Dorm Life No dorms here
Academic Rigor I have learned more at this school in a short amount of time, everyone is so helpful and the teachers are awesome.
Tips for prospective students Do your research, just because you think it is expensive, doesn't mean its not worth it in the long run.

Categories Comments Campus Safety I haven't heard of any safety problems since I've been going to this school, but I also haven't seen any security guards either.
Great for these types of students This school is great if you want to work while going to school like I am. They have night classes from 5:40pm-10:40pm (normally they'll end early) and it works out great if you work during the day. Classes are only Mon-Thurs too, so if you're not the greatest fan of school but still have to do it, here's your school!
Food and Dining They have a student lounge with snack machines, but that's about it.
Dorm Life They don't have dorms available. You must live off campus.
Tips for prospective students Ask about testing out of general ed classes that you might not need. For example, Keyboarding. I didn't need it, but you have to test out before the class starts, and I wasn't aware of that. They made an exception for me because I made a stink about it though. Hehe.
In three sentences They have fantastic teachers that you can easily talk to and get help from on a daily basis! I love how small the classes are so that I can really get help whenever I need it. The flexibility of the staff and schedules is also amazing.

In three sentences A great environment to submerge yourself in learning. With such a great staff, its always a welcoming feeling when walking in, and knowing you will be looked after. Amazing place all together.
