    This school is what you make it. If you put in the time to learn how the system works then it can be great. Be careful choosing professors. If you can get that down, you'll have a good time. Parking is a pain on campus, it's been a problem for years with no current sign of improvement. Class size is excellent, usually no more than 30 students. I've enjoyed my time here in the last couple of years.

    It would be 5 stars if the faculty and administrators did their jobs properly.

    Good school. I enjoy going there and have had a lot of great teachers. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for an affordable school to get their gen-eds out of the way.

    I would give zero stars if I could just simply due to the incompetency of the administration and financial aid staff. Numerous times upon my enrollment I had asked about residential tuition fees and what I needed to do to make sure my paperwork was through properly so I was not over charged and had everything set properly for my classes. I have been over charged, the book store has given me a used book that had rips tears and stains all in it that they charged me over $80 dollars for, they failed to get my tuition in on time so my books had to come out of pocket, Any staff member I ask for help or assistance acts as if I am the biggest nuisance to them to HAVE to actually do their job, and I have had to re address countless situations from staff who've told me numerous times "We'll make sure its taken care of don't worry!" This place is a joke for education and any knowledgeable adult trying to better their future will drive the extra time to go to KVCC or another reputable community college that actually cares about its students. This establishment is only out for your money.

    Some professors are good, but most just watch Youtube videos vaguely related to the curriculum. Or just use online software to do the work they're supposed to be doing. Thankfully I don't have to pay for my education otherwise I would be upset.

    This school really sucks. You always get what you pay for. It's somewhere between Alternative HS and an inmate GED program, but with "specialized" classes. I have lost interest and no longer wish to pursue my education. This liberal atmosphere is one of disrespect and slander. If you end up here your future is doomed from an educational standpoint. Go into a trade and work your ass off, you'll get much farther than this institution will push you without a doubt in my mind. Once again, it may be cheap, but they ought to pay you. Not to mention these classes take a month to go through a day's worth of content, will bore the hell out of you if you are smarter than a 5th grader.

    I went to apply for their welding job training program for the fall of 2015, but was told they had openings for the upcoming class. I had the majority of money for class already, but was hoping to find a weekend job before I started. My GF convinced me to go thru with it though, so I was rushed through the application process a week and a half before their job training program started.

    First problem I had with GRCC was that, financial aid took two months to get back with me and, someone failed to enter me into the system correctly, so they had no record of me even taking any classes.

    Second problem was that, their banking service(Nelnet) never charged me for the classes and, even though I brought this up to numerous staff at the school and to Nelnet themselves, nothing was done about it.

    THEN, since "I didn't pay" for my tuition, I wasn't supposed to get the certificate of completion for the course and, yet I still freaking got it!!!!

    Not only that, but it was required that I waste my time going to hour long "lessons" from Mi Works staff. That's 18 hours of practice time that I lost to hear about some BS information that I either knew, didn't care about, or affected me in any way.

    It's taken them a year to do anything, even though I've told them NUMEROUS TIMES about the issues and, instead of contacting me to resolve the issue, they sent the due tuition straight to collections!

    So I say screw GRCC, go somewhere else!

    A proper community college. Inexpensive tuition means a good value for the classes you get. Don't expect the level of a four-year institution, but they do well with the resources they have.

    Anne Sherman is cool and almost all of my professors really seemed to CARE and want me to succeed. i honestly think i only had 2 professors the whole time i was here who were no good. for the most part if you show respect and try hard your professors here will go above and beyond to help you. i loved this college. having some issues now but i would love to go back and finish my degree.
