This school is very good. Especially if you want to go into technology. You get real world experience. Most of my professors have been good except for one. But the rest have been great.
Overall 4.5
I think Sinclair is a great school with good professors and staff that really cares about you. There are a lot of resources for help and financing and opportunities to make yourself stick out from others. The campus is pretty and close to lots of things to do, I've always felt safe on campus, and the food is yummy.

Avoid this school the president is a joke. Dont waste your time or money on a worthless degree. The staff is extremely unprofessional. The security needs to be retrained in who pays their salaries.
Overall 1.4
Becoming an "education factory", not an "academic institution". As in, less personal, more "get them in, get them out". Developmental math - horrible. Way too much work, way too "middle school-ish" for adult classes. I researched who created this format for Sinclair. It was middle school teachers. We're adults.
Overall 1.4
Sinclair has a horrible reputation, as it is a community college. However, I'm a high school student who's taken classes here, wright state, and miami middletown and this is by far the most helpful and organized place I've experienced. Schedule planner makes signing up for classes super simple and even exciting.

Do not go to this school. You will have problems year/semester round with everything from financial aid, advisors, professors, transferring, and the list goes on. I attended for a total of 3 years due to everyone giving me the run around about my degree. Have spotted homeless people sleeping inside campus buildings/bathrooms. DON'T GO.

no help and they run you in circles

campus is in a bad location and its too crowded. Sketchy people attend this school and the professors don't care if you pass or fail.
