REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThe class sizes are small (about 35 students per class) so its more personalized learning and you can access help from your professor easier. most of the classes I've taken are to fulfill my gen-ed requirements so nothing to in depth but there are many programs to choose from if your going into a specific major.
Mikenzie from Taylorsville, UT
I hate only taken a few classes but the ones I have taken have helped me so much. I have learned so much in such a short time of being there. I know that throughout my time at Salt Lake Community College I will learn so much more.
Kirsty from Cottonwood Heights , UT
Salt Lake Community College is a place of learning...when one has the right attitude. With the wide variety of classes, from the general algebra and basic biology to the complex anatomy and astronomy, students can take classes related to their majors or classes for fun. There are even classes where students can learn how to be master students and go through college with flying colors.
Nonnie from Salt Lake City, UT
The class sizes are average for most classes and the teachers and professors are extremely helpful. The classes seem to have just the right amount of homework, enough to challenge you, but not so much that it is stressful. The curriculum is flexible enough to fit your own personal learning style.
McKenzie from Sandy, UT
I have taken a few general classes along with some fun ones, and I'm rather impressed by how much I have learned! Before enrolling I was kind of expecting mediocre classes and teachers, but they really are great! My teachers have been very helpful and I feel comfortable asking questions when needed. It seems like they really do care about helping students learn, which is a huge factor for me because if the teacher isn't interested, neither am I.
Jennifer from South Jordan, UT
My experience with SLCC has been great so far, even if I am just taking online courses (for now). The classes are flexible, but at the same time strict, and the teachers are willing to help you whenever you ask. I feel really good with it, and I think anybody would feel just as welcome as I do.
Mariana
I have been amazed to realize that even the classes required for general education credits have taught me something. Subjects that I thought of as dry (communications, biology, statistics) have found me integrating class substance into my daily life. There is not a single class that I have taken in my 3 semesters at SLCC that has not inspired me to do some external research and learn more about something brought up by that particular class.
