申请点评
- Overall Experience: I love that my school is small enough in student body so that I am not just a number, but it is large enough to offer so many career choices. I have had the privilege of being a student worker/work study in both the administrative department and in the library so I feel that I have learned aspects of those careers as well as my dental assisting program. It’s been a great adventure to go back to school after being a full time, stay-at-home wife and mother.
- Academic Experience: Very intense workload, only two semesters but could easily be made into 4 semesters due to extensive content. The teachers are very knowledgeable in the dental field and bring lots of practical experience to the classroom. The 9 weeks of internships at the end of the program are very costly as no wages are given and two courses are required that total 1,500. I do wish that the internships could be made a part of a semester so as to be more financially friendly. Total number of instructors is 2, student body is now 20 after starting with 30, so student/teacher ratio is great.
- Campus Resources: They are very resourceful at this school. It is easy to get access and we are always welcome to sporting events at our major university.
- Campus Resources: Our computer help desk person is very good and works really well with all students.
- Campus Resources: When you are in the Nursing Program it is very competitive. You need to receive at least an 80% in your classes to move on. It was very hard to receive As in 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了相当的提升
（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
