REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingI just finished my first semester and I have learned a lot in just 12 weeks. From the beginning to the end you get everything done on time without any problem. The professors are very helpful and teach you everything you need to know within your course, which at times relate to the real world.

I have got to say, i didn't know what to expect. I've heard a lot of bad things about community colleges. they were all wrong all of my professors have been great and I have learned important life lessons.
Michael Lam , Brooklyn NY
Kingsborough isn't the typical community college you hear about. Things are laid back here but the proffesors are always knowledgeable about the subjects they teach. At least mine have been.
