I've definitely learned a bunch here at Suffolk County Community College. A majority of the professors I've had so far have been extraordinarily helpful and for me went the extra mile to help in any way possible. Don't get me wrong, there are a few professors that were difficult to deal with and there were moments where I just wanted to get up and walk out. But as a sum, the professors here really do want their students to succeed.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I've had no complaints so far. The students are relatively friendly or they keep to themselves. It's a nice college vibe when you step onto campus: random faces bustling about, the open air as you walk to your next class, or the subtle silence of the Huntington Library. It's a great academic environment.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Compared to other colleges, Suffolk offers a reasonably affordable tuition rate. If you apply for financial aid or scholarships you should be relatively fine. The books are affordable and any smart shopper or a person with a well-defined budget can attend here and end up with some spare cash to keep themselves entertained. Overall, you're paying for a great education so study hard and make use of your money.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Just because Suffolk is a 2-year college doesn't mean that it should be taken lightly. Come to class ready to learn and be respectful to your professors because they ultimately control your grade. If you put your fair share of effort into what you do and your professor sees that they'll pull some strings to help you through. Many successful individuals started here at Suffolk and went on to greater things.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Ambitious, intelligent, hard-working, diligent, respectful, responsible, and all those other positive qualities of a great student. Good luck!
