Review Summary

I took Acting & Gymnastics classes growing up as a kid @ KCC; along with taking other performing arts enrichment classes @ Brooklyn College also while growing up, although Brooklyn College wasn't affiliated with my high school like KCC was. KCC has a great campus for a CUNY two-year college (one of the nicest in the CUNY system being right on Manhattan Beach) and is also the partner CUNY institute with my High School alma mater, Edward R. Murrow whom it operates the CollegeNow! program with. I spent my Junior and Senior years at Murrow taking KCC college-level courses taught by both Murrow faculty, and visiting KCC faculty (at Murrow) as well as commuting to the KCC campus from Murrow for additional classes that could only be taught on-site @ the KCC campus. It was EXTREMELY academically enriching to be able to enjoy a college level curriculum whilst still being in High School; and that was due directly to KCC's collaboration with my high school. My GPA went up as a result of the CollegeNow! program during my last two years at Murrow as did my SAT scores. I have KCC to thank for that. 👍👏👏👏👏Ben Schaeffer

Kingsborough CC has a very nice entertainment program, well-run and well-sited, with both indoor and outdoor venues. This year's 4-part post-pandemic return to their July outdoor series has been a real winner for the 3 weeks of it so far, with decent weather enhancing the winning combination. Performers have commented on how well-received they are when they come to perform there, from an enthusiastic staff that really respects their art, to receptive audiences. That reputation has allowed audiences to see a number of top-notch acts more than once there, as the artists appreciate that respectful treatment. There have been other events there, all of which were interrupted by COVID since it came around, so there will be needed time to get those back on track. There are cautionary protocols in place even now: those attending must provide proof of vaccination, with masks optional. Not sure of masking will or will not be required once the indoor events resume, but it certainly appears that the staff has kept up-to-date with everything necessary.N H Tanner

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Donna Marjorie Donzella. I was a student at Kingsborough Community College in the fall of 1992. I was in the pre-nursing program. On November 3, 1992 I suffered a terrible fall that left me in a coma. I was in a coma for five days… Glad I survived and since then have published two books.Donna Donzella

I can't believe I made it through this journey. I obtained my diploma thanks to the school and amazing teacher, Nick. He is very motaticle when it comes to teaching and has plenty of patience to deal with 20+ students. I wish I had teachers like him back in high School. He gave me confident and I put the effort to study his teaching and it paid off. I have my high school diploma, now I can go and pursued a career. Thank you so much Nick and rosemary. It's a great school I highly, highly recommend.Jose Lopez

Review Summary

This school is garbage. They can’t even find teachers who want to teach here and when they do they might not even have a degree or know what they’re talking about. (GOOGLE GOES A LONG WAY) the teachers have nasty attitudes specifically Ms dascher who has been there a few years so they won’t fire her. Don’t mind making a complaint to the director it’ll get ignored. Mr Okundaye who brings his personal problems to school and tries to make you miserable right along with him (again no disciplinary action when my whole class told the school he’s a horrible teacher) They are probably all mad from the low salary they receive since the school is federally funded. They don’t care about your success… just that a behind is in a chair so they can get paid. One thing though ms Nicholas the math teacher is brilliant!!! They got one star for me solely because of her. The rest of you suck and I’m not bringing your books back. Peace.Tayla Boyd

BEOC is a very good school, they have TASC Program nursing tech, micro soft, college readiness. ect..i've learned a lot already in a short time . the teacher works with you in your level, and if you don't understand your class work they'll assign you to a tutor. The tutor are friendly and helpful, they help you understand the work you need help in. BEOC also has an attain lab with and ISI or AZTEC, in this Lab you can work on your own, and brush up on your weak points. the lab coordinators are also very helpful. if you need any other help with your work ,you can ask the lab coordinator or the advisor to set up a buddy group, these buddy groups are helpful because it allow you to learn from others and visaversa you can' go wrong . i have a lot of tools i can use to better myself .luz solla

Still waiting for the OSHA 30 Certificate class to start since January. They make you sign up online (really hard to navigate btw) to notify me when classes start. fast forward until today….Still no updates. I constantly try to email the offices and they keep telling me the same thing "classes do not start yet" for like the 12th time now through out the last 3 month. It would be more convenient if there were a date to look forward to or give me a more honest reason as to why there arent any classes yet. Very unsatisfiedronald bernal

Review Summary

All I can say is WOW!!! This school is amazing. I have had my 12 year old enrolled in Jump-in since she was 7 years old and can not be ANY happier. The Faculty (Everyone from Top to Bottom is amazing) and Top notch. The academics are challenging and invite the "love of learning and the Arts" my daughter is very unique and it is hard to find a environment that caters to her. The Teachers are involved and care, I get calls from the Teacher(s) just to tell me how well my child is doing. This school and staff are all involved and are that is great and hard to find. If you are considering a private and small camp or learning program you need to do yourself a favor and check out all of Jump-in's programs have to offers. Jump-in is THE BEST and sets the bar from any other Private program in Brooklyn. If you are serious about your children(s) education and are considering private learning forget about anything you hear or have heard and judge for yourself; go to a few Social media sites and you will understand why Jump-in has the wonderful reputation locally/nationwide that it has earned over the past 12+ years of cultivating Leaders for Tomorrow.Living Waters International

BITTER SWEET This is the last week of summer camp and my 10yo is the sadness kid on the planet. He does not want Camp Jump-In to end. It is actually his first camp experience and he enjoyed every bit of it. As for me, I was very skeptical – are they going to be consistent with enrichment, safety and keeping an overly energetic lad engaged, etc etc. lots of questions. I didn't know what to expect!!!! Camp Jump-In exceeded my expectations. Healthy meals daily, caring staff, tons of activities, enrichment exercises, parent communications and most of all kids can be themselves with lots of fun. Love it!! I highly recommend parents to consider sending their child/children to Camp Jump-In 2023. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Let me rephrase that – YOUR CHILD WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. The smile on their face each evening after dismissal says it all. Shout out to the Director of the camp who has the right heart and genuinely embrace each and every child which is very rare in this day and age.Maxine

This is a wonderful gem of a program tucked away in downtown Brooklyn. I have had my 4 kids 3 boys and 1 girl ages 5,7,10 and 13 that have been attending the last 2yrs who have been given many amazing opportunities academically,sports and in the arts (including trips to indoor water park, bowling and even mini golf), Program size is super small only 50 to 60 kids. There is extremely supportive faculty and staff that are always available. I have happy kids that come home at the end of the day! Truly, they have created a global vision of our community and world. I highly recommend Jump-in, The best investment you will makeDaniel Williams

I had a wonderful experience. I started out doing the dialysis technician course which lasted for 6 weeks. At Access they have a payment plan, so you don't have to worry about having all the funds in hand. The teacher, Dr Varsally was excellent. He imparted knowledge in a way that was manageable to all in the class, must also mention that the class ssizes are small. Dr.V. ensured that all understood the lessons taught, he was always punctual to class, ready to do revision every morning on subject matters taught previously. All in all it was a good experience.Michelle Burey

if possible I will give this building zero. Why? this building in the syllabus said that the stuff will teach you 5 hours for a week, but they only teach you less that 1 hour and the other time is giving you to study by yourself. most of the people spend a year in this building but they still cannot pass that cuny assessment test. what will happen? they will go back to their own college and spend their time to begin the esl class again, and what I really dont like is this building didn't tell you that only the high level can get a test, then you have to pay for the tution for next semster, but their still cannot help you to passgre GodRedEnglish

I grew up nearby to the campus, in the local neighborhood. I spent a lot of time on the campus in my youth, whether it was hanging out in the English Department offices in Boylan Hall, or swimming in the BC Athletic Center pool, or taking theater/voice/piano classes/lessons in the Gershwin Center for the Performing Arts (now known as the Tow Performing Arts Center) on Campus Road. I found that the campus (for an urban "commuter" school) to be uncommonly beautiful. The gardens and the quad are MUCH more picturesque than other CUNY campuses, and the original college buildings are very Georgian and stately. It also has excellent facilities for a CUNY campus. During my gap years in between high school (I attended nearby Edward R. Murrow High School) and college, I took a few different classes at Brooklyn (faculty family members can attend for reduced tuition), but I ultimately ended up going to college out of state up in Massachusetts to earn my degree at a private college. That was just a personal choice, but I know that you can get a top-notch education at Brooklyn College, and I believe it and Hunter (where I also took some gap-year classes) are the two strongest 4-year colleges academically within the CUNY system. City and Queens Colleges are also good schools, but I believe Brooklyn and Hunter are even stronger and more dynamic institutions. They are the two CUNY institutions that I believe are the BEST within the CUNY system overall; and where it's possible to get the most "well-rounded" liberal arts education in public higher education.Ben Schaeffer

Campus is beautiful. Much better than Hunter which is all crowded buildings. They spend a ton on landscaping I hear. With respect to professors, I do think they care but their habds are tied. They are overworked with huge class sizes and my guess is underpaid for the amount of time they invest. It is definitwly more of a commuter college with very few people living on campus. Social life is possible. There are lots of clubs, but it is a different experience than say the immersion of an NYU or Columbia. It definitely is diverse, which brinfs me to my last point that I felt racially hunted if you will from the second I walked into the West Quad to apply. I live in the community near another CUNY school which will go unnamed. As a female, I have a right to study freely and things did not go well for me as a result here which was immensely disappointing. Also, a woman's teacher who talked about Roe v. Wade being abolished which we are living it now. It's like she foretold everything. Didn't really feel like she was pushing women's rights rather cursing us which was also a good bit of my experience trying to study psychology as a science. Never encouraged to go the route of the Medical partnership they have with SUNY which was why I went here. Hey Professors! The 50's are over. It's 2022.Jennifer Riggin

From my experience , most of the faculty do not care about it’s students , they don’t give full answers to questions you may have , they dance around them or ignore them. They ( the departments such as bursar and etc ) are unprofessional and never answer calls when they are open and supposed to. They automatically side with teachers with unfair policies that the teachers make up themselves, even though the policies suggest otherwise. Some of the teachers are extremely rude and unfair to students because they know they’ll get away with it. They just aren’t helpful , the only helpful people who actually care about helping students in this school are the people working in the financial aid office.Emani Love

Review Summary

Admissions office has one particular person who is very rude and she doesn't really help or guide you through the process.She does not make an already stressful transition any easier.(she sits furthest from the door.In front of the kiosk) Admissions also has another woman who is GREAT at her job she is helpful and very pleasant. Bursar's office Ali needs to get off his phone when dealing with incoming students.Sometimes we don't know what to ask. But if you have your head phones in and give little to no eye contact it gives off the feeling that you are bothering these people even though they are at work. -IT department is good.The staff in their are very personal able and helpful!Niacole' Dee D

One of the best colleges ever. They have many programs that will help you succeed. They even have books in the library that you can use to study if you don’t have your course textbooks on hand. Great advisors my advisor when I went to Medgar was Ms. Glenda W……… They make sure students graduate before time and on time. They offer many things. It was a virtual graduation . Dr. Lashley knows we well . I even won my traveling suitcase from them now I’m throwing it out it has water damageDeandrea Lee
