申请点评

Campus Resources: The school does everything it can to accommodate students with their needs. Their library is large and there are a ton of places to study as well. Even though the school is a Technical school and doesn't have regular sports, they still offer plenty of extra-curricular activities for the students.
Campus Resources: The school offers laptops to purchase or lease through them, which is connected to all of their campus. They also offer network setup for non-leased laptops for a fee, to those students who decide to purchase a laptop elsewhere or already own one.
Academic Experience: There are a ton of choices for different fields of interests. The teachers I worked with previously were some of the best ones I had studied under. I also love the communication that the school provides. They really want to make sure you are comfortable and can work to meet your goals.
Campus Resources: The facilities are all new, so it is awesome. There are no dorms, though, but adequate living arrangements are available in the community.
Campus Resources: I'm a distance student so my experience with the network on campus is limited. However, they have a page of distance education degrees. Their networks must be quite adequate.*(4)
