Review of Harrisburg Area Community College

from Dover, PA

Describe your college in three sentences.

I am really grateful that I made the decision to go to HACC. I really enjoyed all of the professors I had so far. Because of them, I really enjoy participating in class when they ask questions.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

The first thing I learned when I started college, you have to enter with a positive attitude. I took that advice to the heart and it really makes a difference.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The professors expect the best out of every student. They expect for the students to meet deadlines when essays are due.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I live in my own home.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I eat at home but there are fast foods and restaurant's in the area.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

I try to spend as much time with my family. Since it is hot, we tend to go to the park a lot and get in the pool. But on campus, there is a bullentin board and they post discount tickets to Hershey Park.

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

This school is worth every single penny. You have an option to rent your books if you don't want to buy them. If you do buy your books you can return them at the end of the semester and you can get some of your money back.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Since I have a family, I have not attended to any campus activities.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

I feel comfortable. There are camera's, and the parking lots are well lit. Security is always around.
