Learning
has always been relatively easy for me, I started college
my senior year by attending classes at a local community
college. Compared to this community college CCU was great. There
were plenty of faculty members who were extremely helpful. Many
of the students were very friendly and I'm glad I
had the opportunity to meet them. Now, here's the
real issue with Coastal, they do not prepare you for
the real world. Getting a job is extremely difficult once
you graduate, even with experience, because this is not a
well known or reputable school. Even graduating with honors, with
research experience, extra curricular activities, having an on campus job
in a Learning Assistance Center as a tutor for 3
years...this is NOT good enough to get a job in
your field. Planning on going to Graduate School? Expect to
pay for every dime of it. You won't be earning
a fellowship because attending Coastal isn't impressive to Graduate Schools.
**Get involved in a program (while in school) that will
give you a guaranteed job after you graduate.**
Also, good
luck scheduling your classes to graduate on time! If you
can get into the honors program, DO IT. It allows
you to schedule your classes earlier than most students and
you'll actually be able to get into classes.
