REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingPeople always say Delgado was easy........WRONGG! Its very tough and challenging but if you put the time into studying, you walk out the class with the grade you deserve and learn alot of information!
Kimberly from Kenner, LA
I haven't taken any classes, only online. The experiences that I had going to the school were horrible, I could never get straight answers on anything.
Heather from River Ridge, LA
I attended both Westbank and City Park locations. Some of the teachers are really great, some should never teach. The classes are NOT that easy. You will study and study hard to pass most classes.
