I graduated SFC in 2015 and this school was the best experience for me. I can honestly and truthfully say I have never had a bad experience here. I had amazing professors and this is so hard to find. The education program is beyond excellent. I just wish sfc had a grad school program for education because I would deff come Here again in a second.

LOVE IT HERE! THEY CARE ABOUT YOU

Though it may be a small college, there are numerous things to do. The professors are really here to help you. You just have to take the first step by getting in contact with them whether it's right after class or you could send them an email. The academic enhancement center really helped me; whether it was writing a paper, tutoring or to destress.

I love this school but what is with the blasting air conditioners dude I'm freezing cold. How could you have multiple students walking around talking about how cold it is and you don't stop and think maybe we should tone it down on the meat locker temperatures -- even on days where its chilly outside. I hope its not like this in the winter.

Wonderful cafeteria!

SFC actually cares about their students. Many campuses' activities and events. Low tuition and fees, compared to other schools in New York, with the same professors and content from more expensive and renowned colleges. I wish they had greater recognition.

School is definately going down hill
Overall 1.2
I had a terrible experience at this college. No one seems to genuinely care for their students and professors will fail you simply because they dont like you. There is no sort of tutoring its all student based and a waste of time. Terrible place for students with learning disabilities because they dont know how to accommodate properly. 0/10

One of the worst decisions of my life. Its like high school all over again, but worse! All the morons from my high school made it in here and I see why. Professors are probably the only thing going for this dark pit. The people are rude and don't act there age. Social events and Greek life are awful and nobody heard of this place for a reason.
Overall 1.4
I feel like it shouldn't be able to be called a college. If you want a "college" experience look elsewhere. Can't wait to transfer. No nice things to say except Brooklyn is nice. The people there lack diversity and it was like pulling teeth being around them because they are rude and strike me as kids who couldn't make any other college

I hate this place! Can't wait to transfer to a REAL COLLEGE

It was the worst school I ever went to. All they care about is your money.
Overall 1.8
If you are looking for a school with an easy commute this is the school for you. If you are looking for a mature environment where the faculty really care about the students then you should look somewhere else.

Do not come here if you want a College experience. Worst mistake I made.
Overall 1.9
I transfered because the entire college is 3 floors, classes vital to my IT major were online without video meetings, some professors lacked professionalism, students' immaturity make it seem like a high school, much of the faculty and professors will ignore your emails. My advice after 4 semesters: If this schools on your college list, take it off
