Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | I would if they were interested in working on a line in a restaurant. I hope in the future that my education will be able to separate me from the cooks without one. |
| Program Reputation | 6 | Their reputation is respectable around the area. When you work somewhere, the employer knows what they can expect out of you. |
| Program Quality | 7 | The school had good teachers that had real-world experience. School was cheap for a pretty good education. |
| Instruction | 7 | The instruction was good. Career prep could have been a little better. |
| How Difficult | 3 | Found the program to be pretty easy. There were some less intelligent people in the classes, so it needed to be easier for them. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | Very much a mix. I enjoyed the hands on much better. I also gained more useful experience working hands on. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 8 | They are very flexible. They offer a wide array of class times and have weekend classes. |
| Academic Facilities | 6 | The school has an array of libraries across the metro area. They have different campus locations, so access to one is always easy. |
| Social Life | 2 | It is a commuter school. Not the best place to meet women. |
| Placement Services | 3 | Job placement is not great. I did get my job by getting to know one of my teachers well. |
| Alumni Network | 2 | Not very good contact with alumni. I do work with two from my same school. |
