REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThis is a two year college, but all the courses are exactly what you will find at any other University for getting your prerequisites done. I find that all of the instructors are very well qualified for their positions and have earned their professor titles. That is from the perspective of a student interested in health care, but I am sure that students pursuing technical certificates can say the same thing about their programs.

Definitely apply early for FAFSA and any other scholarships and financial aid. Always talk to an adviser for any questions you may have. Have fun and enjoy everything to the fullest.
Ashley from ID
I think it's a great and friendly community. They have lots of fun activities for students to attend. The college is small enough that there have been lots of opportunities for one on one teaching and learning experiences for me.
