During my stay at Crafton Hills College, I have learned a great deal. Crafton has helped me become the student that I need to be in order to succeed at a 4-year University. The professors are willing to talk and work with each individual student in order to help them succeed as well. Generally the curiculum is well organized in that it builds upon what was previously learned so that it is easy to stay on track and learn all that you can in each class.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I have enjoyed my stay here at Crafton mostly because of the professors that I have had. Most of the lectures are not ones that are boring and will put you to sleep. The professors that I have had are involved with their students and will always try to keep the attention of their students to help them enjoy their time in the class. The periodic joke has always helped me stay focused and enjoy the class enough to take in the information being displayed.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I can't even imagine who could complain about the price of Crafton Hills College. I have had to pay for it all by myself (tuition, books, student fees, etc.) and it hasn't burned a hole in my pocket. I have done 2 years of studying spending less than $2,000 and getting an education that is recognized at many many universities. If I could do it all over again, I would go to Crafton from the get-go, right after high school like I did and pay exactly what I did. In this aspect I have no regrets.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
If you are going to attend Crafton, I could suggest a few things. I would suggest going and seeing your instructor regularly and get to know them. They will generally help you with any homework, projects, or even help you study for the test. The professors generally reward those who go and see them in their offices. Make sure you study for each test, don't try and go in there thinking that all you need is a C or better and you will be fine. Get the best grade that you are capable of getting, this will help you so much more in the future. Make sure you go in and see a counselor. They will help you choose the best classes that you will need for your career. Be sure and get the most sciences that you need for your degree because they will be a lot less expensive and the professors will have more time to personally help you with any questions that you may have.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Crafton is great for all types of students. It is for those who need to go to school just during the night, like some of my friends. It is set up for those who are looking for a cheaper alternative for general education, like me. It has a broad range of courses offered for any intended major. All that you are looking for in your general education is offered at Crafton and I couldn't think of a better community college to go to. However, if you plan on playing sports for school, you should look at Craftons sister school, Valley.
