The college itself is a great Institution but unfortunately some of the instructors there doesnt fit the standard of the college independent most of my time there I receive really nothing but bad experiences from a few of the instructors but there are many instructors who do meet that standard of what the college represents

This place is horrible. Theyre not supportive. They dont care about students. Being a community college the still expect you to out them first and ignore your life and family. The aviation program is a joke. The va center doesnt take care of veterans, but kinda just sits there in the student center. Expecting you to figure out everything you need and not out in an effort to make it easier on vets. Doug williams is a absolute joke.

Not being a student I cannot rate the quality of education there. My purpose was to visit the library. It was spacious and well laid out with many open spaces. It had plenty of areas for both individual and group study. There was lots of parking out front as well. I have been to many college libraries in my time and this was one of the better ones.

Some teachers and staff are really good and professional, but some just do not know what they are doing on their work place. Especially administration... Do not understand differences between status in US and type of visa which allows to study. Do not know clear answers on simple questions such as documents for in-county tuitions. They prefer simply send you an extra bill. I wish the staff will trained better.

CCBC prioritize money over Education. I was placed in collections after 1 month, charged 50 dollars in fee; like a pandemic is not happening. I just want to register for classes. #ccbc

As we are from the UK, my wife and I had never visited the college prior to our son starting at the college, so we couldnt be entirely sure about it.However, from day one he spoke very highly of the staff and when we did get to visit recently, we saw first hand what good genuine people they all are. In particular Mindy, coach Mike, Megan , coach Christian and his CAD teacher, -Adam held in high esteem.We are extremely grateful for the time and attention bestowed upon him.A good college with some very good people!

If I could rate this school a 0 I would! The financial aid office is so UNORGANIZED and UNPROFESSIONAL. Definitely would not recommend anyone going to this school. They just want their money, they do not care for your needs.

Horrible!!!! I am done with this school!!!! They enrolled me into a a few classes that I never took, my GPA dropped because I never went (because why would I take the class I didnt sign up for). I am currently looking to do a fresh start at another community college if possible. CCBC cares more about making money than giving people a good education. I have a group of friends that go here, every time we turn around we all have a problem with CCBC.

Not the best community college Maryland has to offer. Very diverse campus, but a lot of the students seemed to be to themselves and not very friendly. The parking sucks. Also, went on a volunteer trip to the Convention Center in the city a couple of years ago and I was one of the few students left behind that had to figure out how to get home. Luckily I took the CCBC Essex bus to their campus and took the shuttle bus back to the Catonsville campus (that should have been a red flag right there). Nobody seemed to care that students somehow got left because the bus left early and nobody did a proper head count. The academic advisers arent very helpful. When I go to financial aid or registration with what I believe to be simple questions, I usually have to wait for an answer or find some sort of supervisor to clarify things because I get multiple answers to one question or nobody seems to know the answer. I recently graduated this past December 2017 but it took so long for them to put grades in, I had to wait until early January before I could get my final transcripts sent off despite my grades being put in by my professors 12/15/17. As a result, I have to sit this spring semester out because the classes I need to take at the school I wanted to transfer to are filled and wait-listed, which puts a damper on my education. Also, I have yet to receive my associates degree in the mail (today is 1/15/18). I called twice to try to figure out why I havent received my degree yet. Each time I called, I was asked Are you sure you graduated? VERY frustrating experience but Im glad I stuck it out to graduate.*EDIT* Just found out that my academic adviser really didnt know what she was doing. I was told that my courses, including the math course most importantly, would transfer to my next college. That was not the case at all!

Classes I give a five star teachers could use some work but when it comes to tuition requirements it sucks. I wasnt learning nothing in one class so I decided to drop the class because I didnt want to fail at the end of the semester. that resulted me in losing my financial and owing 2k dollars to the school

I really enjoyed attending this location temporarily for a semester. It is a beautiful campus that has a lot to offer, but this college. Needs to update. Meeting with financial advisors is impersonal and your personal business is exposed. As I helped a friend and classmate sort things out it was very disappointing to not be able to talk personally and have everyone know your business.

Everything about this school screams OLD. It is 2015 right??? This school only accepts MAILED in request for transcripts! Good Lord! They need to step up into the age of technology and at least accept them via fax...and stop charging for them as well! AACC transcripts are FREE, unofficial and official!

It seems this school has far outgrown its capacity and customer service has left the campus. At the registrars, staff gets tired and rude during at peak times, and wait on the phone can be well over 45min. I called and was on the phone for over 30min and when someone picked up, I got disconnected, which was absolutely intentional, because it happened to me 3X in one day. I visit offices and cant even find anyone to ask a question. Email is the only way you might get someone to respond and even then dont count on it! Shame.

Ms. Sagers, my MATH 082 teacher, Mrs. Kline, Mrs. Glassman, Mr. Rice, and Ms. Shea for online were the only teachers who cares about their students success and dont stay off topic. It was hard getting information I needed from one staff member without going back-and-forth to the same people. I met some nice colleagues who are older than me and didnt flake on me, like my peers did. Some staff members in this college were nice and had great customer service. Others didnt, especially this new short girl, who always have her hair in different hairstyles, every Friday, since March 1st, 2019 as a cashier. I thought she was pretty, but then she gave me the impression that she was mean and careless. Jenna, from financial aid, doesnt really complete her job & I had to repeat a process again bc of her. The other financial aid members were nice. The women at the Bursars Office dont seem like they loved their jobs. The black women who works at the library are rude, biased and mean. I overheard them mocking me while I was printing something out with a quarter one of them gave when I specifically asked for a dime, since the printers dont give change back. They also had an attitude problem. Other library workers were nice. My peers would stare at me enjoying eating lunch alone and compliment my outfit while walking pass me and I was minding my business, or I was a reminder for themselves that they quote out loud for me to hear (e.g. I wore a jacket, a woman said she forgot to wore her jacket that day). So, this school gets 2-stars, instead of 1.

Now I don’t typically take the time to complain about waiting but the new staff they have at this location are terrible. I came in a bit early for my exam which I do every semester. I know the staff likes to take a tremendous amount of time seating you so I come in with a significant time to spare. Usually with afternoon exams there’s a line waiting to sign in. Surprisingly enough it isn’t busy today. I walk in and advise the lady working the desk that my exam isn’t until 11 but I’m here early. She explains to me that she cannot seat me till 11. I’ve been coming here for years and I’ve never had an issue with testing seating. This exam will probably take me at most 5-10 mins since I’m overly prepared. The kicker is there is NO ONE sitting in the inside waiting room, there is NO ONE outside the waiting room, and in fact about 5 students have left while I’ve been waiting to be seated. I plan to make a formal complaint with the pictures of taking of literally no one being here while I patiently wait to take a 10 minute exam. The previous proctors had no trouble seating early students and were extremely personable and accommodating. You can just tell the new staff clearly dislike their position here. I’m watching people come and go and she still hasn’t made the effort to even check in with me. If you guys have the ability to go to the Owings Mills testing center is highly recommend going there. The staff in Owings Mills is quick, efficient and friendly.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would - most folks at this school are racist pay attention to the bad reviews I did not and had to find out on my own - this place is money hungry - do not care about your education only money - staff are unorganized- the people in office are very judgmental - and sit behind the desk looking at instagram all day very sad I transferred immediately I suggest you do the same as well

Im so DONE with this college. So many of their faculty & administration are EXTREMELY RACIST! Also, some of the fellow students have SEVERE attitude problems.Sent a complaint email to the director of disability support services and I ended up getting berated. I wasnt even disrespectful towards him, I just wanted to address their lack of tutoring services.Also, as a student with a math learning disability, I faced discrimination. Heard one of the professors constantly rambling off about how American students are behind.

Review №47

I wouldve given this review a 4 or a 5 star rating, but the president of the school has since terminated the schools counseling program; abandoning all of the students who dont have the financial resources to seek help because of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts. Whats worse, is that the president tried to do it as quietly as possible with the intention of preventing anyone from interfering with the decision. In short, this school does not care about the well being of its students or its faculty.

I went through a rough patch of depression and long story short, had motivation issues, failed classes and was suspended. Completely understandable, of course. However, after my suspension I returned and tried taking online classes, and the sites for them are absolute messes.There are like 5 different ways to see your assignments and only two of them show actual assignments, sometimes there are things you cant see without going through some really weird steps, Ive been using computers since I was in diapers and couldnt begin to navigate the mess that was Blackboard. It was so bad, I lost two weeks of work because I COULD NOT FIND THE ACTUAL ASSIGNMENTS SECTION and had to withdraw. I managed to pass the other class just barely with an 80, passing grade.I only took two classes, since I wanted to take it slow and wanted to make sure I didnt fail. Yet, despite the fact that I passed, they put me on suspension for a SECOND TIME.If youre worried youll have motivation troubles or if you struggle academically, dont bother coming. They only care about keeping the averages up.

I like the diversity here. I have only taken continuing education classes here so far and enjoyed it as well as my teacher besides my male old voice teacher who tried to kiss me. Other than that i tried not basing every thing on him and went back for childcare and had a great teacher. So now im going this fall for my associates in music and then transfer to umbc and so far some of the staff on Catonsville campus are rude and/or racist but i plan to ignore that because as African American student this is one of the only diverse community colleges in Baltimore thats in my area. I look forward to my future not the school.

Once you get into a class things are fine... usually. However, this college has the worst website architecture Ive ever encountered. If you find what you are looking for, its luck pure and simple. If you call for assistance from course managers, etc., its a crap shoot.Seriously, if you can get what you need elsewhere, check there first.

Had left Anne Arundel Community college to attend here and apply to the nursing program. This school, buildings, and the overall population of people were GREAT. Took Moral Phylosphy (Honors Ethics) with Dr. Bill Rice, who was FANTASTIC! EXCELLENT class, great teaching style. Most schools tend to lean left, however here it feels extremely neutral. However, Professor Shawn Sagers, my speech professor was the opposite of Dr. Rice. The day she noticed I wore a TeamTrump shirt, her whole attitude changed. She did not make reasonable accomodations for me,even though I went to disability services. She asked me for proof my grandmother was dying, YES..she actually asked for a doctor or nurse to write an explanation of what was wrong with her, how long she has been in the hospital and contact information for the. Very inappropriate and a HIPPA violation. She had numerous complaints and taught the class as if we were children and had no idea what an outline is, and always told us what to do our speech on, which was usually about some foundation. Besides her, loved this school. Highly recommend and really enjoyed it.

The Essex campus is a complete and total joke. If you have a question or need help you get shuffled around to every office on campus only to be told they cant help you. The academic advising secretaries are rude and condescending, but thats all of the office workers.Anyone can be a teacher here if they have a masters, so be careful for that.I wouldnt recommend the Essex campus to anyone who is taking their education seriously.

I have had problems with ccbc in the past but there always seems to be someone at Catonsville to talk to about it , that being said not every time something is done about the issue but they will at least try to help in someway. The teachers that currently work at Catonsville are relatively nice with the exception of a Select few. on campus theres not really much to do when youre not in class , theres the café area where you can sit and eat or theres the library . The Cafes prices for food is relatively great but drinks are actually pretty expensive with a rockstar coming in at almost five dollars but an entire grilled cheese at just one dollar. There is also the barn which was made as a student hang out but every time I go in there it looks like a magic the gathering meeting, everyone just kind of sitting there doing nothing. so if you plan on having a long break in between classes , either plan to find a place near campus to go hang out or bring a laptop or something to play games or watch a movie on if youre not studying or doing homework.

The financial aid department at Essex community college is awful. Jamia is especially rude. There is no offer of counseling. She only refers you to the website for infirmation. In order to speak with someone they will only call you with 24 to 48 hours if the post it makes it to a supervisor. No face to face counseling offere. Baltimore city community college spent time to go over financial aid options and provided. I would suggest going there if you need federal funding for college.

Review №67

Extremely unprofessional and disorganized school. This semester CCBC screwed over hundreds of students from being eligible for scholarships due to registering everyone late. When students attempted to resolve the issue, staff began blaming the problem on each other rather than resolving the issue. I know many students who may not be able to continue in their program due to loss of scholarships they wouldve otherwise been eligible for. CCBC needs to get it together. We, as students, are constantly given strict deadlines, and if we are late - we fail... The staff is constantly late and disorganized in completing necessary tasks and the students are the ones who suffer for it every single time.
