I went to school for the first time here in the 1980's, it was a great school then, too. Today it is 10X better. This school is the salvation of the entire area. I think everyone coming out of high school in the area should try college here first at least.

The professors are great, classes are challenging, and the environment is that of what you'd expect from a community college. The academic advisers, financial advisers, and generally anyone working there to help students, is futile. It's impossible to contact these people, in person, via email/phone, I always fail to get a response from them.

I ended up transferring to UIC and Morton was not a preparation school for it. For an easy grade, this school is great. For an education, this school misses the mark by a lot. I left with above a 3.5 GPA and was not prepared for UIC at all. I received all C's my first semester but I plan to pick it up next semester and get all A's.
Overall 2
Not a good experience. Teachers are ok but they could be better. Don't attend Morton if you have the opportunity to go somewhere else.
Overall 2
Not what I've expected from a college. Teachers are in it for themselves, instructors do a below average job.
Overall 2
The city community colleges were much better. I went to two of them, Morton is crap compared to them, that's sad.
