20 Best Paramedic Programs In Minneapolis, MN (2022 Updated)

I currently attend a different college online. I have four remaining courses left of my program, three are offered spring semester while one isn't offered until fall. The one course I need that isn't available at my current college is available at Inver Hills which is why I enrolled in the course for spring. Upon completion, the course I take will transfer back to my original college so I can graduate spring. I have worked out all the details with my current college about this arrangement. I need Inver Hills to provide some bits of information and complete a form. I have spent the last week calling Inver Hills to which nobody responds. I have tried calling different departments-financial aid, admissions, etc. to which nobody responds. I have sent multiple emails to which I received only one response telling me to look at the Web site. Inver Hill's communication with students is terrible! This is ridiculous. What are the advisors and admission staff doing all day where they cannot be bothered to answer a phone call, email, or provide information?!Kat Elizabeth

I haven't even started the semester yet and have had everything that could possibly go wrong do so. They transferred my credits incorrectly which set back my registration by a few weeks, after two months my financial aid is still "processing" even after multiple phone calls being reassured it would be through the next day. Having no financial aid means my text book order was cancelled. And a week before classes start they dropped one of my courses putting me short on credits for graduation. No matter what time of day I call any department no one ever seems to answer and we play phone tag for days. All in all my experience seems to indicate that no one really cares about helping students and just goes through the motions. Happy the majority of my classes are online and I won't have to deal with anyone on campus for the most of the semester.Katelyn Niesen

I must ask those who complained about this school why did you enroll? I found my education and time here at Inver Hills highly useful. Why spend 64 credits when you can earn your 2 year degree for 60 credits and half the cost of your tuition at other community colleges? If you make the most of your time in school and do your work on time. You could get a lot out of it and done with a degree with the field of your choice. You can even take an advanced degree such as a Bachelors here. I love that I do not need to go to a main campus and take courses at IHCC. I am back to finish a few credits at IHCC and transfer to Metro State University to complete my Bachelors. Just like you shop for cars, the latest technology, and other stuff why not compare schools? Have you ever heard not to judge a book by its cover?Rachel Kelly

I will be completely honest. I did some PSEO courses here and thought it was a nice campus. There is some struggles and problems with the school, but nothing to make this not a choice for a college. Teachers are nice, most of the students are fine and just do there own thing, there is a couple of clubs and activities, and the class sizes see to be reasonable (smaller than JMHS). I think it is a good campus and should be considered an opinion and not thrown to the curb when looking for local colleges.Burner Account

What a joke… My wages are currently being levied for a semester I did not even get to attend! The Financial Aid/Counselor I worked with helped me sign up for all the classes needed for that semester but did not inform me that I had no available financial aid. By the time, I discovered this (3 weeks into class) it was too late to withdraw without paying full price. I called multiple people at the school but all refused to help or did not know how to help. Terrible practices.Nicholas Inman

Though some teachers care quite a bit the majority could care less about you and more about there personal life. Scared to walk around without being robbed. Worst school I have ever been too. Curriculum is nothing short of a disappointment. And to request help from anyone you might as well be strung up and laughed at in the main entry.Samantha Erickson

A very heart warming experience, I had open Heart surgery on July 1,2011. Between Dr. W. Miranda and Dr. J. Dearani they saved my life, That’s how I and my Family feel. Mayo Clinic it self is full of Caring, loving and respectful people. Thank You All for ALL the hard work you do to help 💜 all of usFlorinda Martinez

I went to this Community College back in the Mid-2000s. When I first started, I scored very low on the English/Math/Comprehension Reading so I had to start with the prerequisite course before I could entered the college level courses. After a year and a half, I struggled with the academic (English/Math/Comprehension Reading) and all the teachers I had at that time would just advise me to go to the computer lab/learning room for help and never did help me improve on a one-on-one basic. I felt like I was never appreciated in those classes. At that current time, D2L was starting in place so portion of the classes' discussion/homework were online. I still remember other students never helping me and always correcting or making fun of my errors in writing. There was a teacher's conference one-on-one meeting with every student and I still remembered it until this day. The last words from that teacher was, " With how you are doing in this class, you will not make it and I would have to fail you." I dropped out of Century College soon after and owed a couple thousand dollars in debt. Long story short: Then I decided to transferred to InverHills Community College (IHCC) and that was where the difference came in. The feeling and care for the students were so different. Teachers' there at InverHills Community College were able to help and assist me to improve my academic issues that I had. I still remember a teacher staying 30 minutes-45 minutes later after class just to help me everytime. I graduated at IHCC with my associate's degree then proceed onwards to finishing my Double Major Bachelor's Degree at MetroState University.John Bradley

Apathetic faculty providing misinformation at an obvious cash grab. The counselors are useless and ended up providing me with false information that delayed my education while also costing me thousands of dollars. They absolutely refused to take any responsibility and side-stepped my inquiries every single time. While I did have some excellent instructors, it was always a toss up what type of instructor I would get. Four times out of five I ended up with an instructor who either didn't care about the class they were teaching or just plain didn't have the aptitude to teach the class. Most times I ended up teaching my courses to myself. There really seems to be no standard of education that the faculty strives for. I would not recommend anyone to attend this college. Before I get a response from anyone at Century I'll make it known that I have no interest in filling out any sort of suggestion card or survey. If you really want to discuss the issues presented in my review provide me with a telephone number that I can call to set up an appointment in-person.Matt

Enroll here. I'm highly satisfied with my experience at Century College as a student. The post-secondary education community here has gone beyond my expectations to support my continued education as a transfer student. I'm thankful for the experienced instructors, who have given me a wealth of knowledge here. The support staff are excellent, including TLC, Writing Center, Math Center, Advising, Counseling, Information Technologists, and Librarians. They connect students with excellent resources outside of the classroom. The resources available here are comparable to any private institution, and cost per credit is the most affordable on the market.Louise Brask

Aryel was engaging and presented the class material in an interactive manner. It was easy to follow and relate it to everyday situations, and time in class flew by. I felt it was an effective refresher of my certification, and I walked away even more confident in my skills. Thank you!DiAnna Vetinska

Aryel was fun and helpful! She went above and beyond to make sure we all felt confident in our skills. It was the best experience I have had with a CPR/First Aid Instructor, and I’m so thankful for amazing people like her helping make the world a safer place!Alicia Siira

Terry B. Was an excellent instructor. He was interactive, informative, patient, and attentive. The class was full of people from different backgrounds and he taught to them all, making no assumptions. I enjoyed my morning! In-Pulse knows how to teach CPR!Sara Nylin

I, as along with many others (I suspect) had found AMT via Google as one of the only accelerated EMT-B courses in the Twin Cities area. One of the major reasons why this course appealed to me was because I'm pre-med, and that time is limited. The biggest hump to signing up was was the costly up-front for fee for registration for such an online-hybrid EMT-B course, but I now having gone through with it, I'm quite happy that I did. I found that besides the website's testimonials, there was not much information in regards to client experiences, and that is mainly why I'm writing this review. The hybrid course is split up into two distinct parts. The first part is online, and the second is in-person at one of their two facilities (Edina or St. Paul facility, which is of your choice). The online portion of the class tests your patience (in a good way)–having to read, watch a video-lecture (~1 hour each), and be quizzed individually on each of the 39 chapters of its EMT textbook (Emergency Care 13th edition). This isn't by any means taking away from the class because it is what you signed up for (hence, it is an accelerated hybrid course). You just have to know what you're getting yourself into–especially if you're in a time crunch. I would advise that the minimum time spent to finish the online portion of the course is around 39 days (which would be ~1 chapter per-day). I would think that anything less than that, and you wouldn't be digesting the material well enough, which is critical for passing the Final exam of the online portion. But that's my opinion. The in-person ("Skills-week") is the highlight of this course, which is a display of group-focused activities, the usage of refined-teaching methods, and the sharing of valuable real-world experiences by its passionate faculty and staff (all of whom are very experienced in EMS themselves). The in-person section of the course is specifically focused around teaching material that's required for the NREMT psychomotor exams (which is the physical application of your textbook material), and is tested on at the end of Skills-week. Due to the short and expedited nature of in-person portion of the class, you may find yourself needing to repeat these psychomotor skills over-and-over again to brand them into memory, but that is more-or-less expected, and the staff are more than happy to help you with that. Lastly, the "When do I start?" question is important (especially, for us pre-meds). Unfortunately, that one is pretty unclear. This really depends on three factors: (1) How quickly you're able to schedule your NREMT exam following course completion, (2) How long it takes to receive your state licensure after passing the exam, and (3) Whether or not the hiring company will make a hire an while you're still in training. From what I've heard, you can expect 1-3 months until then. P.S. Even though this is stated on their website, I'll restate it here–These courses fill up especially quickly in the summer (several months before hand), and you better schedule them quick if you want that.Anders Nelson

I found that Allied Medical Training was challenging, but VERY helpful in a way that the instructors pushed you to your limit and challenged you to know the material well enough to feel exceptionally comfortable with hands-on medical situation. It's not supposed to be a 'piece of cake' people! That's why I thought Allied Medical did a nice job, because they weren't just handing out certificates to just anyone. They challenged individuals to know the material well enough to feel really comfortable handling a medical situation. People really need to know this stuff if they are receiving a medical grade certificate that citizens are trusting us to know! Thanks Allied Medical Training for a great experience!Dustin Petersen

Allied Medical Training is a top notch EMS training facility. I took the EMT class starting at the end of September 2021 and then went down for my skills week in the twin cities over the first weekend of December. In January I took my National Registry test and passed on the first attempt. This is an excellent choice for EMS training since the flexibility of taking the course classroom portion online at your own time and pace and then go down for 7 days to complete the skills. The course instructors are knowledgeable and have experience in the EMS field is various capacities. Strongly would recommend to anyone interested in looking for a flexible course to get into EMS!Andrew Browne

When I was going to school before COVID, it was really great. I am on my last semester here now, and it's been a struggle. I used to be able to go to the tech departments study room to hang out with peers and get help from tutors. Now, it's practically impossible to get a hold of school counselors, there is MAYBE 1 tutor available, and it ultimately feels like none of the staff really care to much about their jobs. I would have given this school a lower rating, but I understand that this is probably the case for most schools right now. It's just a shame that the year I decided I wanted an education, COVID hits and all of a sudden I no longer get the same services, benefits, attention, and resources I used to get.Joshua Smith

Just joined the COTA program and am loving it. Very nice teachers who really care about our sucesss. It's a lot more work than doing generals but if you know what you want to do it's worth it! Biggest downside to the college is their advising and financial aid staff can be very unhelpful at times and bounce you around from person to Person with no good answers..I have gone to financial aid window a few times and been given a flyer or sent to the bookstore..very frustrating and not helpful. I went to Anoka Ramsey for generals and they had a much better more personal and clear system for helping students. But once all that got figured out I've enjoyed all of my teachers and classes.Lauren Shultz

I can't speak for other programs and their staff, but the Automotive Technician program is outstanding and the Instructors are as well. They are always seeking ways to improve and stay current with the industry. Lessons learned from their experiences in the field are passed on through a great hands on learning. I'm a big believer in hands on learning in fields such as this one. Room theory on the subject to be learned is engaging and easy to follow along. Then, lectures and knowledge is applied in the lab. Great course. Highly recommend above other schools such as UTI and those like it.Zachary Karna

This Company is TERRIBLE! First of all they were VERY rude when they dropped my son off at the hospital. Second the billing department has no idea what they are doing. They only bill out transport with no supporting documentation. With that most insurances will deny as it is not "medical necessary" when there is no supporting documentation. Then when it gets denied you reach out to them to have them resubmit a corrected claim with the supporting documentation and you are told that they CAN'T. They also make YOU do the appeal even thought they have all of the information right at their fingertips. They need more training in the medical insurance billing department as they have no idea how insurance works or how claims are processed. Each time I have called the representatives were VERY rude and disrespectful. All they care about is money NOT helping people!!! WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! IF I COULD GIVE THEM LESS THAN ONE STAR I WOULD!!Morgan H

The paramedics who came for me today were great. Myself and my 7 year old have covid. Child is at end of it and totally fine mild symptoms. I however being asthmatic and post surgery. My BP dropped. And couldn't move without almost fainting. They literally hung around in our apt until someone arrived to pick up my child. As covid positive visitors we're not allowed in the hospital. So he could not go with. Thank you guys for being calm and nice to chat to, while waiting. And making the situation lighter than it felt!Micah Pedrick

Assuming these are the folks that come and pick you up via ambulance. The two young ladies who picked me up today appeared to be fairly new on the job but they were both extremely nice, very compassionate. They barely looked out of college but I still felt comfortable with them during what turned out to be a long ride to the hospital.Mark

Worst college ever. Not only do they ignore the students when they have concerns or opinions, they do not care about whether you are achieving success or not. As a immigrant who has been to different colleges around the nation, SCTCC, you take the cup for nation's worst college. As a veteran, I will never again be more disappointed than in you as a state college failing to address your shortcomings in forcing students to buy textbooks that are NOT part of the course, and then refusing to acknowledge your faults. Even ISIS and al-Qaeda claim responsibility for the tragedies you cause, whilst you do not.James Robinson

Two year college. Multiple buildings on the campus including a health services building that used to be a full medical clinic. A good range of programs to help you get educated for a career.Daniel Dillman

The school is great if you like waiting 1-2 months for assignments to be graded. Worst professors I’ve ever experienced. They might as well grab anyone off the street to teach here.Connor Hemker

Do your research on employable fields, obviously, and go from there. The size of the U allows anonymity for those who want it, or intensely personal experiences through volunteering, groups, serving on boards, research opportunities, etc. I did all of those things while doing my undergrad at the U, and went on to happily accept an offer to do grad school there as well. I worked my butt off, but did end up landing an amazing job. I will be paying them appalling amounts of money well into my mid-to-late 40's, but that problem extends far beyond this one school. I have some of my best friends and memories from the U, as well as a great education. Highly recommended.Maureen Laufenberg

I graduated from this University. It is one of the top ranked research institutions in the country. Their pharmacy school is ranked second in the nation and believe me they deserve it. Excellent instructors and facilities. You are treated with respect by your professors. The campus is beautiful and the student body friendly. Minneapolis has a reputation as the biggest small town you'll ever know. Large metropolitan area but the people are friendly and down to earth. I love this place.Cary Miller

If you don't get weeded out in your first two years, you will enjoy the upper level courses. The best years were in junior and senior years where I interacted closely with accomplished faculty and their research. They don't give away degrees at this school. The University demands that you be resourceful and if you are used to being babied you will not survive this school or life, for that matter. I have the U of MN to thank for giving me the career I have.Nino B.

Julie in the bookstore is rude and unprofessional. They messed up my order, was charged for books I didn't have in my cart, and was very confusing and she kept trying to shove me out the door. Another lady at the desk was on her phone doing nothing important, I stood in line for 15 minutes and finally a nice gentleman asked if I needed help. Unfortunately he couldn't help but I do appreciate there being one nice person in that place. Also the guy who stands outside of the store all day who was also very rude, pushy, and made me feel really unwelcome. He shouted at me for walking up to the door and said I had to go through the line. Give him another job!! The people at the front desk are very nice and all the greeters they had on 8/27/2018 were very welcoming. Keep in mind many students were beginning their first day. So I expected to feel welcomed and accepted. The campus store is a total joke, and I wish I didn't have to give them another penny. I will be following up with the school to report this incident.Kyle Stendel

The bookstore is a joke! Rent your books online. Don’t bother with the hassle of getting them through the college. Waste of money and they never buy back the books. This past semester for 2020 they said my books had no value, but they sure sold them to me at a hefty value of almost $300 just 4 months ago! The overall communication from this school is terrible! Their internet barely worked and their printers are older than dirt. The equipment used for training is the original from the 70s so once we actually get into our jobs we will be clueless and have to be retrained on up to date equipment. Only program worth taking here is the horticultural program ran by Deb that my husband took.Megan Hinrichs

The school does not care about its students, when I went for a tour they “lost” my reservation and were very unprofessional. As a student there now they constantly cancel my classes after I had already paid for them, and the online classes cost $40 more then going to the class in person. Horrible school would give 0 stars if I could.Jake Larson

UPDATE 10/18/2018 I’m now in a Master’s program full time at another university. I am still so grateful for the excellent education I received at Normandale. It prepared me to be competitive, and successful, at higher levels. *** Original review: *** I love my school. I've been a part-time adult student, (very) slowly earning my degree, and over the years I have had some amazing classes. Some of the teachers I've had have been literally life changing: Math for Elementary Teachers was good, so was History of Rock & Roll and Fitness for Life. But I have truly found my academic home in the World Languages Department. I'm working on a degree with an emphasis in Spanish, so I've had four Spanish teachers so far, and each has been outstanding in his or her own way. The campus is compact, with most buildings connected by tunnels or hallways. The Japanese Garden is lovely, and if you're on campus for a while you can usually find a good place to get a bite to eat or a quiet place to study. It's also really inexpensive, and the Associate of Arts degree will knock out the first two years of schooling at most Minnesota universities. I'll be graduating in a few short months and moving on, finally. But I think Normandale will always have a very special place in my heart. I'm proud of what I've accomplished but I'll be very sad to leave this fabulous school.Jennifer Reddig

At Normandale the instructors are qualified in their disciplines and have a passion for teaching. The curriculum format is consistent between classes. It is modern and it works. Sure, not every Professor was the greatest and not every class was amazing but there were always resources available to help the student succeed. Overall there was, in the Science, Math and Biology programs, and enthusiasm for learning, opportunities to explore and expand those interests, and a level of Instructor-Student accessibility which I think is really phenomenal. The value of education is also very good. As a student it would be quite easy to skim by with little effort and still pass the classes, but if you are passionate about what you are doing you will not find much in the way of you rising to the top of your classes and more importantly – getting out what you put in. Also, if you are a returning student, such as myself, you will find peers with whom to share that experience and it can be a supportive environment. I've learned in my college career that money, research, and prestige are no substitute for an authentic learning. This, after two years at Normandale followed by two years at the University of Minnesota.Allen Andrys

If you are needing to get general classes done (like I needed) this is the place to go. 1000% hands down the best community college I have been to. I did take the time to look on Rate My Professor to see what the teachers were like, and boy oh boy did I strike gold. Heidi Kreutzer is a PHENOMENAL Spanish professor. Ed Stewart made Chemistry class actually enjoyable. (I feel like that speaks volumes.) Anne-Marie Ryan-Guest made learning about Economics actually fun and very relatable. Corrinne Bedecarre was so passionate about World Religions, definitely an interesting class. These are only SOME of the world-class, amazing professors at Normandale. The tutoring center was AWESOME. I spent MANY MANY hours there. Most of the time there was always someone there to help you work through classes or homework that you were struggling with. I about cried when classes moved online when covid really hit. I enjoyed my Normandale experience so much and wish I could go back, so I try and recommend it to anyone and every. Don't get me wrong, it is what you make it.. .but you have to try pretty hard to have a bad experience at this college.Riley Flom

I had a great experience at this school. After having bad experiences at Northwestern St. Paul and St. Kates, I was very nervous about going back to school. Anoka Ramsey made me feel like a person who the instructors sincerely cared about, not just a number. (as long as you communicate with instructors frequently and respectfully) Don't expect them to reward being unaccountable, as I have encountered many social loafers. I feel I received the guidance I needed to pick a career and finally find my path. I am sincerely grateful! The only complaint I have is the fitness center. Classes frequently shut down the main space, which prevents other students from working out between classes. The mezzanine is great when the main center was busy, but the equipment needs to be fixed or updated. Plus the mez was locked a bunch of times when the main center was shut down, which caused me to miss my workout entirely. There just seems to be a lot of miscommunication and lack of training with the fitness center staff. The classes and profs are the main reason to go there!!! Update: After taking my business generals at AR, I transferred out to Bemidji State and will be graduating in December with my business administration degree through online classes. Recently I had to take take a proctored Major Field Test for my degree, and again, AR saved me after three other places were unable to do the test for me. Also again, I had another bad experience through Bemidji State. They pretty much conned students into paying $90 for an "honors" society they presented on official school letterhead. They promised a leadership certificate, which I never received. It was actually a third party, for-profit, non-accredited organization. I can guarantee the school is getting money on the back-side as donations from the program. I have never felt taken advantage at AR and didn't have to pay anything as a 30 y/o. Grants covered my tuition. So if you're waiting for a reason to go back to school, DO IT. I have an accounting job lined up for me and AR started it all. AR has been the only place that really felt like home. Thank you again!Kelsey Marin

When you compare anoka ramsey to let’s say, Saint Thomas or the U, it’s pretty abysmal. It’s a very cheap school, the disability services and help they offer you is somewhat laughable. The classes are organized to be so incredibly stressful when they literally don’t have to be. Many teachers are great, but so many have watched me and other students slip through the cracks, especially during the pandemic. They don’t even serve lunch in the cafeteria anymore btw. Some of their programs are jokes, like the IHH course. Please do not take it unless you have a literal holistic job lined up or are already in the field.Rin O'Connell

This is a good place to start a college education without sinking into debt. Anoka-Ramsey has the lowest tuition in Minnesota and is one of the top ten community colleges in the nation. My oldest daughter received your associate degree a few years ago and my youngest daughter just started fall 2022. Her first day was this week and many on campus commented the parking lots have not been this full for several years. It’s good to see some normalcy again. I walked the entire campus and was impressed how well it is maintained The instructors are personable and faculty very helpful.Michael Hecker

I first off want to say that there were a few incredible instructors in my program, PHMO, who go above and beyond their normal duties to help students succeed. Now that being said I also had an instructor who thought it was funny to say "Don't get shot" when leaving class after an active shooter drill. The same instructor also completely ignored my emails, request for information to be able to an assignment he assigned and would post last minute that we would have in person class and expect everyone to be there with the 15 minute notice he gave. Also most of class he spent setting up what he was going to demo, rather than being ready for students when they got to class, told more personal stories than doing actual teaching and said inappropriate things when critiquing students work including making a comment about a fellow student's brother saying "whoa, look at those ears". So I filed a complaint and the outcome was I had to make adjustments to work around this teacher and nothing happened to him. I have also felt I've been discriminated against because of my diagnoses and retaliated against for filing a complaint. While I adore the few instructors that have been great, if I had the chance to go back in time and go elsewhere, I would. It's incredibly sad to see the lack of sensitivity that I have experienced from the administration here. MCTC has so many student from different background that sensitivity is really a must when it comes to the school environment. It is clear that the care more about the school as a business, rather than the individual students.Melissa Cook

This school is known for having teachers who bully their students and give bad grades for personal reasons. Teacher retaliation…. I have dealt with many rude professors who have tried to to embarrass me when when I asked a question in class like the other students would, but instead i was targeted and picked on which encourage the other students to pick on me. The teachers would constantly try to humiliate me in front of the class. And try to make me feel less important than the other students. I was actually yelled at by a professor in front of the classroom and blamed because my group did not show up for group presentations and I got yelled at while the rest in my group did not get yelled at. This is not the first time I have been a victim of professors taking their emotional baggage and dumping it on me. I am very uncomfortable and had to take several W (withdraw) out of my classes because of how uncomfortable I am just from being in the classroom and being bullied constantly. This is the worst school and worst experience I ever had. This school caused me so much stress and anxiety. The school is constantly full of homeless people and security guards do nothing about it. They pee in the hallways and the building constantly smells like pee. And they have mental health issues and I have been verbally attacked and threatened by them. Everyone that's is staffed at mctc should be fired I haven't met one nice decent person at all worst experience .Seablue Soon

I graduated with an Associates degree years ago, and here’s my take: I enjoyed the diversity of so many students, and the support I got from them. It’s easy to make friends there and it’s easy to find that most have a lot in common with you. That said, for many students it was just a spot. The educational quality was a mixed bag, with the adjunct professors being better teachers than those with tenure. I found the ones with tenure to be indifferent to the student body and uninspired professors. One particular professor was so rude to his students that several of them dropped the class, and he made derogatory comments he should have been reported on. I majored in the human services program, and I definitely believe the educational quality of that program was lackluster. There are other community colleges out there that are much better in educational quality, but they don’t have the same supports that diverse students need to thrive in college. Not the greatest school, but better at meeting the needs of diverse students.PAISLEY PRINCESS

I am extremely glad that I'm almost finished. Before this last semester everything went fine, but then I was told that i was taking too many credits and that they would only give me enough money for 11/14 credits I was told I needed. 3 classes! That's how many classes I was told I needed, then was told yesterday that I didn't need. I am extremely upset with them. The lady I talked to about this was not helpful, rude, and never fully answered my questions. They are money hungry. I met with two different advisers to create a schedule and made sure that they knew which classes I was taking so that nothing would get messed up, unfortunately, they still managed to mess it up. Now I owe hundreds of dollars for a class I actually need, while they paid for a class I didn't need/want. Tech colleges are nice, but there are a lot of people who will say that they will not tell you certain information so that they can get more money. The teachers are great (the ones that I've had). They are really helpful and understanding.Callie Elizabeth

I am extremely dissapointed in the school everything was fine and going smoothly my first year the following year I had a little hickup with one of my classes tried to meet with a councler and when iI finall got to have a face to face meeting the office staff seamed to not care about what I was asking they just pushed the topic to a different note while not addressing my concerns, and now I am presently in the process of trying to get a phone conference with the admissions office and have been trying since the 6th of October calling and leaving voicemails practically begging for them to call me and still not a word I have called 4 times and left messages and as of yesterday's date of 10/10/18 I still haven't heard a word from them. The teachers are super helpful when it comes to class but the office staff have single handidly ruined my collage experience. Please if you are reading this take a good long time to read the rest of the reviews and consider other options before choosing SCC as your future collageWillie Hughes

It's a garbage school that doesn't prepare you at all for the real world. Their degrees and academic standards are a joke, and I can't believe they are even allowed to call themselves a college. I have two computer degrees from there, and they aren't worth the paper they're printed on. I can't find any jobs that I wasn't able to get before the degrees, and now I'm up to my eyeballs in debt. Their job placement sucks as well; they didn't help me find either of my internships, and they're not even willing to help place me now. Send your kids elsewhere; don't let them waste their money at this so called "college."Alex Bohman

I want to express my appreciation and gratitude to the crew that was dispatched to my Arden Hills home the afternoon of March 22nd, 2021. I discovered my husband unresponsive. The EMTs and were on the scene in only a few minutes. While my husband couldn't be revived, this outstanding crew worked diligently save him. I never got an opportunity that day to thank them. You guys really are heroes.Cindy Garretson

I was appalled and shocked by the incompetence of the paramedics and filed a complaint with their board for writing a false run report. I had called them for transportation to a hospital due to my injuries I had sustained in an assault and will avoid using their service s in the futureMi C

Had a message today. The young lady did a great job. Worked on lots of pressure points and focused on knots I had. Very nice experience.Tonia Danielson

This is a good school. I took the pharmacy tech program. The professors know their stuff and prepare you to work. It is the best deal in the state, literary the lowest tuition, excellent teachers that care about your success. Why pay more for the gen eds? And consider a 2 year degree or certification for a career! There are many options. I love this school and recommend it without hesitation to anyone.Deborah Disher

I loved AR and after transferring to a four year, I realize how much I miss the small classes, accessable teachers, and MUCH lower tuition. I would highly recommend Anoka Ramsey, especially for a two year degree as most of their credits transfer, they're cheaper, and I changed my mind/degree path twice.Emily Anderson

Best professor I’ve ever had in my life works here. If you’re interested in history take some of Dawn Alexander-Payne’s classes and have an open mind. Her classes forced me to ask questions (I was young and not very ideologically flexible) that eventually led to a better perspective on life.Equites Loricatus
