    You can't beat the cost. Remember if you take a class at another area college through GPACU, you will pay the SMCC price for your tuition (and sometimes a small fee). In my case, this meant taking private college courses for a tenth of the price it would cost at that school!

    I would say so. The education is great and the professors are good quality. Wish there were more things to do on campus, but I think it's a personal issue. Every person will have a different opinion based on their interests.

    The professors here are amazing! Most of them are part time at SMCC and part time at other institutions, so we get the same quality of education as private system students do, at a community college price.
