I graduated from here about 2 years ago from running start (wonderful program btw), and this school is literally the GOAT. I emailed a teacher that I needed an extension because was struggling with my mental health and they were SO chill about it. Lots of activities on campus. Literally the best. Seriously GO HERE!!!!

Bad reviews

This school has terrible communication . I have tried multiple times to reach out to staff and they never respond to calls or emails. The proffesors arent the best either. I have only had one or two that have actually be helpful and caring.
Overall 1.2
Clark College is easily the worst school I have attended. I have many friends who attempted to go to school at Clark and they were let down. No communication with advisors and 90% of the professors are just there for a paycheck very few actually care about their students. Do not go here if you want to graduate
Overall 1.3
This school needs work. they dont treat students fairly and staffing options are terrible
Overall 1.8
I'm a student rep., EVC, Tenure, and S&A funds. Published documentaries by OPB, NPR & PBS, document racial discrimination. No financial transparency resulting in litigation to compel records (NPR). Financial mismanagement and educators union trump student interests, actual graduation rate 12% in 3 years. Watch documentaries OPB, PBS & NPR.
Overall 1.9
Won't recommend this school to anyone

Clark College seems to go out of it's way to harm the students, employees, and the overall community. They preach acceptance but take zero action when questionable situation are happening on the campus. It is very clear that the profit margin is their primary concern.
