Jason from Upper Marlboro, MD
I have been attending PGCC for the past few years, and I have truly enjoyed my experience. I take regular and honors courses and sometimes (depending on the professor) the regular course are sometimes more involved.
Britt from PG County, MD
In all my classes so far, the professors really care. If you do you're work and show that them that you are there to learn, they're are their to help you. They are strict, but very fair and reasonable. Not only will the professors help, the college has resources outside of class to get you any additional help you might need. For example, there is a math lab, writing lab, and tutoring center.
Alexis from Upper Marlboro, MD
PGCC is a very diverse atmosphere. You have to be focused and know what you are there to do. Even though it is a community college it is still a place of educational excellence. Your decisions are up to you as to what you gain and gather from this experience. So make the BEST out of it!
Manicia from Lanham, MD
It's is a pretty nice campus for a Community College. The staff is wonderful and they do the best they can to help you. I if I were to rate them from a scale of 1-10 I would give them a 8.5!
Kathy from Laurel, MD
Prince George's Community College is WONDERFUL; it offers its students an affordable tuition, small class sizes, free tutoring and printing services, online classes as well as on campus classes, and is overall an exceptional school. The school has 3 campuses located throughout Maryland and has become technologically advanced and architecturally eye-catching. Diversity is seen throughout the school's population so that no one is singled out.
