I loved going to this school more so than a university.
Overall 4.6
I love this school with all of my heart. I attended FRCC 6 years ago, right out of high school, got an associate degree and then joined the workforce. After a few years in that field, I decided to reattend Front Range for a second time and now I'm almost done with another degree, and I honestly don't want to leave.

If you are looking for a wonderful school to go to that is smaller and cheaper than a four-year University, go here. A+ rating from me. Graduated Magna-Cum-Laude: AS Biology

the teachers are always willing to help you on the subject they teach or even where to get help with subjects they don't teach. This is the first school that took an interest in what I wanted to do and the family problems that caused me to have issues in school and helped out. Very good school. Really cares about its students.

I think the Math Lab is super benefical for me. I have a total of 34 hours so far and I would be lost without the help. Ive only been to the writing center a few times but that's also a great resource too.

Terrible school. Teachers don't care, counselors are a joke, and the food is terrible. If you are looking to transfer elsewhere, get your grades and get out.

My experience has been awful. Financial Aid is rude and disorganized. I was forced to take out a payment plan because my FAFSA was randomnly audited, and they never paid me back for the canceled payment plan. Most instructors have been poor in my online classes (either no interaction with students on discussion boards, pushing an agenda). Don't go

slowest internet ever

Really pretty, but there are literally NO restaurants nearby, so you have to go to the cafeteria. The cafeteria overcharges like hell for food I wouldn't even feed my kid with. Nearly 5 bucks for two pieces of dry bread and three slices of cheese wo fries. The internet sucks to the point my prof's ppt wont buffer and we had to cancel class.

I'm a student from CU Boulder and took a summer class here cause I thought it'd be easier and cheaper but found it was a mistake. This school is highly unorganized. The financial aid office messed up and instead of letting me know, they just dropped me from my classes for nonpayment. Just a very unprofessional place coming from a university.

The counsellors suck so be prepared to do your own research on what transfers to a 4 year university. If you don’t know which direction you want a career in they will offer no advice. They will never follow up to see how your classes are going, how you are coming along. I guess they get paid to sit around.
