Excellent community college
Overall 4.4
There are innumerable possibilities for your education here. If you choose to put effort into your education, you will gain much. If you're there to be spoon-fed, you've gone to the wrong place. I've learned more about critical thinking in my classes there. I've learned that if I do the work (or more) I will get more out of my education.

I loved my time at East Central College. My professors were fantastic and encouraging. They made my success as much of a priority and I did. I was involved in several student organizations. If you put the work in, you will be well rewarded with a great education.

No complaints. Always clean and made a lot of good friends here. Everyone is down to earth.
Overall 4.1
tuition is pretty cheap. campus is smaller, but that just means less walking distance between classes. good internet connectivity, smaller class sizes, art gallery is small but always has good exhibits. theater productions are good. feels like a very safe campus. buildings are always clean. the campus does have a lack of trees, but overall 8/10

Campus is nice but landscaping need some work. New food service is better than the last one but still not great. Professors are good, you get out what you put in - they will help you succeed if you work at it. Students services is the worst. Advisors don't seem to know what they are doing. I took classes I didn't need.
