I genuinely love this school. For 5 times less of the cost, you actually GET the one-on-one help from the professors that teach your classes. The staff is very caring and they will always go the extra mile for you to get the resources you need. Also, their Student Life office is a GREAT place to find clubs and make social connections in college.

This school is so amazing. It was as easy as pulling up to the McDonald's drive thru and getting my degree. I can tell Waubonsee really cares about their student's futures. What a great school!

I love this school. I can't in enough words say how much I enjoy going here. I am having such a hard time finding a four-year school to transfer to because none of them compare to Waubonsee. They have so many opportunities if you seek them out. It is cheap already and does so much to help with scholarships.

Nothing but the best at the distinguished, prestigious, Waubonsee Community College, where only the best and the brightest may grace their hallways. It's better than flipping hamburgers I guess.

A professor and student got revenge against me for something that was just an accident. They were using the WW Monk talent tree in WoW as a way to harass me. Dr. Jeanne McDonald said to me, "I've had other students who were disabled and they did okay." What you did to me is unforgivable and I hope karma repays you 1000 fold.

The biggest mistake of my life was coming here. The professors teaching here are such horrible people.

Worst college ever.

I am so glad to be leaving Waubonsee after the last encounter I had with somebody from the student center (A place that is supposed to make you feel like you belong at the school) the way they were responding to my questions about volunteering for the tornado disaster in Rochelle was rude and uncalled for. Also have fun finding bones in your salad.

I would go to a different school if you have the option. I’ve been a part time student for several years and to be honest the college is a mess. All of the counselors and high ups are cycled out after a year or two. The last few semesters have been awful with teachers. Go to a different community college. You will do much better grade wise.

College is supposed to be a memorable experience, but at this point, I'm just annoyed and want to graduate. Every counselor I met was rude. I went to the counselors when I was going through personal things at home and it was really bad.. They don't care or listen to you. You're just a number at waubonsee. You get what you pay for.
