Review of Kirkwood Community College

from Marion, IA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I have been a student here for 1 year plus a summer semester, and all the classes I have taken have been challenging but I have been able to get through them. In every class I have learned something new and exciting everyday I had class.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I am living at home so I am not living on campus but when I am at school I love it and enjoying being part of the college. The other students and all the staff are welcoming and seem glad to help you with anything.

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

Since Kirkwood is a community college it is definitely affordable. The financial aid is very helpful if you qualify and if not there are many scholarships available for any type of student.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

The biggest tip I can give is to meet with your advisor and to get your classes figured out each semester. The other tip is go to class everyday and if you need help ask,because the professors are willing to help.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Kirkwood is great for any type of student: international, traditional ,returning, part time or full time, adult, etc.
