Perfect 2 year school. I have loved all my professors so far and the campus is kept very nicely. Parking can be a little rough if you take 10 AMs but aside from that I have no complaints. Great school, and affordable!

If you're entire wardrobe was purchased at a sporting goods outlet and you think that guns are cool, you'll fit in just fine here. Instructors are bored and bitter, and accurately representative of the talent you would expect from a community college in Missouri. There isn't a single tree on campus and parking space is inadequate.
Overall 1.7
Maple Woods is a school that you will be thankful that you attended about six or seven years after being away and recovering from the suffering. Thankfully, there are some great professors here such as Prof. Sharp, Murray, Pruitt, and others that provide a light amidst the darkness that is Maple Woods.

Handicapped access parking is very limited. The campus is spread out and requires a good amount of walking. On a rainy or cold day, the journey across the campus is unfavorable.
