What Students Are Saying
Thus far, the professors are excellent. There are a lot of support groups for extra help. I needed help with my writing and I was able to get someone to work with me when I write papers.
Zhane from Springfield Gardens, NY
College is much different from public high schools. You can't take the easy way. At Cortland, studying, going to class, and reading the textbooks is required for one to do well. Classes are challenging, but not to the point of failing. If you study and read diligently, and ask the teacher, or tutors for help, they will help you succeed. The teachers at Cortland challenge you, yet they strive for your success, not your failure.

Classes are challenging but worth it!
Saki from Laurelton, NY
You are able to find very difficult courses and professors, but if you put in effort and show up to class, each course can be passed. Some people can get by with little effort, but it is worth it to try hard and receive good grades.

The only problem I personally have are classes in lecture halls. I tend to get distracted easily and find it hard to pay attention.
