Cape Fear Community College deserves top marks for its online classes. From start to finish, the experience was seamless. The instructors were knowledgeable and always available to help. The curriculum was well-structured and engaging, making it easy to stay on track. The flexibility of the online format allowed me to effortlessly balance my studies with my personal and professional commitments. Overall, it was a top-tier educational experience. I highly recommend it!
I’m an early college student, so I’m technically still in high school but take all my classes at cape fear. I can’t speak on things like housing, food, and tuition. But from what I have experienced, I really like the community college, it has plenty of resources/degrees for different fields of study. I value my education here. However it can be slightly limiting… there are plenty of programs available but only a few can go majorly in depth with its education. I can still cover a lot of my general education to transfer to a career specific school though.
Honestly starting my first year here, I have to say it's really fun. I always say that it's like highschool, but with your freedom and education that actually teaches you something. I'm at the downtown campus and there are great facilities, food trucks every other day, and a fantastic surrounding area. Parking isn't confusing and the student body is very diverse. May want to do investigating before you take some teachers classes, because like any school there are bad teachers you have to look out for, but other than that it's great.
