申请点评
- Academic Flexibility: All of the teachers, advisers and department heads are enjoyable to talk to if you need help. I was having schedule problems with work around exam time, and anyone that I needed to talk to was so understanding. Advisers are always willing to help anytime they are on campus and will take how ever long you need to sit down with you. Not only that, but just the environment in general is good to be in.
- Overall Experience: While I gave up the opportunity to attend a four year university, this college has really benefited me greatly as far as preparing me for the transition. The camaraderie of the school makes it unique, where nobody feels like a stranger. If I had the choice to redo WPCC again, I would, perhaps with a different pathway in mind.
- Campus Quality: The overall external look is a beautiful sight, though signs of aging inside the building are apparent. Socially, students are friendly and cohesive.
- Academic Experience: To begin with the negative, registration can be a huge hassle, especially if classes are removed from the schedule without consulting the student first. However, all of that aside, the curriculum is good, professors are friendly and easy to reach, the workload varies depending on the teacher, and there is an abundance of classes. *(4)

(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
