- Campus Resources: THe libraries are well equipped and we have alot of resources.The athletic centers are not all that encouraging.Athletic activities are not encouraged.THere are no teams.There are alot of different clubs,which offers a wide range of variety.
- Academic Experience: I love the classes I am taking.I am in a prenursing class and i love my classes.I get to do english,biology,nutrition and psychology;which is very exciting.There are alot of job opportunities in my field of study,which is very reassuring.We go to the lab and carry out experiments that provide better understanding of the topics taught in class.
- Academic Experience: I am a business transfer student so my classes will be transferred to a university. My classes are very simple and understandable all it takes is time management and a little studying and you are good to go. I don't feel like I get really deep in accounting but once I transfer I know I will get the feel of my career more. At school now we don't really talk about our majors we just do the work.
- Overall Experience: I've had two exceptional instructors so far at this school, both PhDs. But for the most part, the instructors have been just average or below average in subject knowledge and teaching ability. I've also been unfortunate enough to have one instructor that I considered to be a bad instructor. It was his first semester teaching a class and he decided he wanted to do a hybrid "flipped" class. So the first hour was two hours of instruction crammed into one hour, then the second was more of a tutor/do your homework hour. He had no lesson plan and it was obvious he didn't know very much about the flipped classroom concept. I was very disappointed and ended up dropping the class. *(4)

（1）性价比认可度：是来源于College Prowler的一个数据。如该校的性价比认可度为85%，则意味着该校有85%的学生，认为自己在该校得到的教育值这个学费
（2）个人提升满意度：同样来源于College Prowler。如该校的个人提升满意度是83%，则意味着该校有83%的学生，认为自己在这所学校获得相当的提升
（3）学术体验指数：是College Prowler上的一个评价指标，从A+到C-共9等，等级越高，学术体验越好，C-表示体验最差。因该项指标是将美国所有大学——包括哈佛、耶鲁等著名学校——放在一起比较的，所以绝大多数社区学院该项指标的评分都不会高
（4）三年毕业率：社区学院的学制是两年，正常是两年毕业，但不少学生会因实习、打工等原因选择花三年或更多的时间毕业
（5）转学成功率：是该校转学去其它学校——一般都会是四年制大学——的比例
