What Students Are Saying
The college I go to is very small which means that you have more one on one with the instructors. This school also have alot of student activities for example Spring Fling the school give out free food, a washable tattoo and other cool stuff. USCL offers students a rich environment to learn in. It's easier to learn here than those big over sized colleges.
