Here is the thing, if I could go back in time I would have never gone to this college. I did however, find a great job in my field while still in college but I don't give any credit to my school for helping me get the job. All of the legwork was done on my own.

Good things about the school:

  • Small class sizes
  • Not as much pressure
  • Get to know teachers easily
  • Bad things about the school:

  • Never any parking, people in the parking lot drive like maniacs.
  • Registering for classes is a nightmare.
  • The school is actually an old elementary/middle school and you can tell!
  • There are sometimes not enough computers in the library for everyone to use.
  • I would say 50% of the students are lazy and still pass which is not okay.
  • The worst thing of all… the school is so small that there are never enough classes available each semester. Meaning that the classes you need to graduate as never available! Once you're in your last two years it becomes a nightmare.
  • Responses
    responseParking problems are agreeable, and they should expand the parking lot. Registering for classes has not been a problem for myself whatsoever. You can make your schedule in advance and just get things signed. The only times you get rejected or have trouble registering is if you have failed a class and need to make it up, or if you have not finished payment for the semester you are currently in. Otherwise, if you follow the given degree outlines and pass everything accordingly, there is no such problems. It would also be inaccurate to say that many of the lazy students pass: The brighter ones do, yes, but the lazy ones that need to work harder do not, or drop the class last minute.
