DO NOT COME HERE. All these reviews are accurate, this school is a huge mess.
I transferred from a small university and arrived during the Spring semester.I was placed in Edgewood housing, the first night there the drinking and drug use was unbelievable. While moving in not one person was friendly and there was coffee spilled on the floor I had to walk around while moving heavy boxes. It was never cleaned up. The bathrooms are terrible, there was a girl who puked and it wasn't cleaned up for days. I ended up moving out to and off of campus, I now commute. Parking is also incredibly miserable.

Teachers are terrible at responding to emails, TERRIBLE at using the online campusweb system. Needless to say the good teachers are few and far between. My weakness is math, the math program is so terrible and even the easiest math class has a teacher who stands at the board, does out an equasion, and then does not say a word to explain his work. If you want to get the most of an education, do not come here. Save your money and go to a better school. Drugs and drinking are incredibly common. Had a girl show up drunk to class twice and has yet to be removed even after the teacher has become aware of her "situation." Absolutely terrible school, too much drug use, too little security.

This is a horrible school. The tuition is way too high. You will not get a quality education here. Most of the students have attitudes and are not friendly.

I do not recommend this college for others. Just focusing on the actual education and not the many side issues/problems first. The professors are horrible. There is no originality or inspiration. If you are looking to really learn something then avoid this school. The reality is that they are all corporate butt kissers only concerned with their own standing. I learned more in one semester at CUNY than 3 years at FPC. This school is not worth its huge price. The whole school has this "liberal image' however you will soon learn they are all phoneys and hypocrites. These are the most selfish and uncaring people I have ever come across yet they put this "liberal" image on and it is quite disgusting. As for all the side issues such as the Nazi Police and them trying to squeeze every last dollar out of you yes that is true and another huge reason to avoid this place like the plague. I could go on and on however to sum it up I regret having ever attended this hellhole however I have rebounded in my life and have learned a lot of lessons the hard way.
