Transferred here from a private, snooty school. Fellow students are helpful. My instructors are motivated and street smart. They don't waste your time. Low tuition and located in downtown Brooklyn. Easy transportation. Love it!

Long commutes will wear you out, honestly the staff here was not very considerate nor do they care about your success. They just want your money! its a business. Choose somewhere else like Queens College or something.

I hate the location and the inside of the buildings looks like a public high school. Wi-fi barely works. Elevators are always breaking down. Food is ass. The faculty are so unhelpful.

This school is terrible if you want to make friends, the food is overpriced the same price as Starbucks, the teachers are trash. Some would even embarrass you infront of the class, and it is really depressing.

Professors are horrible and treat you like you’re still in highschool. They don’t help at all either. Very sad, students don’t really socialize. There could be 50 students in the hallway and still dead silent. It’s really hard to want to go here when everything about it is horrible.

Only the new building is nice. Mold everywhere and rats running in Namm, Pearl. Not ADA friendly so that when I broke my foot ? couldn’t get around easily. Subways are dangerous and parking is impossible. Everyone is overworked so as a student it’s hard to get support.

For a technology college, you would expect it to have good technology. They should rename this school to sh***y tech cause everything about it is just awful. Dont even waste your time & money applying here. Professors are awful, college is awful, classes are awful. This school is just awful. College is disgusting
