Being the oldest out of four and just graduating from high school, I have received a lot of help on my financial aid, payment for my classes, where I can get my books, and I have been welcomed into the Women's' Soccer League. Everyone who works at CCC are all very friendly people, and will help out anyone who needs help.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Keep those grades up high, and don't worry about starting the next chapter in life. And don't over work yourself, there is financial help, and you don't have to pay off the loan until a couple years after you've graduated Cayuga Community College.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
You are expected to work hard in College, and like I said before keep those grades up. You're the one paying for these classes, so make the most of them, and don't get caught behind. You're invited to ask all of your questions to the professor, and you are given their email address so you can contact the teacher if an issue pops up. Not only the teachers will help, but the students are there for you, and the coaches, and other staff members at Cayuga will help anyone with a question.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
CCC does not have any dorms this year, but I heard through the grape-vine that they are planning on having dorms for next year. Now even-though there are no dorms, there is a housing plan; Lattimore Hall.But I know several students have decided to commute.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
CCC is surrounded by several stores and fast food places. If you'd like to stay in the school, there's a small cafeteria that is available. Or if you would like a salad, you can go to Walgreen's or Walmart. If you need something on the go, there's a Burger King, McDonald's, Wendy's, or Arby's. If you would like to sit down and enjoy yourself Denny's, and Hong Kong are ready to serve you. Trust me, there's much more that the city of Auburn has to offer, I've only listed a small portion of places to eat.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Like I said before, CCC is in Auburn, and there are several places to go. You can go to Hoops Park and enjoy a walk, or visit the playground that's right next to Hoops Park. Or if you want to enjoy a movie, head on over to the Movieplex right on Grant Ave. And if that's not good enough for you, go and shop your heart out at the Finger lakes Mall, and go roller skating (behind the McDonald's before the Finger lakes Mall), at Reva Roller Dome.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Now the campus is always fun and interesting because you're always running into someone that you know, and if you're not impressed with the people, then start walking into town (since the price of gas is always increasing). Everything is close by, and you don't really need a ride from places.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
People from outside of the New York State region are more than welcomed into the community, and interns from other countries are greeted with open arms and treated like family while attending Cayuga.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Cayuga Community College has a lot to offer, and they are increasing their extra-curricular activities. I stated before that I am planning on playing for CCC on their Women's Soccer League; they have several sports for several athletes.
Now if you're not interested in sports there's College Chorus, Harlequin Productions (Theatre), WDWN (WIN-89 FM) Radio, Cayuga Collegian (Newspaper), Student Government Organization (SGO), or Student Activities Board (Comedians; Musicians; Annual Holiday Festival Craft Fair; and Cultural and performing arts program with performances by noted artists and groups). And if none of those clubs appeal to you, create your own club! Just be sure to run it through with the Student Activities Office.
