    Great for these types of students

    Wayne community college is the best way for students to start their career. The professors care about helping you get through the right obstacles of learning through core classes, or even classes of the degree you intercepted.

    Wayne County Community College District is a good pick if you are starting college, the tuition is fair and you will be able to enroll in classes that you need that will not be expensive. Though WCCCD has plenty of flaws within their system and the administrators are biased, there are a few workers there who care about their students.

    Food and Dining

    The cafeteria on campus at Wayne county community college is sub par and lacking in healthy options, but not very costly. For the student on the go its a perfect mix of fast food and cheap eats.
    Dorm Life

    For community college its expected that you commute and live at home, as community college saves you on cost opposed to going the full 4 years at a university.
    Academic Rigor

    The class work is not too difficult if you keep up with the pace and pay attention during the lectures. I currently work multiple jobs while going full-time and am able to maintain above passing grades. Its definitely doable.
    Tips for prospective students

    Walk in or call the admissions office and ask specific questions, most information isnt found on the website contrary to other college websites. This includes when semesters starts, book pricing, and instructor names.
    In three sentences

    Wayne county community college is a great opportunity in regards of starting a college career. The cost of tuition is manageable, the staff is caring, and the class size is small. Transferring to a 4 year university from Wayne county community college is easy as can be!

    Campus Safety

    On the two campuses I've attended safety has been amazing there's always a security guard in site, especially downtown where you see actual police cars.
    Bang for the buck

    WCCCD is an amazing value my tution for 3-4 classes comes a little over $1,000 per semester. You can use any financial aid to pay for books and even sell some back at the end of the semester.
    What to do for fun

    WCCCD isn't really the kind of school you habg out at, its usuallyfull of older people taking courses later in life.
    Food and Dining

    They have a subway on a few campuses, but I haven't been to all of them so there may be other options.
    Dorm Life

    There are no dorms lol
    Academic Rigor

    I didn't find very many of my general education courses hard at all, maybe I just had good teachers but I finished my first college semester (3 courses) straight from High School with a 4.0. I come from high school as a 3.6 student if that matters.
    Tips for prospective students

    Prospective students should make sure when registering for classes you must take initiative and seek out an adviser especially if you plan to transfer to a 4 year university. They will give you all the checklists you need to ensure you are on the correct path as long as you ask. My adviser went as far as helping me create my schedule for that current semester and then drafting one for the semester after that one. The professors are overall very serious about their jobs, not all are great but a lot are. You can usually find reviews for each of them online.
    In three sentences

    Wayne County Community College is great choice for any student in the metro Detroit area. The school offers many campuses, so no matter where in Detroit you live one of the will be close to you. Also, the credits transfer to a number of major Michigan universities .

    At different campuses there are plays at a certain time of year.
    Food and Dining

    Fortunately, their are chips, candy, and other food students can buy at the school store. Also, every Wayne County Community College campus has Subway for students to enjoy a healthy lunch or breakfast.
    Dorm Life

    Unfortunately, their are not any dorm rooms at Wayne County Community College.
    Academic Rigor

    Its critical to study at least 3 or 4 hours a day to maintain at least a 3.5. Also, plan what days to study and what days to take a break from studying. Furthermore, take a combination of classes. For instance, a person can select College Algebra, Introduction to Business, English 119, and an elective so that won't be a stressful semester.
    Tips for prospective students

    Its important to figure out which degree you are interested in so you won't be wasted time or money. Also, remember to ask academic advisers about what classes transfer over to a University or you can look on the University website.
    In three sentences

    I would rate Wayne County Community College a B+. The reasons for this, because the professors are concerned about the students grades and well being. The worst part about the school is that the Wi-fi is not great in certain parts in the college.

    If you are a dedicated student, it does not matter who is doing the teaching. At this college, you get what you pay for. It's the cheapest around and will give you the tools to teach yourself.

    The teaching body as a whole is very competent and willing to help you. The college itself does not seem to give the teachers the materials necessary to teach at the level the teachers are willing to teach at. Lastly, the office staff or at least the system they use will cause you headaches!

    Overall WCCCD is definitely the college for me and I have already earned two degrees here. I loved Wayne County and I think you will too. The campuses are the perfect size to feel comfortable and not worrying about getting to class late. The class sizes are small so you are able to get that one on one attention from the teachers some students require. It is easily affordable and definitely worth the money.

    From my experiences attendind Wayne County Communty College District I have found the classes and teachers to be very enjoyable. Unfortunately the financial aid department has not been the same. I have found it extremely hard to get any help with going to school but I want to finish as many core classes as I can their because the are more inexpensive.

    Their campus safety is horrible. There is always some officer harassing and bothering the students and out of the 3 or 4 times I went their I never felt safe.
    Clubs and Activities

    I know there is a honor society but I'm not very active on campus. Still not a whole lot to do.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who want to transfer or don't want to work too hard for your grade. Or if your not sure what you want to study yet, you could take your general education requirements.
    Bang for the buck

    The education itself was okay. Wasn't bad but I wouldn't call it Grade A quality.
    What to do for fun

    Not much.
    Food and Dining

    Can't really say. I have not eaten here.
    Dorm Life

    There are no dorms. Most community colleges do not provide dorms so expect to commute.
    Academic Rigor

    It depends on what you take, but overall these courses are not hard. It is a community college so don't expect a really hard curriculum.
    Tips for prospective students

    Me personally, I would suggest you choose another school. I came here as a transfer and I'm going back to my original school. Thought this would be better but its not. Majority of their programs are not accredited and their service is horrendous. I would only suggest you take your pre-req's here if you intend on transferring. I also suggest you take your courses online if you can, then you won't have to deal with the crazy environment that WCCCD provides. The main campus that I attended was the Northwest campus and that campus is unprofessional, rude, and just plain ghetto. I could not bear to be on that campus for more than two minutes. Also, don't expect to receive assistance and you will be their for at least two hours trying to be served for a simple issue since they are extremely disorganized.
    In three sentences

    Their service is deplorable. They are extremely disorganized. You are not going to receive a quality education. Leave and don't bother to attend if you can.

    if you want to go to college but your not ready yet, go to wayne county community college because the financial aid process is not a hassle, the placement tests are quick, and you would be able to start whenever your ready.
    In three sentences

    this is a nice community college. there are people here that care about your success. i also rather attend a community college first before attending a four year college so its the perfect step to take.

    it is extremely affordable! all the classes are much more inexpensive in comparison to four year universities. i actually have free tuition all up until my associates degree.
    What to do for fun

    there is not much of a campus life that is offered other than guest speakers and occasional college tours.
    Food and Dining

    the only on-campus food location is subway, unless you venture out into surrounding areas. the subway is pretty good in terms of health and taste.
    Dorm Life

    there are no dorms for this college.
    Academic Rigor

    all of the courses are the first two years of general studies for an associates degree. the classes seem to be repeats of what i have learned in high school.
    Tips for prospective students

    be conscious of what each course demands and what each professor expects. never hesitate to seek further assistance or guidance because there is always someone in a similar predicament within the vicinity.
    In three sentences

    many professors have the students' best interests at heart and teach according to potential performance. there is a great deal of knowledge to be learned from the content of the lessons and the philosophy of instructors. the staff is down-to-earth in most cases and knows how to relate to the diverse student body.

    wayne county community college is a college where you want to get your associates degree. it is not a place where you would want to go to school for that long. the least amount of time you have to be there is the best.

    Tips for prospective students

    if someone asked me about the school i would inform them to make sure they check to see if the program that they're interested in is accredited, if not they would be waisting their time.
    In three sentences

    from my past experience i would rate wayne county community college as a 10, 10 being the worst. i enrolled in the paralegal program in 2005 and wasn't inform that,that program wasn't accredited by the american bar association. until i had 2 paralegal class left to take. by the school not being accredited mean that if i wanted to go to another school or university none of the class that i took would transfer to the other school. so i've wasted my time. it would have save me some time had i known that in the beginning.
