Columbus State Community College - Delaware, Ohio

Parking is nice, plenty of room to park. Clean facility. Always have staff making sure the campus is clean and tidy, inside and outside. Handicap accessible and parking. Bathrooms are clean (some cobwebs by the door - but who really notices that). Clean hallways, saw at least 2 or 3 people with carts either bringing stuff into the staff area or they were cleaning. They have a computer lab here with friendly IT personnel. Computer lab is clean, with very comfy chairs if you need to stay and work on something. They have a 'Cyber Cafe' where they have energy drinks, coffee, snacks, food, gum, medicine (Advil, (insert allergy medicine or feminine products)). Friendly and helpful professors.

TLDR; CSCC is really clean, have food, comfy seats in their computer lab, and friendly professors and stuff.

I made the Dean’s list and had a 4.0 but they took my financial because I didn’t preform well enough. My classes are online so I’m basically teaching myself and the professors, save a few, are rude and unhelpful.

Great campus, I took General Chemistry here with dr.Bruce, then transferred to the University of Toledo where I graduated in Medical Laboratory Science in 2023. Finding a job after I graduated was a challenge for me and I moved to Indiana.

Marcia was very accommodating and helped with a last minute meeting which went smoothly. Excellent, well kept spaces complete with a small market with snacks and drinks for visitors.

Amazing school!! The education I received there changed my life. I highly recommend it to anyone who is nervous to go back to school, the staff will literally walk you through the entire process. I also met some life long friends, and the campus is very clean and safe.

Academic advisors are very difficult to get ahold of and when you one gets ahold of them they are disrespectful. They tell you to just email them your problem which are then returned with an automatic email about where to find things. You'll get this email even if it has the things you didnt ask for. The advisors also tell you if you do meet them that you are wasting their time with questions about the direction of your academic career.

The building is beautiful. The staff was very helpful. Really happy with the entire process so far.

I have not gone to this school, but several of my friends have. For each and every one of them, it was a terrible experience. They all started thinking they could get two-year degrees, and six years later not one of them has one.

Here is a smattering of the things they have experienced:

- A professor who canceled a class in order to watch a football game, and for any other reason he wanted - in the end the every-other-week class met only three times during the entire semester
- Tests that cover things never discussed either in class or in textbooks
- Bureaucratic nightmares regarding transcripts, unclear requirements for graduation, being told a class was required and then later finding out it wasn't
- Online classes where the professor logs on once a week and responds to no emails
- The school literally does not provide all of the classes needed to finish the degrees they 'offer', only preliminary classes - the degree must be finished elsewhere, assuming the credits even transfer (good luck)
- Terrible communication both with professors and administrators, and a clear sense that no one there cares about any of the students at all
- Classes that teach basically nothing, for instance an HTML 'class' for which all of the material could have been learned during an hour using google.
- Unclear syllabuses, missing graded items in the final grade, midterms going ungraded and never returned, expensive books that are never used

This is by no means a comprehensive list.

I'm putting up this review to hopefully spare other young, desperate people from what this farce of an institution has done to the people I care about. Yes, the campus looks nice and the tuition rates are low, but you will not get an education here, and no one in the building will care how badly their lies and neglect will screw up your life.
