Quinsigamond Community College

Quinsigamond isn't really what I expected as a college experience. The lunch cafeteria is very similar to high school, the professors aren't very strict and are a bit laid in their teaching. I have talked to my classmates and they all agreed that the professors are very lazy in their work and us students are paying to be taught but instead we have to self-learn through the whole major.

Quinsigamond Community College is an overall good school. The price is reasonable per semester and there are a huge choice of classes....IF you register early. The food when I went was trash however they have since outsourced their cafeteria but I have yet to be back. In regard to extra curricular activities there are plenty to choose from and if there isn't anything you like you can create a club for it. The staff are mostly personable however in regard to knowing enough but the place of work not everyone is on the same page. I needed assistance with class things and depending on who I asked the answer was different. That being said if you're looking for a good starter school Quinsigamond Community College is an easy affordable start and most credits will transfer out whether you decide to graduate or transfer.

I love this college so far it is perfect for what I am looking for in a college !

I did not really enjoy the school because of the environment. The school academics wise i think highly of, but when it comes to the feel of the schools and its students I did not really enjoy. It was a community college, so naturally there are going to be people of different backgrounds. All of those people had there own lives to live so they were not concerned with staying on campus longer than they needed. That was a type of feel I did not like, it wasn't a real sense of community.

Quinsigamond is a really good school to start off. They offer many courses that are accredited. QCC also has a really good programs in the medical, science, and business field. Professors are really good at communicating back to students, and the teacher student ratio is great. Wished they offered more online classes.

Quinsigamond community college is a nice campus and has some very great professors. Some professors however are not very concerned on making sure you understand the material and leave you to answer questions yourself. There are also professors who care greatly if you understand what you are learning

It's a small school in a safe environment. There's not many opportunities for extracurricular activities, but there is Greek life, a few athletic programs and some fitness classes. Some teachers are awesome, some are just rude and disrespectful. It's an inexpensive college to attend, especially when hoping to transfer into a four-year school and doing the 30k tuition plan is a great option for an inexpensive education at public colleges.

In my opinion, Quinsigamond Community College is a great college for higher education and is highly respected and well-known due to its affordability and locality. Here at QCC professors will take the time to thoroughly address class goals and expectations. Professors also take the time to address student concerns or questions. The atmosphere is calm and friendly as well as very safe.

Quinsig is a huge commuter school where there are all kinds of people of different ages and culture and it's always interesting. You're constantly meeting new people yet you see familiar faces on the regular. It's a great learning environment. They are constantly expanding and updating. I feel like I'm getting the best education I can possibly get and I'm happy to be a student here.

Quinsigamond community college is a great school for those who need to save money on college costs or are unsure of their educational path. The variety of majors offered is fairly good and there are plenty of certificate programs for those looking to further their education without getting a degree. It is the only affordable pre-pharmacy program in the state of Massachusetts and they prepare students well for different majors or career options. I highly suggest working with your advisor or professors as they are very knowledgeable with course recommendations. In addition to having great academics on campus, they offer many opportunities for students whose intention is to transfer to a four-year institution afterward. The transfer services frequently host transfer college fairs and invite admissions from other schools to come throughout the semester. They also have a very active Phi Theta Kappa chapter and offer an honors program as well. Both of these allow for more opportunities for community service and extracurriculars for your transfer applications. There are also various clubs and sports on campus but it's not necessary to participate to be social on campus as most students will be at the library or in the Harrington Learning Center between classes. Overall, the school offers an affordable education, in a convenient area of Worcester. They hold articulation agreements with local universities and are a part of the MassTransfer program. I have not had any problems with this school so far and do not foresee any for the coming semester.
