It's a good school for a community college, the only negative review I have is that the food is not very cheap but it tastes like it.
Bad reviews
Overall 1
This is the worst college campus I've attended. The teachers are great, but when it comes to accommodations for tests, they don't give it to you! Used the testing center because I have a disability, and they wouldn't let me. Ridiculous!!! This campus is a scam!!!

CLC isn't the best, but it's there so whatever.
Overall 1.8
Worst college in the area. Far worse than Oakton. Some of the teachers are phenonenal, but the majority are lacking. Although it is cheap, I suggest holding onto your money and not playing roulette with the teachers; you win the lottery if you get a decent one here.
Overall 1.8
Vast majority of teachers are not good. The school has the nickname of College of Last Chances, but that is not for the students, but rather the professors having no clue of their subjects. Not all professors are bad, some are very good. To make matters worse, this school is horrific for the veteran community.
