I have spent some of the most memorable moments of my life here! Made so many new friends, and some more people that I disliked! Earned my degree in Comp Sci here! Great and caring professors, guidance counselors here! I have had both Negative and positive experiences here! This place will forever be etched in mind!

True, the office part of this school sucks big time. People that work there are burnt and do not feel like seeing anyone that approaches them. They do forget that we do not do what they do and there is no explanations to the dry requests they throw at you. When I registered I had to go home and come back for three different documents. Granted, we should read the requested list before getting there, but if we did everything why would we need paper pushers? Once you are registered, admitted, and settled in the field of your choice (also lucky enough to not have to go back to the offices ever again) you're up for smooth sailing.
Just like most schools. this one has a hand full of dedicated and aspiring professors as well as some lazy, ignorant a--holes, that stopped trying and stopped perfecting their craft once they got PhD attached to their names. The computer field is the most noteworthy field in this school, just like economics is to Baruch or law is to John Jay. Other fields wouldn't be that much recognized (hopefully things have changed in the last 2 years). Cleanliness in the place isn't that bad, considering there are 1000 unruly pigs roaming the premises at all times.

I was a Communications Design student studying 3D animation.
I so badly want to give 5 stars. The department staff is AMAZING!!! The students are very polite, kind and passionate about their work. During my entire degree, didn't come across a single jerk. Great community. Met some of the best people in my life here, including teachers!
However... The staff that runs the school itself (not the departments) simply don't do their jobs. They just couldn't care less about you.
And then my final gripe is, wow did I need to take a TON of unrelated prerequisite courses. So much wasted time and money on so many unessessary courses. This really bugs me so much because when I got a related course, it was GREAT!
I definitely absolutely would recommend attending here. However, I STRONGLY recommend you look into the BA program. It will allow you to design your own curriculum allowing you to not take garbage courses you couldn't care less about. I wish I knew about BA, but I only found out in my last semester. If you're reading this and aren't close to graduating, GET OFF GOOGLE AND SIGN UP FOR BA!!!

You pay thousands of dollars for a school that barely has any wall jacks to charge and use your laptop. This suppose to be a Tech College.. what a joke. The food is overpriced and terrible. The graduation rate is very low especially the Entertainment Technology major. They dont care about getting you out of here. Most students been trying to get there BT for 8 years plus.

I wish the campus would provide weekend services, including cafe, for those who is interested in entering as weekenders. If this wish is granted, then i would raise to 5 stars.
