20 Best Surgical Tech Programs In Providence, RI (2022 Updated)

I have to be honest about this. Good college when it comes to campus design, some Professor's teaching skills, and assistance for school related issues. Although, the school teaches bad ethics. For example, sports lack discipline. They will teach there athletes to run score boards up. Up by 20 in a basketball game with 3mins to go, they will shoot more three point shots than Steve Kerr. The most alarming thing is faculty will participate in Hazing students. I've watch this with my own two eyes. Call them out on it, and they will just deny it, at least my professor did. I am currently a student there, who help form a club, in order to help students get there basic needs to become a successful student. So just remember, good campus design, some Professors have good teaching styles, good for resources, but terrible place to learn good ethics. To me learning good ethics and applying them is one of the most important, or the most important thing to learn as a student. Would not be the first school I would want to send my child to. Bunker Hill Community College, you need to become a better school. It starts with you faculty.Jason Brown

My alma mater which will always be in my heart till it stop beating (that might sound too dramatic) but hey that’s the truth! I learned a lot, got tons of experiences, got so many American and International friends, exchanged culture and collected precious moments in this place. I really miss the college, my friends, the clubs, the library, single stop, the cafeteria and most importantly I miss my coordinator when I was in a scholarship Program and of course I really miss the professors. They’re all the best!Jean Rahmadan

I do recommend this college as an affordable and easy starting point but be ready to encounter many hurdles in your way and a lot of incompetent staff. Make sure to double check everything you do here, especially the financial aid part. The professors are nice but it’s on you to actually learn the material, the professors rarely will make sure you learned anything. It’s a 3 star college. Great diversity of people, BUT absolutely no political diversity, if you’re a radical leftist, you’ll love this college.Roberto R

To start off, the academics or classes you take are more like ones in high school you take. It doesn't make it interesting unless you are in a special major such as culinary, equine, robotics, or something of that nature. The culinary classes I was in were something. Definitely had ups and downs but it may not be worth it since some skills you learn may never be used again. Your grandmother can probably be a better instructor. Now the living situations, the dorms are alright. It is difficult to live with others since you want them to revolve around your schedule but you also have to revolve around theirs. I always had bad roommates. You know ones that stay up late (up till 2 in the morning), snore, drink, smoke weed in the room, etc. It is probably just me that I can't live with others. You can change rooms but there have been less and less dorm rooms over the years. The worst part is that when you pick your room, you are given a random time to schedule. Best bet is to have the least amount of roommates as possible and having a private bathroom in your room. Don't want to be sharing the bathrooms and showers with hundreds of other people (bring some sandals and/or slippers). The dining situation kind of blows. For a school known for a culinary program, you could cook something better. There are less dining halls than when I started. The only option for breakfast is Starbucks. Lunch and Dinner is okay. Two dining options include all you can eat which is great. The menu changes every meal but you will see the same menu items a few weeks later. Everything also closes early on the weekends. Obviously, you don't want to spend so much money on take-out and delivery so best bet is get your food from a dining hall before it closes. The meal plan can be managed. You got either 7, 10, 14, or 18 meals a week. Each plan comes with flex which is a certain amount of dollars you can spend at the dining halls if you don't want a full meal or something that isn't part of a meal swipe. Best go with 10 or 14 meals a week.Adam DeLeon (CharlieChopDog1)

I miss it!! 😭😭 Graduated Nov '19 (the last fall term with trimesters). Jwu really stands out with their career focus an all the networking opportunities via professional clubs and career fairs. There study abroad options are impressive! I was lucky enough to attend a semester at sea. Taking core courses that are taught by former industry professionals makes going to class sooo worth it. Stand out professors are Prof. Rhodes, Lavin, and Boker. 10 out of 10 experience / at times, i felt like it was worth the price tag just for them. Providence is such a cool vibe. It feels like a little slice of Boston… Without the traffic and big-city-feel nuisances. (This is also coming from somebody who thought that they did not like cities at all) On Thursdays, (also because most students don't have class on Fridays), the city will literally feel like it's coming alive. Great energy around here even though there's homeless people who consistently panhandle. (You'll get to know the familiar faces and they'll leave you alone- definitely not a deal breaker). I highly recommend getting your own apartment right away because it's outrageously priced otherwise. That is, unless you're on a full ride and room & board is covered. Although, one semester of on-campus housing is helpful in an effort to make friends. This is very cliche to reference the university mantra… but "pride, courage, character, and community" really do define what the school is. I'm very proud to be a wildcat for life and am forever grateful to have the connections I made there.Andy B

I think it’s crazy that local guides can give reviews when they know nothing about the experience of actually going to the college. Johnson & Wales was the worst choice I ever could have made in a college, which is really sad knowing I chose this school in honor of my grandfather who went here, and passed away right before getting to see me go to college. Professors are the only good part of the school. All the other workers who work in the offices, the actual people who run the school as a whole – a literal joke. The entire school is a joke. Student loans? Not worth it. This is a school that does not care about its students like it portrays that it does. Do not waste your time, you can get a better education and a better college experience probably at any. other. school.Kassie Kania

What a great group of Nurses! These ladies and Gentlemen are what keeps hospitals running! The heart and soul of the medical system! I spent a few hours with this great group of people today for a test and they made me feel relaxed and cared for! I wish I could remember each of their names to personally thank them but sadly they gave me some milk of amnesia and I woke up no remembering my own name! Thanks for all the care and thanks for the great nap!Stanley Rucci

My initial pre-op experience was awful! My nurse (Betsy) walked in and immediately started complaining to me that my wedding bands weren’t off. (My fingers were completely swollen). She hadn’t even introduced herself at this point. She just started talking about my having to get them cut off. She asked why I hadn’t seen a jeweler prior to surgery. Mind you, I’m very nervous about my upcoming procedure and feeling very vulnerable as I’m laying in a hospital gown as she’s going on and on… I’m crying at this point out of frustration and nerves and she continues to prattle on about me having to sign a waiver now in case they burn me or cut my rings off. Then comes the IV… She tries a few times to get an IV going and can’t. I tell her that this is sometimes a challenge, but she sticks me and pokes with no success. (I’m still bruised a week later) She tells me that she’s going to need the anesthesiologist to do it. She leaves and in the meantime, the anesthesiologist comes in to talk to me and leaves. The nurse returns and tells me that she can’t find the anesthesiologist so I relay that I just saw her. Her response was, “Well did you say anything to her??” I’m sorry, but is it my job to communicate with the anesthesiologist about my nurse not being able to start an IV?!? The whole thing was beyond frustrating! She had no bedside manner whatsoever and clearly could not read the room when I’m staring at the ceiling crying and she’s blabbing on about her son’s upcoming wedding, etc…. Needless to say, I was grateful for the anesthesia to kick in and to get away from this whole experience. On the flip side, my recovery nurse Jenn was fantastic and kind. She was right by my side as I came to and assured me that my rings were fine . (They had somehow gotten them off) She went over the post op directions carefully with my husband and wished me well at the car when she wheeled me out. If it weren’t for the latter experience, I’d have given 1 star in my review. So thank you Jenn for making my ending much better than my awful beginning at Roger Williams.Michelle Marandola

The ER receptionist just said have a seat & someone will be you in a minute. After waiting with my leg with a long gash bleeding, I asked how long will someone come out.and just look at my leg. No response. TG a nurse came out of a room and I asked her to help me which she did and put me in a wheelchair and tended to my wound and cleaned it up and wrapped it up. Then out I went into the waiting room because all the beds were full. My wait was about 3 hours as there had been some critical cases in the ER. It was around 2 am when I said I’ll just go home. The ER nurse said you will be next and I was. Once I got into the room and laid in the bed an ER nurse came in and asked what happened and took my vitals. Then the doctor came in and I had told what happened. Once he accessed my leg and wound everything went smoothly. Got an x-ray, then the doctor came in and I had no broken bones. Then he really cleaned up my wound explained how he was putting on my wound and wrapped it up good. He was very good by answering all my questions. The wait was long but once I got a bed everyone was very attentive. I was released about 3:30 am with all instructions.Christine Messier

The surgery went great and the therapists were fantastic I was less than happy with the case manager. She claimed to have called 19 different agencies for home physical therapy and she claimed that none of them would take me as a client because of my health coverage. I had to do it it myself. It took me a week but I finally got home physical therapy under my coverage. I feel that she dropped the ball in a big way. Also the polar cooler that they billed my insurance for was leaking the entire time in the hospital and of course it leaked all over my floor at home. I was told that it was brand new but obviously that was wrong. I ended up throwing it away and had to buy one myself. The kitchen was really good though. All in all 3 stars is all I can give. You need to pay more attention to setting up essential services for a patient being discharged.Gayle Patalano

I consider myself very familiar with the VA medical system. I've been in treatment from my injuries since my blast consistently since 2014. None of my past diagnosis mean a thing here.. The gastro department here refuses to talk to the neurology department. For someone who has a traumatic brain Injury this is very important. I've been in inpatient facilities and other hospitals where's it's taken years for specialists and doctors working together to come up with a diagnosis and plan. I then move here where a student gives me a diagnosis in minutes with a prescription.. Im almost bed ridden now and have to move to another VA because of it.. I've been treated unprofessionally by my case managers where I've brought up past records and been laughed at as if I was making things up. .. Just recently they can now see my records and after almost 4 years with my health in horrible decline I now have more problems than I came here with. The blame was placed again on me for not doing a proper transfer of care. They had months of advance notice because this wasn't my first time going to a new VA. Constant blame and no accountability. Even with my records now available I'm deeply disturbed by the fact I have rarely seen a real doctor here and just see students. This place may be great for your normal aging veterans but if you have serious injuries or anything to complicated I wish you the best. Some other better facilities include Pittsburgh VA and Richmonds Va where I have received top notch care. Good luckColton Carmen

I have had very mixed experiences here. Some amazing staff that listened and really wanted to help. Powerades abusive jerks who took pleasure in triggering a flash back. It's the usual mixed bag of garbage the VA gives you these days. They force the patients to wear masks under COVID protocols. They prevent patients from having companions while receiving care under COVID guidelines. But I did not see a single staff member wearing a mask nor a face mask nor taking any COVID preventive steps on themselves. They prevented my companion from joining me but did not offer me a sign language interpreter even when informed of my profound deafness and that my hearing aids were broken. Yet when I did not respond or I did not understand they ER staff on my second visit became very abusive and did everything they could to trigger a flashback so they could put me in the non-compliant category and get rid of me. if you are a combat veteran and if you have any other option don't go there .Melissa Sterry

Providence VA Hospital has got to be the worst healthcare system I've ever seen. They give you phone numbers that don't work. They lost my MRI scans twice – I had to go back to the imaging center twice to get them. But this is the worst: I've got cervical spine issues from previous surgeries. One day I had severe spasms, lost control of my car, climbed the curb and nearly hit a group of people. I called the VA as I was scared … a nurse called me back, I explained the problem and he said the doctor would call me back but no one ever did. I had to get my own primary care doctor and get a referral to a specialist outside of their system. I had asked for a new doctor and they said they'd send me the paperwork … they never did. If you value you life …. GO ELSEWHEREZud Pataillion

I am updating this review after my procedure. They were efficient and gave the right amount of information and assurance. The front desk staff that morning were more helpful. The office sent me a gift the day after to wish me well in my recovery. This just changed the flavor of the interaction. I do hope they remain consistent because I have no doubt that the oral surgeons are highly skilled. (OLDER REVIEW) Whatever level of skill the dental surgeons have, is overshadowed by the lack of courtesy by the patient coordinating and billing staff. This is a problem with practices that grow, they get so busy; the staff gets overwhelmed, and all of a sudden, they take their stress out on the patients. The very patients that enable the practice to grow and employ them. They start losing sight of the fact that they exist to provide treatment to patients, who have their insurance companies through their dental benefits, pay the practices, and out of pocket, too. I called to provide my card for downpayment and was met with a condescending tone for not remembering with whom I was speaking prior (rudely talking down to me ("There's so many of us here!") and address: (Hon"? Diner?). They use "Ma'am" with a very aggressive tone. I am on the fence now as I need surgery but not at the expense of being treated rudely. I am not even sure the doctors read these reviews.Helga Melgar

I went to the Warwick location however You, the reader, can tell by the 2 stars their Attleborough location has earned (with the same doctors) that you will not have a pleasant experience. I do not reccomend. Simply put…choose another company! Once they have your money they will not answer your follow up questions or concerns. They do not show educational videos to the patient before surgery. It is better to inform the patient directly not their ride. They will successfully pull your teeth out but do not expect a morcel of compassion or even a sixty second comforting conversation with the doctor. Go at your own risk unless in extreme pain I reccomend choosing alternatives. If they showed compassion when a customer calls with concerns they could avoid the customer becoming upset. Don't put your children at risk hereNicholas DePalma

To say that I am impressed by Dr. Banki’s excellence and proficiency in his craft is a grotesque understatement. Every member of the staff was simply outstanding. They cumulatively made my bone graft and implant surgery a smooth 20 min coast in the park, while respecting my desire to remain awake. I hope to never have to undergo any other dental surgery again, it’s been a long road. However, if the need ever arises again, there will be no hesitation on my part to return to Dr. Banki. Thank you so much.dza264

Avoid this for-profit school! Go to ANY other trade school.They canceled my student loans without my knowledge. I got pulled out of class several times in the beginning of my semester and was told to go to the bursars office, once I got there no one could tell me what was going on with my account and they told me to try the registrars office. Same thing, no one could tell me why I was getting pulled out of class or what was going on with my account. Everything looked fine they said. After about 3 weeks of that and getting zero info…I stopped getting pulled out of class and at the end of the semester I got a $5000+ bill. They've been suing me for it for the past 8 years. Everytime I've gone to court there's always atleast 10 other people there who had the same thing happen to them. Do yourself a favor and find an apprenticeship instead of wasting your money at this "school".Braeden M.

You wont get an engineering degree from here. You'll be a technician. You will never get an engineering degree from here. They don't have it on the website, you can look everywhere on it. There's no truth to the website. They overcharge you and don't teach you what youre paying for. For the price you pay, you should learn a lot more. I'm in my third term and have yet to do anything for my major. I had to wait three terms to be able to get A CLASS for my major. It's not worth it. I AM A STUDENT AND I AM TELLING YOU. DO NOT COME HERE. You're better off going to URI or any community college!! I hate it here.Heather Vias

I can not recommend enough not to go here. The administration is a joke, the amount of absolute asinine rules that are put on place make this place nearly unbearable. If you’re considering this school please put your money elsewhere. You’ll be charged $40,000 a year just to have a sub par education. Food is said to be good but is close to inedible. Internet speed gets slowed to a crawl on a daily basis. This place is beyond untransparent when it comes to any serious information that you need. Go somewhere else.Zander Knightick

I just had the worst experience ever at this Stop & Shop this afternoon. As a lifelong customer I've always enjoyed shopping there but today I went to there to shop and to cash in a ten dollar winning scratch ticket, but no clerk was stationed at the service counter so I notified an older female employee who rudely snapped "We can't cash in tickets." I didn't believe her so I requested she get the manager who eventually came out and said that a cashier would be at the station in minutes. I thanked him and shopped, then went to the service counter where the manager himself was assisting an older woman. When he saw me he smirked, turned around and left the woman and the area, going first to a cashier, then off to his office. That is the rudest manager I ever met!Americo Ventriglia

Worst Uncleanly market I have ever been in. Every time I go there they have no product on shelves, the store is in disarray. Very poor management in ordering product. They blame it on covid but if you go across the street to Shaws the shelves are stocked, the store is clean, the staff is friendly and helpful, and they're never out of a thing. but for some reason that Stop & Shop can't seem to get it together. I BLAME IT ON POOR STORE MANAGEMENT. Save your time. Because guaranteed they won't have what you're looking for and you'll have to end up going across the street anyway the way that I do every single day. Now I learned my lesson.Yvette Wilburn

With the exception of some wonderful employees I've encountered, this place is horrible!! It looks dirty, facing is never done. Ice cream on pallets sitting out melting (yes, the containers were very soft) and with no employees around. Salad bags look like they're going bad. Never see more than one person in the customer service area helping quite a few people in line. With the exception of picking up prescriptions, I'll never shop this location again, I'm go to Shaw's across the street. Whoever the management (and upper management) is for this location needs to be fired.Pam Kop

Today was a day in the books it was day 4 of temp issues. The air conditioning has been blowing continuously on top of our heads in the classroom causing myself to get sick triggers my sinus issues in addition to outdoor temperatures not exceeding 58 degrees. When addressed to correct personnel today at day 4 after going to instructors thursday and friday nothing was expressed or resolved concretely. Today [Tuesday] the issue was addressed, however the attendance clerk interrupted the Director of Nursing program while on an alleged conference call; although in font of witnesses I asked her to have Ms Amanda speak with me when she was finish and what class I was in. Ms Amanda barged into our classroom, interrupting our lecture like an angry tyrant yelling about thermostat issues, as if comfortable learning conditions weren't warranted. I was trying to explain but of course she wanted to exit the class and I followed as she asked. We get to the office and before i can say anything she turns to me and begins to spew off at me, I say woah woah woah relax! I was offended by her disposition, I am a student trying to learn and there are obstacles hindering me with distractions of temperatures being set at 40degrees. It was then expressed to me lies because she wasn't aware I had already taken steps of chain of command before addressing the issue. She was very dismissive and condescending and although I had layers of clothing on already, I asked why they couldn't inform us of the misfunctioning of thermostat issues. Amanda states she "doesnt have the time with all the other things she has to do" instead of properly informing students who pay tuition MONTHLY of the inclement temperature within the learning environment. I was assertive in my rebuttal and state "isn't that your job" but of course that makes her angry, and in retaliation she threatens to reprimand me with a verbal warning, then proceeded to dismiss me to class pointing her finger like i was her adolescent child (excuse me) I'm perplexed as to who cares about the students, as we are being taught by so called nurses who obviously lack training in higher education and it shows. Allow Amanda didnt have time to properly inform us of the civility of the happy medium of learning temperatures she had the time to be condescending as usual and make a mockery show us how our uniforms should be worn. For the life of me, it baffles me with what they have time for when they arent blowing smoke up your….TaySlick

I attended the Lincoln tech nursing program in Lincoln Rhode Island. My experience there was alright. I did feel like a few of the mods I had to just read the book because in mod 2 we had a teacher start out teaching the mod and then someone else came and made the test and it was nothing we were taught. In mod 4 we had a teacher accept another job and she was supposed to finish out our mod she kept missing our classes and she would be teaching us chapters way in advanced we would be testing on chapters 10,12,15,16,17 and would be learning chapters 30-35. I can tell you this I did have some teachers that were amazing. Mrs Avelar was the best one she was there if I had any questions. I can also say when I decided to start pursuing my RN Melissa Gosset contacted me and asked me what I needed for her and offered to run through info with me. I graduated in December of 2019 shortly before the pandemic began. I never got to have a graduation ceremony we ended up with a cheap “virtual” graduation that just showed our name on a power point that someone read off of. I received a tassel for the wrong year in the mail. I never received my lantern. None of us were able to participate in the graduation yet they had one person who actually worked there participate. The final straw has been that NO ONE will accept their credits. I am not able to transfer anything over to any school accept another technical school. I want my Nurse practitioner and don’t wish to attend another technical school. When I met with admissions I was told they were accredited and that I would be able to transfer credits to other colleges and that is far from the truth. Funny I called corporate before I posted this review and had to leave a message and never received a call back. But after I posted it in google I receive a reply. Why because you had to explain why you are misleading? Still not being truthful!Rebecca Spencer

I am a post grad nursing student. I will say Lincoln Tech had a very solid, strict, and structured nursing program when I attended the school. Mary Ben who is no longer with Lincoln was a tough but great director or nursing students who ran a tight ship. I found the staff to be helpful during my time there. Now that I am a graduate I can’t believe how unhelpful this school is, I have called about info regarding LPN to RN program, received no help, I called requesting my transcript, was not assisted. What Lincoln tech doesn’t tell you as a nursing student is that majority schools will not accept Lincoln’s credits because there not actual credits for the classes that we worked so hard to pass, they are hours achieved in the classroom. Now that I am trying to do my RN I’m almost having to retake the entire nursing corse over which is devastating and frustrating to me. Don’t get me wrong becoming an LPN has changed my life for the better in so many ways an is still a very rewarding career. However, a few years into the field I now want to do more and it’s almost impossible due to the credential situation. Just be aware when choosing your nursing school, so you don’t run into the same problem I’m having. Other than that Lincoln tech was a good nursing program while I attended.larissa cirino

Liked this store very much and would have given it five stars until recently. The store area is still very nice, well stocked and the lines are short to non existent because they keep things moving. My issue is with the pharmacy. As of late they seem to have fallen off. I tried to refill a prescription via their app more than once and each time it was not received. Called and made the request via their automated and again, nothing. They say that there are no refills one minute, then the next there are. Once, I called my provider to ask for a refill to be sent. The provider informed me that they had sent enough refills to last until my next visit, which was scheduled for a few months in the future. They send constant texts/robocalls about waiting prescriptions. Turns out, they are not the ones you need. It has become rather frustrating and I must admit that I am now thinking of switching to another pharmacy.Sharlene Smith

This is THE BEST pharmacy in the area. The pharmacist and her staff are fantastic. I have the same 4 prescriptions from MA every month and with every other pharmacy, there are always random problems where no one knows what to do. So, the hardworking and experienced women that run the Atwells Walgreens pharmacy take a big weight off my shoulders 2x a month. They know what they are doing and it shows. Thank you!Zee K

Scheduled a vaccine booster for today with days in advance. I show up and turns out that the street that leads to the pharmacy, and the pharmacy itself are both closed (at 5 apparently) even though they scheduled me at 5:30. I received no cancellation or even a call to let me know not to come in. Trash, avoid at all costs. Also, please update your hours so people don’t waste time going there for nothing.Celeste A

I went to that Walmart because I wanted a Microwave. Kohl's , was my first intention to buy a Microwave because I seen one online that I looked and it was good in price, buy I got there at Kohl's, they didn't have any Microwave ovens, so I decided to go to Walmart and found a nicer one. The only problem I had is when check-out. The credit card machine was not scanning the chips on the cards. The cashier insisted that the machine was working fine and I kept telling her something's wrong with the machine, and she saying no it's not. So I pushed my carriage to the other register in the card went through with no problem. Then, she had other people going through the same problem. She did not call anyone for assistance about the problem that she was going through with the credit card machine.Steven Jones

♥️me some Walmart 😂 I miss the 24 hour ones 😢. One thing I would change is the managers attitude in regards to my request to view 2 laptops before buying one the night I did it shouldn't matter it was 30 minutes before close sorry to trouble you. The employees were quite helpful and did search upon my request for what I was wanting to buy before making my choice of laptop and the help button in car audio actually worked 😂 someone came within 2 minutes and was very nice and helpful to and for me. I found everything but my car 12v inverter I needed. Scored a gateway laptop for 179.99 on clearance great deal thanks Walmart but I really wanted the Asus 17.3 " vivobook for 299.99 the manager wouldn't search for 😢.Ryan Karvelas

The Walmart in Attleboro MA, is ok. Not much on the shelves when the month starts everything is well maintained but 3 weeks after is all empty. Employees are really bad there no good customer service cashier are great but the only have one or 2 at a time. The lines exceed 20 people almost every day, self check out not to good no one helps. Also it looks like the managers they have don't really care for their store. They talk all the time by the registers while there are 20 customers waiting to be helped while the cashier stress. It seems to be a very stressful job when you have the supervision not helping the employee or at least schedule more cashiers .Ivan Lugo

I had a procedure done today by Dr. Schechter. I would like to thank each and everyone of you for providing me with the best care ever. The receptionists, the nurses from pre-op, the Nurse Anestestist, Anesthesiologist, OR nurses, nursing assistant, recovery room and discharge nurse were very professional and caring. I can't thank you enough for making me feel cared for and safe. Sincerely Virgílio LisboaVirgil Lisboa

Honestly, I enjoyed my time. My biggest grievance was that the Disability Support Services didn't specifically target any particular disability. They offered "support" that was not particularly useful for my mathematical disability. Besides that, I met so many great professors who were inspirations for me. The events available to participate in were fun too. I liked Visiting Rep Stage up until that Joseph Ritsch said something offensive to me. Besides that, I felt that Howard Community College provided me with an opportunity to meet new people, enjoy great food, and I guess expand my horizons. Despite the many personal struggles I faced at this community college, I am glad that some professors were understanding and actually took the time to explain things thoroughly to me so that I would not fail. Overall, HCC is a good place to begin ones journey towards a higher education!Nigel Young

Not your average community college, it feels like it could be a private university if they added some dorms and I love the architecture, its very modern. I love it here all of my professors have been great. Just beware of the math department, my experience with math at this school has been a little rocky, I've only had a couple of good professors out of all the classes that I've taken.James Williams

This is an excellent college, in which professors really know how to teach and to relate to students. Most students will transfer to four-year colleges and so will save a lot of money. I have talked with university professors. They have a great deal of respect for Howard CC. One especially noted the excellence in advising students.Mike ODonnell

Howard University is in the process of changing, improving and increasing their level of services they offer their community. GoodLove this place. Had a good experience here. Enjoyed the homecoming Saturday with my daughter. I missed my high school's homecoming but enjoyed Howard's. Sorry DCs Dunbar had to go to the Mecca.Great institution for higher learning. Homecoming 2019 was fun, except for the score of the game.This campus was really nice. The college presentation was concise and thorough. The presenter seemed knowledgeable and engaging.It seems to be a great place offering a lot of opportunities for young adults of color. Our tour guide was a young lady who is a senior at the school and she was so articulate and presented the information in a way that conveyed her knowledge of the school and also how much you really enjoyed going there. The students on the campus all seemed very happy and friendly.Pratima Sarojwal

Today I went to drop off my niece who’s continuing her second year of pre-med. the experience was amazing. I love how supportive the staff is. They have smooth transition process during moving in season. They were very well organized and had keys, moving carts, parking permits and guidance everywhere. I noticed that minorities are the majority at Howard. Diversity is embraced and everyone is welcomed and respected. I loved how they have sanitation stations everywhere fondue to Covid-19. The application process is easy and they financial aid staff is very helpful. Howard university os affordable and well known school. The dorms are spacious and private. Kitchen is well organized and the bathroom is huge. Campus was a little crowded because it was moving in day, but it was so organized that by 2pm everyone was situated and the streets were cleaned. I recommend this university.Madame Dabo

I went to the dental school to be evaluated for new dentures. The students and professors are very knowledgeable. They treat you gently and respectfully. As they evaluate and work on you, they explain everything that they are doing. I've been going there off and on since the 1980's. They have walk-in service also. Call for information of days and times. Best of all the fees are very very reasonable. And if you need financial help they try to help you obtain it. Bottom line; help the students and help yourself.Monica White-Gant

I am not a college student here, but I have gone here for testing in the past. The facility is clean and accessible. As a South Shore resident considering further education I looked into school here and found that tuition prices were higher than Massasoit Community College for no apparent benefit, furthermore, I find what they have done to nursing students in 2018 to be abhorrent and unethical, a management crisis that has wasted many hours of young students' lives.zani

Got my business management degree here. There was some professors and councilors here that really helped me and gave me a direction and a different outlook on life. Theres definitely some classes that are boring and you don’t really learn from. For the price and for the educators that actually help I think it was a good value.Abraham Hoti

Went to get my transcript for a job. I had an old balance I new nothing about. This school never sends bills. I had to ask every semester when to get the bill. Most schools let you know when monies do. Not here. So unprofessional. Professors were good tho. Just not the accounting office.Steph Vett

We spent a full day on Campus, including a tour. The art museum was amazing, blew us away. The 5th floor has some of the most spectacular views. Awe inspiring views with the changing colors of leaves and the lake etc. Oh, and it's free. The gardens were fantastic and we could have spent hours there. We walked around central campus and then had our prospective student tour. The guide was excellent and very informative. Made a stop into the bookstore to buy some gear. Great selection of clothes, especially upstairs.Lance Perry

Ithaca is beautiful and Cornell's architecture is marvellous! The mesmerizing waterfalls, the pretty Fall and the my favourite- snow in and around campus are main attractions. The campus is clean, well connected by TCAT buses and almost every part is wheelchair accessible and has braille. It's an amazing place to be in!Shivakshi Gupta

Visited the Ornithology Lab, it was FANTASTIC! Great displays and information. We did a small walk in Sapsucker Woods, great too. Don't forget the bug spray!Susan Bowen

This review is strictly focused on the Brown University campus, and not the actual curriculum, because we have almost no shot of getting into the University. This campus is so historically gorgeous in architecture, location and layout, it really surrounds you. The capitol city of Providence is the background for the entire experience. I fell in love with Brown, and I've lived close by for 35 years. ❤️Michael Mitchell

Beautiful traditional architecture in the seemingly endless campus grounds, stately brown stone buildings, meticulous landscaping and wide-open green spaces. Thayer street is lively, and hosts a variety of small casual restaurants and cafes featuring cuisine from 3 continents (at least). The area feels quite safe, well maintained and pleasant in every way, compared to most other areas in Providence.Dilyana Ocetova

Brown university- An amazing Ivy League school historical to the city of Providence. They have one the best architectures. Campus is super clean. Make a trip on the weekend when parking is easily available and if not then you should be able to find nearby the campus for $3-$15. They have around 7 public lots available for parking. They have tonne of restaurants in the vicinity.krutartha shah

I applied to RISD as an undergrad, got in, but didn't go. I chose a small LAC in Massachusetts instead. I'm glad I didn't go to RISD actually. Re-applied to RISD again as a grad student, got in again, but once again, I didn't go, I chose to go elsewhere for grad school. I don't know exactly why, but my instincts told me no to RISD a second time, so I listened. Providence is a nice city, ❤️'d that RISD has an academic consortium with Brown, & the RISD campus and museum are lovely, BUT, I just didn't go. Worked with someone from RISD in a creative capacity in the Theater and we still have a very strong friendship to this day, BUT, I still think I made the best decisions for my education and that meant NOT going to RISD.Ben Schaeffer

I received my mrs degree here in 2012 to a guy a couple years my junior in everything but earnings. I do believe my degree prepared me with the critical mind to discern between silk and polyester as well as truth and bull ****. In all seriousness, this is a wonderful school for those who know what they want to do, but need to be challenged to be more exacting and deliberate. All of my peers in design fields landed excellent jobs almost right away and have continued to succeed post graduation, husband included. I would stay away from the fine art programs unless you are independently wealthy, but that's always been the case for all of human history.Arman Negahban

This is a very nice museum with a great collection of varied art. Definitely worth visiting. 4 stars due to the confusing layout. I've never been at a museum where the people there couldn't figure out where they where supposed to go to get to exhibits before. Other than that it was great.Greg

The utter disregard and unprofessional approach of the Ridgeland campus of Holmes Comunity Collage is nothing short of repulsive. I'm in the process of trying to completely withdraw for this school and ovbiously they're too concerned with getting my collage tuition, that my parents worked their asses off to save for me, for Mrs. Judy Hemphill (the Adminissions Representitive) to answer my email regarding the process that I need to go through to completely withdraw myself from this mediocre school. There is an appalling disregard for the situations of students, let alone the "help" they want to falsely advertise that they provide. Don't bother wasting your time trying to get in contact with anyone after you have enrolled, you'll rarely get a response. This school may look nice on the outside, and my put on the front of being a fantastic collage, but I assure you that it is nothing short of a sorry excuse of a middle school that's trying to pass itself off as an Comunity College. Do not waste your time applying, and don't lose your hard earned money on this pathetic excuse for a school.Lukas

This school well the Goodman campus at least is a JOKE! Attempting to deal with the unprofessional staff is very time consuming and frustrating. One can only assume some of the women in the admissions and financial aid office are hardly qualified nor do they appreciate their jobs, but that is merely an opinion of mine. The staff does not have a sense of urgency they complete things at their leisure. So if you have a time sensitive matters this is it not the school to attend. Every time I call to speak to someone I get rude individuals. Avoid this school attend JSU instead. I wish I would have submitted my information to JSU instead I would have completed 2 semesters by now.Jasmine Williams
