Lackawanna College is a great college. Classes range from students just out of high school to adult learners looking to further their career. The teachers I had were eager to help if you had an issue with the material being taught. Most teachers did not require you to purchase your books from the bookstore which was a huge benefit when purchasing books! I would recommend this college to anyone!

Amber

My opinion of Lackawanna College is that they care about their students a lot. Because the teachers care about how their students partake in their education, they also make sure we know what our grades are even if we are failing the class. Lakawanna College has tons of curricular activities like sports and student lounge for the students to relax in they can play games or study for test or focus on their school work that needs to be done. They have a student wellness program that they have almost every week it is when you sign a form and take a survey to receive points through out the months. it gives you the chance to feel like you belong. There is writing labs to help you with essays and papers that you are having trouble with. They also have tutors for all different courses, it helps the students that are having trouble in classes and they do help. the teachers are also very helpful with students when they need the help they deserve. i am glad i decided to join Lackawanna College when i did best decision i have ever made.
