Academics

Accounting/Finance.. Have not hit the core classes towards my major, but the interim classes are not too shabby. Definitely do-able.

Being culturally diverse there are many professors from many different backgrounds. This means that there may be some language barriers. I have had four professors in my two years of being here that have been tough to understand but I still came out okay. Having small classrooms helps with this however, because if you can't understand the professor, he/she is more likely to come help you one on one in class. The AEC is also a tool to help but it's pretty hit or miss. They're amazing with helping with papers, but other subjects depends on the tutor you are assigned. The library is also a resource to take advantage of. If you cannot afford books for the semester the library has them for students to check out for an hour. Galileo is part of the library and an easy way to access articles the library has but from the comfort of your laptop. All the computers on campus also have programs that professors require for class that way you don't have to buy them for your own personal computer. There are four computer spaces around campus and a library resource center in A building to take advantage of.

The institution is very small meaning that they have very small class sizes, at east 15-25 students per class. The small class sizes help professors and students to have one-to-one communication opportunities.

Like you'd expect from any college, the work is different and harder than the type of work we students did in High school. But with each student's struggles there are opportunities for advancement, free tutoring programs are in place to help students with their course work.

The institution is focused on learning, meaning students have to really apply themselves to their education.

Your mentors, your advisor, and your professors all work collectively to ensure your academic success.
