Review of Washtenaw Community College

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I’ve been taking art classes to build up my portfolio for when I transfer and the art teachers here are phenomenal. Many of them are also employed at more expensive, “brand name” colleges like Eastern or U of M, so it’s like getting the same teaching experience for a couple thousand dollars less.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

The people are fun and the classes are great. You'll have a huge variety of classmates, and professors.

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

you pay around 2500 a semester for 12 credits and books, and they have tons of financial aid. totally worth it.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

If you're still in high school apply for their scholarship, you won't regret it, I got a full ride. It is only a 2 year college, but many of their credits transfer. Of the 7 professors I had my first year, 6 were amazing, one was a bit of a rambler, but he was a fluke and isn't teaching anymore as far as I understand. You can prevent this kind of experience by using one of those 'rate my professor sites before you fully commit to a class.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

transfer students, art students looking to build their portfolios and learn the basics.
