Im so happy I decided on DCCC to start. The cost is very affordable. I couldnt have been more happy

To be honest, the best way to describe this college is that it feels like home. The library is an awesome place to study. Not only that, I also feel safe on campus. There is security everywhere and if you leave something at the college you will find it a couple of days later, untouched. The staff are nice and the professors are acceptable.

Right out of Highschool, I was totally against going to DCCC. I thought it was for kids who didn't try hard and weren't smart, I had a 3.8 in highschool. I went to a state school for a week and got home sick, my only option was DCCC, due to other schools already in session. Best decision I have aver made, great school and saves money! DCCC is great
Overall 4.6
I absolutely loved going DCCC. I attended three of the school's campuses (Main, Sharon Hill, & UD) all within two years. The professors are extremely knowledgeable and really care about their students. The school offers a variety of clubs that are worth joining. The bad is that the food is terrible, and the financial aid area is very impersonal.

this school has the absolute worst anatomy department. they have not made this pandemic and easier for us and they do not care about their students at all. they act like dccc is harvard or something.
Overall 1.2
You're honestly better off just applying to a University straight off the bat. People hype up this horrid school too much. Books are overly expensive, the latter of "teachers" are disgustingly rude and absurd. The people here are either ghetto trash, sleazy, or disrespectful. I regret all the money and time I wasted here. I can't wait to leave.

This school is just horrible
Overall 1.7
i am regretting why I chose to go to this school, I had 3.9 gpa, before I got advanced in the classes, the professors doesn't make you see your final paper, and they end up giving you any grade they feel like, I had 99 in average of all my tests, when I saw my final grade it was B, can they explain this, this is not the first time, they break hear

The institute says their goal is inclusiveness, yet disturbing pattern displaysed otherwise. There were some great professor (HIS II / ENG COMP I & II / Public Speaking / INT COMM ) but there were a handful of questionable employees. Pennsylvania community college ranked worst in nation 2 years in a row by Niche. Cant say I disagree
Overall 1.9
All professors get political which is why I left as soon as I could. History teacher compared American revolution to terrorism and quotes carl marx as he criticizes police officers every class. English professor emphasized depression which is fine for psychology classes but an English class? Try to avoid this community college if you can!

Do NOT go here for nursing! Save your money and time and go straight for your BSN. This school has a horrible nursing program and the 75% NCLEX pass rate reflects that. The nursing staff is always leaving, every year there is a new "interim" nursing dean. The simulation lab hasn't been renovated since 1972 and has no working equipment. Good luck!
