Read Syllabi's, show up at least 5 minutes early, sit in the front, and use the resources available.

I have had some very challenging teachers at State Fair. They push me to be original in my writings, but do not push me to where I do not think I am able to not do/finish homework or projects.

At the Lake of the Ozark campus, there is not, yet, many activities, but there are great, interesting people to get to know.

State Fair Community College is a great place to start if you want or need an associates. It is very inexpensive, but only in the cost. State Fair is a fantastic place to begin higher education.

The school itself is in an unusual location; it is at what used to be a mall. The way of the building and the interior design is less intimidating than any other college. It makes people feel comfortable when walking in and talking to people.

State Fair would be the perfect place for new students who are not sure of what field they should enter, and who do not want to spend too much to figure it out. It is also a great place for someone seeking an associates.

The campus is very safe and welcoming, and in a clean environment with friendly people willing to help a stranger.

I have learned a lot. The basic education classes are top notch. I love the Agriculture department. I spend a lot of time working in the greenhouse. That is definitely my passion.

Absolutely I love SFCC. It is a great community college and we are very fortunate to have it. I believe it is one of the best schools around. People come from other states to attend.

I definitely feel you get the best bang for the buck there. I checked at a couple other colleges and they are at least triple the cost.

If you go into the Ag/Hort make sure and speak to the counselors in that department. If you speak to a counselor at the main campus they will lead you astray. You need to take certain classes at certain times. I didn't do that and it has hurt.

It is great for all types but, I am a non-traditional student and find that there are several of those going. That was a great find for me because I felt so out of place. I have made some life long friends at school. Just cuz I'm older....don't mean I not still fun!!!It is NEVER to late to learn!

Being a two year college, I was afraid that the courses wouldn't be challenging enough to prepare me for my future career or when I decided to transfer to a four year university. I have learned that some of their courses are challenging and gave me the proper education I needed. One course I really enjoyed was General Chemistry with Lab. The Instructor, Jack Hayes, made the class and the multiple labs interesting. His teaching methods kept you involved and active. His methods have helped me work harder and accomplish more in my other classes. There are a wide variety of courses to choose from no matter what your major is. The instructor there are willing to give you one on one time if you are struggling with a course, have questions about your career or future, or just want to talk.

This college has many activities going on. They often have a movie night for new releases and Texas Holden Tournament to when great prizes. They only have men’s and women’s basket ball as a sport which is a downfall but they regularly have activities such as flag football and ping pong which the college students compete against each other. You could spend time in the Commons room in the arts building hanging out with friends or you could just relax by their pond.

If you are struggling with finacial needs, this is a good college to attend. It offers many scholarship opportunities. If you are a theatre major, you can try out obtain a theatre scholarship which will pay for you school. This school also excepts A+ and you can obtain pell grants through the state to pay for you college.

If you are interested in attending college but have not decided on a degree, this is a good college to attend due to their multiple options. The courses encourages you work word hard and stay dedicated at school.

This school is great for students who are having financiall problems. Those who live close to the school can easily drive there and don't have to worry about staying in the dorms they offer. If you are a returning student, this college will also be a good choice of school.

State Fair Community College is providing me with many opportunities to challenge myself academically. It also provides the algebra curriculum in graduated steps to better serve each students individual needs; they offer algebra classes from basic math all the way to college algebra. State Fair also has several higher level math classes for those who want to challenge themselves further or for those who need to fulfill a degree requirement. There is much to be said about their biological science classes also. I have found the teachers to be very friendly while also providing sufficient course rigor. I am also involved in a student success program called TRiO. Through TRiO I have been able to receive free, personal tutoring when needed and I also have the opportunity to share my knowledge with other by becoming a tutor or mentor. The only downfall I have found in the schools academics thus far is the chemistry department. Unlike most other universities the chemistry classes have no formal lecture time, which I found made it very difficult to learn new material.

I have greatly enjoyed my time at State Fair Community College. There are many clubs that students can utilize to make the most of their college experience. I am involved in our school's local Phi Theta Kappa chapter. Phi Theta Kappa is an international honor society that provides members with many opportunities and I feel that all new students should strive to reach the academic standards to gain acceptance into this organization.

State Fair Community College is a great value. The price of tuition is very cheap but provides great academics and plenty of ways to get involved on campus.

- sit in the front row
- get involved on campus
- utilize the free tutoring lab!

- undecided majors
- nursing majors
- students who want to save money by getting the general education courses for their degree at State Fair's great price
- those who may not have done great in high school but want another chance to prove themselves and get into a university

wide range of classes offered
excellent instructors
great education at a lower cost

the staff and instructors are friendly and always happy to help. if you are willing to communicate with them you will find this out.

just the right amount of rigor.

get great knowledge and education for a lower cost than going to a bigger university

their online classes are great for those who have difficult schedules and find it hard to attend traditional classes. you will get just as much knowledge if not more from the online classes by working a lot closer with the other students in the class than in a traditional class.

a pretty small campus, so it appears to be safer. there haven't been too many incidents since i've attended, and if there is an incident the staff and faculty is quick to spread the word to help enforce the safety.

State Fair Community College in my opinion has lower expectations of students. There are a few excellent instructors which you can learn alot from. Heather Holye, an English instructor, is the best teacher on campus. She made English fun and was very informative, creative, and helpful. Definetly take a class she teaches, it will definetly be worth it. There are other instructors in which you will see that you will have to teach the class to your self with no help from the teacher. State Fair provides a tutors lab and amazingly they actually know what they are doing and I highly recommend you stop by there.

What I like most about State Fair is the location. Sedalia is a pretty neat town with alot of friendly and helpful people. My family lives a few minutes away so I can live at home. :) If you ever need help or advice there are plenty of people you can talk to on campus.

State Fair accepts scholarships and offers alot of their own. Apply for FAFSA and you just might qualify for federal aid. Sport games are free to the students, come out to support. Come watch theathre shows, teachers usually offer extra credit and its free to students.

Meet new people, join organizations, study hard! There are alot of fun activities always going on like organized dodgeball and movie nights.

Basketball Players- Only sport offered here.
There is a Nursing program here.
Who want to get an education and live in a rural setting.
For those who messed up in high school and want to make it up!

It is a small, close-knit college. It should be easy to find my classes. I will enjoy getting to use the gym and library for free.

You will probably enjoy this school!!

I can't yet say, but I've heard good things.

No dorms.

There are plenty of restaurants in Sedalia and I believe there is also a food plan you can sign up for.

There's plenty of shopping to be done as well as on-campus events and sports!

State Fair Community College is a wonderful college. I am currently taking online courses and the teachers are caring and engaging. I am very happy to have started my college career at State Fair Community College.

If you are taking online courses reach out to your classmates. They can become a valuable learning assets. Also never be afraid to email a teacher. They are here to help you achieve your goals.

Some classes are easier than others. Be sure to challenge yourself.

I have only eaten in the cafeteria once but the food was amazing!

State Fair Community College is a great place to start your continuation of higher education. They provide many opportunities to succeed through academic tutoring or other programs, the curriculum, and great professors that are willing to help. It is a encouraging, friendly environment that makes feel right at home.

State Fair is a great school to start and get your general education credit out of the way while trying figure out what to major later on down the road.

The academics are pretty rigorous, but not too hard, as most of the classes are the lower level classes that transfer for Bachelor's. Always try your best and if you have troubles there is on-campus tutoring and also the professors are willing to help anyway they can to help succeed.

This school provides the most bang for your buck with: In-district residents- $95 per credit hour; Missouri residents- $127 per credit hour; Out-of-state residents- $190 per credit hour; International residents- $222 per credit hour.

There is always something to do, whether if it is attending an athletic event or taking evening personal enrichment courses. There are many excellent theater and euphonious music productions throughout the semesters. Try participating in special clubs, such as anime or literature club, or student government.

I find State Fair to be a very affordable college. I have had a great experience so far. I would definitely recommend this college to anyone that would like to go to a great affordable college.

I would start your admissions process early just to make sure that everything goes by smoothly.

I have really enjoyed being in this college. I also feel that they are not trying to put me in debt unlike other colleges. It is very affordable and a great experience.

I personally don't live in the dorms but my friends do. They always tell me that it's a great place to stay.

I have never had an issue with their food. I always find it delicious and appetizing.

The school always has many activities planned that are a blast. There are also many stores to shop at in the area. The area also has a movie theater and many fun places to go!
