Jeremiah - 04/30/2023

As a current student at Sinclair College, I have had a generally positive experience with the institution. The faculty members are knowledgeable and approachable, always willing to help students succeed. The campus facilities are well-maintained, creating a conducive learning environment. However, I would like to offer some constructive criticism. One area that could be improved is the availability of extracurricular activities. While there are some clubs and organizations on campus, I believe that expanding the range of options would greatly enhance the overall student experience. More diverse activities and opportunities for engagement would foster a stronger sense of community and provide students with a chance to explore their interests outside of the classroom. Another area that could benefit from improvement is the accessibility of resources for students with disabilities. While efforts have been made to accommodate individuals with diverse needs, there is still room for improvement in terms of providing comprehensive support and ensuring that all facilities and services are fully accessible. Additionally, enhancing the career services and internship opportunities would be highly beneficial. Providing more guidance and resources for students to connect with potential employers and gain practical experience in their fields of study would greatly enhance their career prospects after graduation. Overall, I appreciate the quality of education at Sinclair College and the dedication of its faculty. By addressing the areas mentioned, the college can further enhance the student experience and better prepare students for their future endeavors.

My overall opinion of Sinclair Community College is all of the faculty that I have come into contact with have been nothing but helpful. Also, I love the diversity of the students here. If you are not wanting to be in debt it seems like you will never get out this is a great school to start off your first two years. Also, you can come to this college for summer to save money just make sure they transfer to the college you go to other semesters.

I did go to Sinclair but I transferred my credits. I think that this college is a very affordable amazing place to learn. The teachers are willing to help you succeed and they give you everything you need to do so. It is a great place to make friends and a great place to meet new people. To me, the library is the best place to be at Sinclair. That's just my opinion. If you go to Sinclair, you'll be leaving with a great education.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    If I could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior, knowing what I know now about the above mentioned, I would tell myself that I was making the right choice by planning to attend Sinclair Community College. I used to be down on myself because I was not going to a 4-year university right away, like most of my friends, but I did not yet know for sure which field I wanted to enter. Had I gone to a 4-year right away, I would have wasted thousands of dollars my single mom and I both had worked hard for. Because I was upset with myself for not going to a university immediately after high school, I would tell myself not to worry because I am going far and achieving dreams of mine...without wasting money, which makes it that much sweeter!
