the opportunity. Plus, I even had my former writing professor help me with my biography that I'm currently working on as we speak

EMCC is a small campus with a low student to teacher ration, however they do not offer many extracurricular activities. We do not have any sports teams at all and the student senate seems nonexistent (I'm actually not positive that there is one). Although the academics are okay, it's not a great place to make new friends or spend more time than you have to on campus. On top of that, the library consists of 1 floor of a building and there are almost no quiet places on campus available to study.

Eastern Maine Community College offers opportunities to learn both on and off campus. Many of my classes happen on the side of cliffs, or on roaring rivers. Not many programs offer such an amazing experiential education, and EMCC offers one of those programs. The class sizes for my program are a maximum of 16 students, but rarely exceeds 10. If you want an affordable, experience oriented, and fun college to attend I can't think of a better place.

I love Eastern Maine Community College and have been going here for about four years. They have online classes and they work with my schedule and allow me to go to school part-time while I’m working full-time. The staff and faculty are very friendly.

Enjoy life and don't let what happened in the past hold you down. Make mistakes, don't be afraid of what people think, and follow your dreams.
