I don't have a bad memory of my time at BCC, staff was helpful and wanted to see me succeed. Online classes are great and so accommodating with your schedule. I'd take classes here again if I ever needed to in a heartbeat.

Highly recommend the New Bedford campus! Excellent professors, but don't count on much advisement.

Very unclear with policies and even if you do think you've understood them there's always more in fine print you weren't aware of. Never return phone calls and are rude if you have questions they find irrelevant even though they are important to you.

None.

HORRIBLE and I mean HORRIBLE advisors. You could ask a question from 10 different advisors and get TEN different answers, which is terrible because these people are dealing with your future, and they don't even know what their doing. I've taken a multitude of unnecessary classes. If I had a choice I would drop out of BCC in a heartbeat.
Overall 1.5
Disappointed in this school on every level. Reconsider before attending.
Overall 1.6
Majority of the Professors at bcc lack enthusiasm and creativity. BCC also doesn't disperse book advances untill mid semester which makes it impossible to use financial aid to purchase school supplies. They also don't let you purchase any merch from the book school (back-packs or pens) with book advances which is also very inconvenient.
Overall 1.7
The professors are either too difficult or too easy. Many professors are very uncaring when it comes to questions, late work, emergencies, etc. Not many options to choose from for professors - if you need a class to graduate and there is only one professor teaching it, it could risk your grade if they aren't recommended.
Overall 1.8
administration at the school is awful! Especially the advisment center if you go here your better off advising yourself so you don't waste your money taking usles classes

If you enjoy playing on your phone and learning nothing with slack job teachers this is the school for you!!!
Overall 1.9
BCC is a wonderful Community College but nothing more. The Staff are sometimes helpful and other times just awful. For me, classes are extremely easy and I feel there is no challenge here. For others, this school is a place for opportunities and a chance to rebuild your life and yourself.

This school is terrible, trying to get help with something is like digging for buried treasure they are horrible to you. They are constantly changing your schedule and teachers. I have picked 2 specific teachers and they have switched them both last minute. The professors are rare to come by a good one. I don't recommend this school to anyone.
