Review of Community College of Philadelphia

from Philadelphia, PA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I have so far attended 4 semesters at the Northeast Regional Center Campus (more commonly referred to as NERC) . Overall, I say this is a great college for those wishing to save a lot of money. Most of the teachers are phenomenal, and I have leanred quite a bit. Like any school, t\it has its flaws . Some teachers are a problem but they are few. Dealing with the adminastrative people downtown is a nightmare. Although, you may still get inconvienced, the staff at NERC are much more willing to help and nicer.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I like the variety of the student body. I've met people of all ages and backgrounds. Working people, stay at home moms, people my own age in similar boats, people trying to get ahead in their careers, etc etc etc. It truly is a melting pot and I love it.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Cheapest school around, but that doesn't mean it isn't wonderful. They are making more and more renovations, additions etc. each year. I am confident in the amount of knowledge I received and the atmosphere I received it in.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Check the professor ratings websites to know what you're getting into. Make sure your financial aid is accounted for before registration. If you owe ANY fees, they will DROP your classes in 24 hours.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

everyone!
