    The pricing isn't the cheapest compared to some of the surrounding Community Colleges for other counties, but the quality of education you receive makes up for the pricing! In the end it is still way cheaper to attend than a 4 year University.

    I'm getting a wonderful education. Small classes and attentive professors for a resonal price. I am getting a lot more for what I'm paying.
