Not so bright
Well, i just graduated from this college and, i had a good experience. This was my last option school and i was a little embarassed to tell my friends i was going here but after awile this school wasn't so bad as everybody says it is. I know people call this school the 13th grade and that may be true but it is what you make of it. The first semester i didnt take it seriously but then i realized if you want to get anywhere in this world no matter where you are you have to work hard. I managed to raise my gpa and i joined the socoalwork/anthroplogy program and that was the best thing i ever did.

You go to this school to either pass time or raise your gpa. I do recommend this school because other than being cheap the professors are great....some of them, there are hundreds of clubs for everything, eveyones friendly, resourses are there for you to take advantage of and the foods good but alittle expensive.

The only negative stuff about this school is the advisors...they dont know shit lol and the financial lines are a mile long but its worth it. I dont regret going here and i f anybody tells you this school is full of shit tell them to step off because it is a good education, and plus people from top notch schools travel here to take a course they cant afford in thier over priced school, and thats a joke.you get in easy you get out easy thats it.

Nassau Community College is relatively cheap and they give a descent amount of aid, but their financial Aid Office is a joke. The phone lines are busy all day long, the school doesn't have room and board but if your lucky enough they'll charge you for it. Let's not forget they'll give you the run around if you need help with information.

Pros: most of the professors are extremely knowledgeable and capable, especially within the Communications & Psychology Depts (which I've been most exposed to); and some of them even teach in other reputable schools such as Hofstra and Adelphi. Moreover, the price for such above average teaching is close to unparalleled, being as cheap as it is.

Cons: The administration--Fin. Aid, Bursar, Advisement, etc-- is atrocious. There is an automated service that answers every call, prompting appropriate numbers for each purpose of call--however, every single prompt forwards you to a machine that tells you to check the website. To make matters worse, the one prompt that's pressed to reach a rep instead forwards you to a busy signal every time...not even a voicemail.

There is also an $18 charge for paying a tuition bill via credit card online.The website is also not very user friendly; difficult to find what you're looking for.
Education Quality: A, Social Life: F
