I had so many issues with my Fafsa! It got to the point where I dropped all of my classes before I even started. And the girl in admissions did not give a F or try to help me at all. I now know why I ve heard bad things about this school. I put so much work into just getting signed up for classes, a...
Wish the counselors and advisors would have actually tried to help when I tried to go back into school.
Hey guys! Im writing this review to let you all know about my experience with PVCC. I've been to a total of four different colleges , and have experience under my belt.
What I dislike:
1) Admissions staff is not knowledgeable of My.Maricopa: The first place most students call at a college is ...
This is the best college ever! I love going to this school.
Phoenix College is the best way to go. I agree the teachers don't care nor do they want to help you succeed. The advisors don't listen. The only good thing about this school is the astronomy teacher Mrs. Weitz she's a great instructor. Which is why I am only going back to this campus in the spring a...
Paradise Valley community college is a great campus for me and here is why:
I am VERY active in asking for help and checking things out BEFORE MY DEADLINE.
If I have a problem I check with MORE THAN ONE counselor.
I asked where to find a progress report for the associates that I wanted. (Mi...
Went to Vote, the Staff were so Helpful and Kind. Voting was easy, everyone was nice, and the Weather was Perfect. Great to be an American and be Free.
The advisors are hit or miss. I took two classes one semester that I later found out are absolutely worthless. I also tried to register for classes one day after they started and they have a brand new policy that forbids this. I now have to change to another college because I missed one class which ...
DO NOT GO HERE. I have never seen such an unorganized, rude, non-caring institution. The teaches do not care about the students they teach. They are only there for a paycheck. The administration/councilor/enrollment offices are even worse! Customer service is the last thing they care about. Even the...
It's a school and it's cheap. Why insult it because you had a bad experience. Grow up.
Most colleges have excellent tutoring services, like at the 4-year college I attended, before taking classes at PVCC. Unfortunately, the writing tutors at this college are TERRIBLE! No help, not friendly, and they don't seem to be good writers themselves! Am I supposed to take writing advice from a ...
Performing Arts programs for the community are great. International Films on Wednesday evenings is a first rate FREE offering. Plays are fun and value priced.
Not sure why there are only negative feedback about PVCC. Really, what was so wrong? I've been going to PVCC on and off since 2003 and they're always improving and I've had all good experiences!
It's a great school and the teachers are fantastic but you have to watch the office administration. They like to change classes that you've already registered for and not tell you about it. Also during the summer the staff seem very lackluster about their job.
Staff at both the community college and the NAU satellite campus have been very helpful. The campus itself is spacious & well maintained.
I just spoke to Matthew at the front desk and he was extremely helpful in answering all my questions!
Only programming class they offer is actually a class on how to work in groups with a little bit of programming theory. Second nearest community college uses the same lazy teacher too. If you care about your grade, avoid, because somebody in your group won't want to put in the effort so you'll hav...
classes here are great, which is the main thing. wish desperately for a centrally located place to get consistent decent coffee, and predictable parking availability.
One Star for the amazing teacher I had and one star for Matthew at the help desk, over all the administration at this school has NO idea what they are doing. Advisors give wrong information regarding test (the story on accepting the classic accuplacer changed from person to person) along with Federa...
I have been attending PVCC on & off since 1990. There have been a ton of upgrades to the campus since I started & the number of programs offered has increased as well. I still enjoy the quiet, small community feel that you get from attending the evening classes. However, the campus is quite crowded ...
If interested in PVCC, do call.
Cynthia who answered my call was very informative and gave me all the information needed to take the next steps. GRATITUDE to Cynthia.
Looking forward to sharing the future experience of signing up at PVCC.
To be honest, this campus has options available for every type of student. If you want to just jam out and get a 2 year degree, you can. If you want to set yourself up to transfer to a University, you can do that too. Or there are nursing programs, fire science, and more. If you are the type of ...
I love this place. Its so cheap and great to get an associates. They have a free tutoring center which is very nice and all the professors are so nice and helpful. t costs about 12-15 hundred a semester
Very proud to have gone to PVCC. It made me ready to pursue my career and am very grateful. The professors are expected exceptionally knowledgeable and care for your education. I wish I could go back in time and go there again.
Students BEWARE: If you have a car problem as battery needing charge and you call the school staff in charge of it for help, check your battery poles before letting them connect the charger. This guys are not MECHANICS.
PVCC is a great community college that is around a great area. This college is not to big but not to small either, I feel that it is just right. I have been there for a year and a half now I have made many great friends and memories on this short journey. This school is very easy to navigate around ...
Can't wait to go do my placement tests tomorrow and get started....
I want my friend Alan Buitimea Gutierrez a student at this school to come to dutch with me and my friends but he can t because this school doesn t cancel classes the day before Thanksgiving. Not cool PVCC
My first year at PVCC was aweful. There was only one or two advisor who helped me other than that they dont wanna deal with you so the keep telling you to go to a different person...Not going back
Terrible financial aid office. You go in and all they do is tell you to go online and fill out a form. Never mind if you have trouble finding the form or need help filling it out, they give you a number to call. After being in the office numerous times over the past 6 years for myself, friends, and ...
Not too hard, a lot easier than highschool, nice campus with overall very good Professors
Great place to learn. I was sad when Professor Surrendra Gangadean retired. He was a great teacher. I love his book Philosophical Foundation.
The only good thing about this school are some of the teachers that care. Other than that I would never go to a school where the dean doesn t care that a teacher isn t teaching. Any other community college is better. Save your money, save your time, go to a school that is full disclosure on courses ...
How stupid is this administration? They apparently do not even understand the first amendment to the constitution. It is very clearly apparent that there is zero possibility of anyone over 5 years old being able to obtain an education from the astounding ignorance of these people.
I like PVCC so far. They have a great staff. you're probably wondering why i removed one star from a perfect rating , right?
Well, there is this lady named sue who works in academic advising. Sue is not very knowledgeable of what she is doing. As a matter of fact, she needed assistance with ever...
PVCC is a great place to begin your college career. The faculty and staff are very helpful and try to make sure that you start off on the right foot. The tutors at the learning support center are very good and they help get rid of those pre-final jitters. The game is also a good place to unwind afte...
I loved my time here for the most part! The CPD teacher Dr.Mendoza is amazing and very kind, it was a perfect welcoming to the college life. Another great counselor was Donna Mosher, she is very kind and will help you with any problem needed.
The reason why I am only rating 4 stars is that they a...
I had a great experience at PVCC when I was working on my transfer degree. I see a lot of negative reviews here and I understand that everyone's experience is different... however, I think you'll get out of it what you put in (to sound super cliche). Had a couple wonderful teachers that I'll remem...
