Community College of Philadelphia is a great stepping stone for students who know that they want to go somewhere in life. The staff there is extremely helpful and teachers are supportive. I could not have picked a better school to start off as a freshman.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I recommend that all students stay on top of deadlines. Financial aid deadlines are the hardest to come by because those are set in stone and could knock you back an entire semester if you don't meet them. Although the professors have some leeway in drastic situations, coming to college really shows you that you have to be an adult and handle things like assignments on time.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
This school has the best education for it to just be a community college. The dental and medical programs are better than most of the programs at more expensive schools. I definitely feel like I am getting the most for my money.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
There is no dorm on Community College of Philadelphia's campus.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food in the cafe is convenient by catering to those who love to pig out and to those who eat healthy. There is always an abundance of food and the entrees are always hot and ready.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
For fun and hobbies, most of the students go to the gym after classes for basketball, tennis or to simply workout. It's a great and postive enviornment.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
The thing I like the most about CCP is that I always have a quiet place to study. The computer labs are free and so is the printing so when I'm there studying online and need to print out something for home, there is never an issue. This is the main reason I am doing so well in my classes.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
There are no unusual traditions or locations on campus that I know of. But hey, I haven't met everyone there yet that could show me so, who knows?
Which types of students will excel at your college?
The music club is great for the students who are unafraid to show their talents. I'm so impressed with what my peers have learned in just one semester at CCP. Also, the work study program is beneficial to students who need to have a convenient job because the hours start right after their classes so that they can have school, make money and finally go home.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
The activities at CCP are beneficial to the students well being. The workshops helped there instill positive messages in the students as well as giving us something to do to keep us out of trouble during our down time.

There is not a Greet Life at CCP.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
There is security throughout the entire building at all times. They check identification to ensure that trespassers are not on campus. They also make sure that there are machines that can swipe ID cards for the convenience of the students. I always feel safe.
