REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingClark State is truly a college that has your best interest in mind. They make sure they are advising you to take the right classes in order to graduate on time, they have many different majors, and they try to make a schedule that best fits your needs. Clark State has truly been a life changer for me.
Amanda from Beavercreek, OH
The teachers here really care about how much students learn. One class that I had trouble with was Chemistry. The teacher not only met with me after school, but also video tutored me on a school funded program and set up a group study day for the entire class. The courses are not as challenging as a four year institution, but each student will learn almost as much as if they had gone to a four year college.
Jennifer from Springfield, OH
Excellent Student Services for all students. A great diversity of degree programs with superior crossover relationships with a multitude of colleges. A large number of national and local internship opportunities.
William from Xenia, OH
What I like most about Clark State is that the classes are small. When you need extra help you can get one on one time with your professor. The professors do very well teaching.
