CCGA is an excellent college with still even greater potential. They are growing by leaps and bounds, but still have the local community focus. They are service oriented and have a wide variety of students from first timers to non-traditional.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Some programs are new and are still growing and changing, but for me it's exciting to be a part of that. If you would enjoy being part of a small but growing college, then CCGA is for you.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Dedication is key and you have to put the time in to reap the rewards of obtaining a college education. The teachers are excellent - at least the ones I have been fortunate to have - but you have to be responsible enough to spend the time independently studying to truly learn the material and succeed. Some may say the teachers are tough, and while that may be true, they are always available to help and want to see you succeed.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I live off campus so cannot comment on dorm life. I can say I know that on campus living was new as of the 2011-2012 school year so I'm sure it would be exciting to be among the first to live in the new residence hall.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The dining hall is EXCELLENT. I attended college back in 1999-2003 and the food then doesn't even hold a candle to what CCGA offers. The food is really good and the set up is amazing. It's all you can eat, open buffet style and you have 4 different areas to choose 4 different meals from plus a complete salad bar. Dining is new this year at CCGA and they have done an excellent job.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
You are about 15 minutes from the beaches on St Simons Island and Jekyll Island... need I say more?
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Excellent value here. CCGA is one of the fastest growing schools in the state but it is still very affordable to attend. You will find top notch teachers and education opportunities at a price that won't break the bank.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
I'm a non-traditional student and the fact that CCGA has evening and on-line classes meant a lot my first year attending. I am starting the nursing program in the fall so it will be a bit more regimented then but they really have class schedules you can work with for your benefit.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Campus Safety is excellent. They have call boxes set up throughout the parking lots that have blue lights at night. They have a dedicated number you can call anytime and an officer always has that phone with them incase you need them. I have always felt very safe on campus.
