Review of Cayuga County Community College

from Auburn, NY

Describe your college in three sentences.

Cayuga was a great way to transition into college life without being over whelmed. It had the normal atmosphere of college life but you could still live at home. It was an easy place to adjust to because everyone is very welcoming.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Make sure you do not go in with an exception of thinking its going to be like all the other colleges I am thinking about going to. Cayuga is a college life atmosphere but it does not have the demanding responsibilities that a normal college will have. I love Cayuga because I feel I am completely ready to jump into the whirl wind of a four year college.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

It does not have the demanding Academics that a year college has but it has the difficulty classes that do give students the challenge they will experience when or if they transfer. Cayuga is an easier school then a four year school but it still tests and demands exellence from their students. I feel it is a good in between school before a student transfers to a four year school and is coming right out of high school or took a few years off from school in general.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I personally did not live in a dorm because I lived at home with my parents. It was a great experience to live at home but I also heard all the fun and memorial moments from my friends that lived in dorms. I heard it is easier to live in a dorm because you can car pool, share rent, and food.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I the food is amazing in the cafeteria. It was a little pricey but it was good quality food. Next year a subway is being put in so maybe the price will not be so bad. I loved the food but I did not always want to spend as much as I did.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

The fun things you can do at school are hang out with friends, play video games, play pool, play ping pong, and sports. Outside of school Auburn has threaters, drive-ins, a mall, stores, and parks. Auburn is a small adoriable little community that has enough stuff to keep you and your friends busy for an afternoon on the town.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Some of the interesting locations are the nature trail or the gym. I love both those places because they are were I love to be the most. They have a lot of interesting traditions, locations, and people.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

It is very open to any kind of student. I had friends that believed in all different points of view. Some were gay or lesbian, others were from Ireland or England, and some were just from a different part of America. No matter where you come from or who you like it is all accepted at Cayuga.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are a lot of clubs and activities to gain and invest in. A few are sports, drama team, radio station clubs, gay, straight alliance club, and many more. I played soccer there and it was very benifical and a lot of fun.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There was no greek life at Cayuga. It is a small community college. It is a very nice school but also very small.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

The campus safety was very important to the Cayuga Community College staff. They had policemen walking the halls during and after school hours. I felt extremely safe while I attended Cayuga Community College.
