Windward Community College is like no other campus, (I've been to them all here in Hawaii)and they are very patient, kind, understanding and down to earth. They helped me with mapping out both my courses left to finish and graduate as well as my financial aid. Aunty Geri Imai in registar, Uncle Steven in financial aid and Heipua the counselor :-)
Overall 4.5
Love this school. The energy is just so laid back and relaxed. If you're stressing on finals you just gotta look outside and enjoy the view of the mountains AND ocean. Its very zen and the teachers are all very helpful. I really don't want to transfer over. If I could take all my classes here I would!

This campus is very picturesque, all the professors really try to help, and the Hawaiiana activities are open to the public featuring renowned musicians. The administration is friendly and very helpful, importance is on the student. The TRIOS (a non profit student support center) open 24 hrs for finals week with food, and ALWAYS very supportive

The instructors, administrators, librarians, counselors, even the business office staff: they all really care about the students! Yeah,some features are found across other UH campuses, but the choice ones here are agripharmatech, theater, ceramics n visual arts, Hawaiian Studies, nursing pathways, Vet tech programs. And especially the library!

Overall 4.1
Beautiful campus! Easy to get around. Library is amazing and everyone is always so helpful and nice there. Teachers have been great so far. The food is the only "meh" thing. Overpriced for an okay portion. They need better food. Just bring your own food and you'll be fine! ;)

I work and go to school here and WCC has become my home away from home. Beautiful, campus, teachers, and people. The library is GORGEOUS and there are so many resources for whatever you may need. I love it! If i could stay here through my bachelors degree I totally would.

Currently going into my second year at WCC and I don't want to leave! The professors here are great, the campus is beautiful, and everyone there is so relaxed. Classes are small so the teachers actually know your name. Overall, great campus and staff, definitely a great option for people who can't afford university or are going to school part time.
