I love ACC. I used to look down upon the school when I was in high school. I thought it was a "stupid" school, or for people who weren't that smart. I attended Appalachian State right out of high school and hated it. Everyone was TOO laid back, but class was hard. Walking up and down the mountains to get to and from class was not fun, and it rains a lot in the fall there. I had a senior dorm, apartment style, which is the only thing I miss there. And yeah, it was pretty. Life went on and then I got married and had kids. It was time to go back to school and ACC seemed appealing. It is way more than I expected. Teahers are very nice and approachable and encourage student tips and advice, and anything we really want to say we can. They don't hold back there. Everything is plain and simple, in black and white...and I don't mean racism either (Lectures). I see NONE of that anywhere. Online classes are wonderful. Campus classes are great. Learning and peer collaborations are encouraged. You learn much more at ACC with so much teacher availability and encouragement. Everyone encourages success, and I have not seen any cheating. ACC is not for stupid people and is not a stupid school. It is awesome and I would totally recommend it, especially for those looking to go back to school. It is more for adults, and I like it that way. This is no party school. Everyone is really mature, but friendly. Teachers are there for the students. Go to ACC for your first two years and you won't be disappointed. They are also involved in a new program called C-Step to help those who need financial assistance but make a 3.0 or better and receive their degree in 5 semesters. C-Step is a program to help ACC grads attend UNC-CH, and UNC will help provide funding for you once you are attend.

NC state is a great experience because of the wide variety of opportunities that students can take advantage all of which lead towards growing as a person. Because there are a large number of students one gains a greater perspective on diversity while at the same time has the opportunity to find many friends with similar interests. I have had many teachers which take the time to socailize with students outside of the classrom which makes the learning process more personable and makes the students feel more a part of the environment.

I felt very well prepared to enter the field of nursing upon my graduation from ACC. My instructors were helpful and caring, and the administration was also top-notch. Of course, like any other education experience, you will get out of ACC what you put into it. If you are highly motivated and willing to work, you will receive more than adequate preparation for entry into your chosen field. Of course, I can only speak for the nursing curriculum, but I would recommend the program (and have recommended the program) to anyone interested in pursing this field of study.

I honestly cannot say that my experience at Peace has been lovely. The school is TINY. I come from a big city, but small school. Logically, I figured Peace would be perfect. However, Raleigh is not elegant and danty. It has the bars, the other colleges, and the dirty city look. I came to college to be educated and leave with a degree to enable me to make it in the world. I feel that my high school was harder than Peace.

Though my experience has not been good at Peace, I would recommend it to girls from the eastern portion of North Carolina. Girls that are close to their families and have serious boyfriends tend to thrive here. Most of my friends love it. This is a suitcase college, so out-of-state students BEWARE. It looks like judgment day on the weekends. The campus is beautiful, but less than an acre. If you do not mind a lot of estrogen, southern accents, and liberal professors with caring hearts, Peace is the place for you!
