Overall 4.1
Gaston College has been really helpful to me thus far, and I have been taking classes here for over a year. The professors are all mainly wonderful and very smart. I have only had issues with one professor thus far. They have a lot of resources available to you if you need help. I highly recommend Gaston College for those who ask about it!

Attending community college is a cost-effective decision atleast for 2 years, however this is just not the school for me. Every year when it comes to advising and speaking with a counselor then dealing with Web Advisor it's always a goose chase and it seems that almost no one seems interested in helping you or your success (not even the Deam.)
