We were looking into my daughter attending this college, but after all of the horrible reviews I've read I'm very concerned. If anyone has any suggestions or any more information about this place could you please let me know specifics.
I love the friendly atmosphere in this college! Staff are nice and kind, everyone is eager to help. Tarted at the door during the orientation every staff member was smiling and welcoming, I felt the passion of the speakers, they didn't want the new students to go wondering about what they should do. I attending this college to complete some prerequisites for the graduate school, so I am not the regular type of students. But I can tell with confidence this college is an important pillar in the community! and they want to succeed, take the chance and enjoy the experience!
I would like the administration and students know that you have an All-Star team member in Gloria Murphy at the Southwest campus. She has excellent customer and multi tasking skills. She was the only person in the office and handled a multitude of request from many people where most would have been overwhelmed. She possesses a positive attitude and deep knowledge of the schools processes.
Great people. supportive staff. With a solid mission
The department dealing with transcripts is very unprofessional and rude. I have been trying for four months to get three copies of my transcript. They sent one although I put 3 where it asked how many. I mailed in another request for two more. I never received them. I emailed the admissions department to see what happened. They responded back asking where to send it and I responded. However, I never received them. I then called and was told to do another request. I did another request in September. I just spoke with them only to tell me that they sent only one again on October 3rd. Her reason was because I only had one place listed to send and she didn't see why they would need two copies. So I then had to explain that it was going to the same place. Once received, the department would see to it that all three committee members got a copy. I shouldn't have had to explain that since on the request I asked for two. Furthermore more it's not for her to know why! What's the purpose of putting the number needed on the form if they only send the number they feel should be sent. No where on the transcript request does it ask why you need them. It just ask how many. I now have to send off another request for the third one. By the time I request another one and wait for it in the mail, it will be past the deadline at my job. I will have to wait until next year. This has been four months of nonsense.
Bishop State is really a great place to start, they have a lot to offer students....from resources, a great learning center where you can go get help for classes you may need tutoring in, and also really great instructor's that actually care to help students learn and succeed. It's not just a community college, but the opportunity for you is so much bigger! Anyone who is looking for an affordable college where you can benefit from so many great resources and learning skills to help you become successful...... Bishop State is the place for you! I love it! #PTA student
Everyone there was so helpful, down to earth and friendly!!!
You can't find the books you need on the website. They want you to come in and buy the books from them. The people at the bookstore will give you an attitude if you ask to just look at the book. When will they take down the picture of Bill Cosby? A man accused of rape by several different people and his face is still displayed at the school?
I love Bishop State! I finished their nursing program YESTERDAY!!! It wasn t easy. But it showed me that I had what it took to push through the hardest of days to accomplish what I set out to do! People underestimate Bishop State! You EARN your degree here, which is how it s supposed to be. If you don t show up and show that you have it, they won t just hand you a degree. You have to prove that you have got what it takes. Bishop doesn t produce slackers!
The school is rather confusing, as the buildings are not clearly marked. The insurance and testing center parks and enters through time parking deck.
