I want to begin by saying i am pretty active on campus. I am involved in many clubs and student government. Saint Paul College has one of the greatest President. He truly cares about the students. We come FIRST! This campus has many activities. Its affordable and accessible. Instructors truly care about us. I wish to see more student involvement.

Saint Paul College is a wonderful place to start your education. The food is cheep and the staff is wonderful. I have met some nice friends there. As an older(in my 40's) returning college student I really appreciate that everything is in one large building.

Overall nice school with helpful counselors, laid-back teachers, and a chill environment. Using this website has helped me get some pretty cool professors too, which I highly recommend.
Bad reviews

Terrible school in many ways. They try to hold you back from moving on from their school to 4-year university by only allowing some classes to be taken only once every year. if you don't take it or if the teacher is bad you have wait a whole year to register it.

Complete crab teachers. They try to accuse you of cheating and set strict timing for quizzes. 10 multiple choice questions in only 10 minutes. I DO NOT RECOMMEND GOING HERE.

Most of the teachers are lousy, and so is the administration. It took them months to resolve simple problems, and only after I complained to the dean. Social groups are nonexistent, as are internships and career opportunities. Stay far away from this school.
Overall 1.6
The teachers I've had so far are okay. The counselors ARE NO HELP AT ALL. They lie to you about which classes you have to take so that you take the wrong ones (and keep paying extra) or don't tell you what classes you have to take in time for the programs you have to apply for so you end up wasting more time getting your degree. Buildings nasty too

This place has really gone down hill, they are so focused on PSEO students and catering to minorities it' like high school. It's conveniently located in Saint Paul which is the only reason I go there. And some of the instructors are so unorganized it's scary.
Overall 1.7
this school do not prepare students to graduate. It just waste of their time and money so student who are looking for degree should not attend this school. unless they just want to take the general courses to transfer somewhere else.
Overall 1.8
I won't recommend applying LPN program in this school.
