Way too political. You will also be shamed and ridiculed for sharing a different opinion

Kim Larose is a very rude and unprofessional person. Dont bother emailing the health and wellness department they wont email you back or answer your questions. They (kim larose) will genuinely just ignore you. I couldnt even complete the steps to admit myself into the college because of her actions but its a blessing because I can tell that this school is very unprofessional so dont bother coming here unless you want to be dismissed and have to do everything yourself. I had to pull teeth just to get ONE question answered (WEEKS later) disgusting behavior by her and the entire college

Charged me for an entire semester that I never attended all because I told them two days late that I wasnt able to attend this semester and nobody did anything to try to help, lady on phone was rude and dismissive. Beware once you click register now they will do nothing to confirm whether you are going or not, they will give you random classes and charge you full price. How ironic the place that is supposed to be affordable will charge you for not going, and will make no exceptions to try to help you remove charges for services you never received. Guess I just made a $1600 donation

The Broadcast Media Communication program (BMC) is top notch. One of the best in the entire country.

Graduated here a bit ago. Overall, this place is aesthetically beautiful. The wildlife, overview of the city, and sunsets while having headphones make you enjoy your free time there. However, there are a lot of things I wish could be improved here. For one, the dining experience is interesting. None of my friends enjoy it, there is occasional food poisoning, and the allergy/diet accommodations are few to none and staff are only given a seven minute training for accommodations through video. I warn anyone who plans to live on campus with allergies have a good lawyer and doctor or connections at school that will care about your health because the meal plan is mandatory and I have been told by my friend with celiacs that it is complicated to get accommodations without getting mistakes in their food that is life threatening. There is a food bank that can provide meats and veggies but Wegmans/Aldis nearby will be your best friend. Also, there is no food available on Sundays/Saturdays until 12pm. Living on campus without a car is a struggle, but I have heard Veo scooters are now on campus. Nevertheless, unless you have a friend who lives on campus with a car, each week will grow increasingly frustrating if you're stuck on campus. Parties are abundant but can be frustrating if you study diligently. Only building B has a kitchen in the room and I don't recommend using the public kitchens in A or C. The dorms are way better than other SUNY dorms, but make sure to document any problems and contact maintenance, unless you want to pay extra fees. Make sure you have friends to dorm with you and get a single room, because you could get ANYONE. I have had nightmare experiences with suitemates using my things without permission, and unfortunately a lot of my friends have had that problem. There are lots of good staff, and there are staff who do questionable things. Look at RateMyProfessor and definitely ask people for info on previous professors. I'm lucky to have had most of my instructors, since they are amazing people. One concern I have is the amount of stress they have from the workplace, which means stress on students. Expect this to be commonplace and understand they are people too. Micron is making big changes and it's overwhelming staff and students. Transferring and financial aid have been frustrating. I had to figure out everything myself on how to transfer because the transfer services are frustrating to reach out to and bring more questions than answers, so you'd be more in luck asking for help from the transfer institutions in the college you're transferring too. With financial aid, all I can say is make sure you look into it every week/month in case miscellaneous fees are charged and make sure to apply for TAP and FAFSA if able. There is a joke here that everyone has problems with financial aid here. Near the end of my last semester, changes were being made to the program I was a part of. Beforehand, a lot of my classes I needed to graduate with were cancelled and I ended up with credits I could not transfer with, classes I was overqualified for, and courses that ended up being too crowded. As a result, I will have to take another year at my new institution. Some courses are cancelled without reason, so do be wary. One of my friends had to confront the dean to fix this problem or else they would not graduate. Overall, talk to your professors once you get screwed over like this and they will help. I am lucky to have had the professors I had, but I felt there was more stress than there should've been with my college experience. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and made countless connections, but I question if I would be better off at a 4 year. I would suggest coming here if you would like to get back on your feet, like me, or take a few courses or just imprive your GPA. If you expect to go to a 4 year college and you want to save money at a community college, I recommend you do more research. On the more good side of things, you will definitely find amazing people and friends here.
