Review of Pima Community College

from Tucson, AZ

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

So certain classes have more 'learning' being done than others, if you really care about learning vs getting the easy A, you can just check rateyourprofessor.com. Most of the prerequisite teachers understand that they are just a class that most people don't want to take so they teach the basics. While the actual classes like the Respiratory, Computer Graphics, Psychology classes have really nice teachers who teach well.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

It's so different from high school, the campus is nice, the wild animals that some times show up are pretty cool. The food is wonderful for being so cheap. They have a nice Ramada outside where you can just hang out with friends.

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

As someone said before it's $55ish per credit. If you get financial aid AND go full time here, you will still have a lot of money left over after paying classes, and buying books. Free tutoring, free WIFI, free Foosball table (lol)

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Definitely try financial aid, go to an adviser your first semester to help set you up. And join a club, its fun!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Great for students who need the mornings off, and can only go to school at night, who don't want to pay a lot, and want to learn a lot.
