What Students Are Saying
i found kishwaukee college a great place for people of all ages to attend. the majority of the teachers i had were very nice and accommodating. it is easy to get around and a great place to start the college experience.
Mia
small classes and friendly teachers contribute a lot to the positive atmosphere of the college. the variety offered varies quite a bit, with some courses like nursing and engineering being quite popular, while others like logic fall by the wayside. all in all it's a pretty good college for its size.
Aaron from Waterman, IL
