There are too many people and enough staff of every kind. Cousnlors do not want to help you register for classes. They are rude about it too. They expect you to do it all on line. But their system sucks and I want though a bunch of trouble because I tryed to register myself on line and it did not work and I had to go through a bunch of hassel to get the class I wanted.

There are usually only three reasons students attend this school. Financial, non-acceptance into university, and/or lack of need for a degree from a four year institution. This school completely represents that statement. If you can work the system and only seek a degree, go to this school. If you would like the slightest hint of an education, stay away. This is a "robot" school. In other words, free thinking is not encouraged. Sad, considering this is an accredited school.

Super Brilliant
Going into AB-Tech I expected the obvious from a local community college: basically meaning nothing special, and probably borderline facilities and marginal availability of programs, services, and student centers such as libraries, career centers, advising staff, etc. To my great surprise, AB-Tech has met or exceeded my expectations of what a community college should be. There are a few things that could be made better about the college but overall it's a good place to start out a college program, or if you're looking for an associate's degree/certification it's a good place to go for that. Tuition is a little high for a community 2-year college, and the bookstore is incredibly expensive (I know, not the college's fault since publishers rip people off basically), but this place offers a lot of good programs that students can benefit from. The only issue I have heard about a few times, but cannot really personally vouch for, is that some of the teaching staff is a little lacking in creativity.
