I am a former student of Central Pennsylvania College for one year, before I decided to leave this school. Some pros but mostly cons. Firstly, the teachers here are good, and try to help students. Majority, of teachers will be helpful, and help students. They have a quartar system semester, which is good if you want to graduate early. Also a dress code, where you will be required to Dress-up in a suit & tie. Most of the Faculty/Academic staff is useless, rude and arrogant. Avoid them. Many students I've seen had problems with their refunds. Dorm life can be terrible, if you do not get along well with your room mates and mostly - people I've seen at CPC, have always had issues with room mates. Social life is pretty bad here, nothing to do in campus or nearby area, apart from sitting in their cafe, and sipping coffee. Students here, are neutral, but you will also see lots of shady, wannabes characters etc around here. Girls can be charming here. Also - There is no diversity at this school, students are mostly, from other parts of Pennsylvania - forget states. Sadly, No proper system or facility for International Students. So if your a International student do not come here. I had no problems with safety, at this school as long as I was there, they have security on duty, but this school at night, doesn't seem like its a safe place. There is a mart, and gym 5-10 mins, walk from the school. The school has a good philological approach towards its manifesto - but sadly, I do not think it is being followed to the fullest, only see CPC as a neutral small school with lots of issues.

This college is garbage from the deans to the president Milano to the food to the students... Most of the student here are black and rude and jus don't care about anything but smoking. I came here after graduating high school and they told me I could graduate in 3 years( lies) because you need to take 4 classes a term to graduate in 3 years but they don't tell you that your fasfa doesn't pay for your 4th class so your stuck with 3 a term and graduate in 4 years .this college has the dumbest security and stop all the fun and I'm not just talking about parties , I mean If your playing basketball or anything they just stop you and right you up. I started in summer of 2012 and and left after the winter term of 2013 cause I couldn't take it nomore and I'm transferring to temple university. It's a garbage school and I can't stand it, I started with 4 roommates in the dorms ( including myself) and we all left... One roommate left to kutztown, the other to Millersville and I went to temple n the 4th just dropped out... Waste of money and the area is racist... This college should just change it's motto from" you can, you will" to " you can, you will transfer"
