"For the value, I think KCC is wonderful. Beautiful Diamond Head is behind you and the beach is nearby. Can't beat the price either."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | KCC was an excellent choice for beginning my education. I transferred to the University of Arizona and I know that stuff I learned at KCC benefited me in the long run. |
| Program Reputation | 8 | It's a great start for those kids who don't know what they want to do with their lives. Getting a well-rounded education is an under appreciated aspect of learning. |
| Program Quality | 7 | It's a beautiful campus and I felt I learned a lot in a well-rounded education setting. The instructors were close and the class sizes were small. |
| Instruction | 8 | The instructors were professional and fair in grading. I never felt like I had a second rate education because they offered challenging material. |
| How Difficult | 5 | I'm a pretty smart guy that went to community college because of financial reasons. It wasn't difficult for me, but I could see how others would be challenged. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | I've done field work projects for natural science courses. But then there's also loads of lectures as well. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 8 | KCC was very flexible. They offered online classes and also weekend courses. |
| Academic Facilities | 6 | There was a library and computer labs. Also, there's a large cafeteria with excellent food and a big courtyard in which to study and hold events. |
| Social Life | 3 | A community college doesn't have the same feel as a university. Meeting people is possible, but usually through academics, not social settings. |
| Placement Services | 2 | As far as I know, no job placement exists. No career services come to mind. |
| Alumni Network | 2 | As far as I know, there aren't any famous alumni from KCC. Maybe there are in the culinary field because that's what the school is known for. |
