Queensborough Community College

"I’m a student at Queensboro. The administration office is a mere joke, they don’t respect people’s time but will take any money thrown at them, enrollment is easy and staff is quick to help you before enrollment, no surprise there.. but as soon as you run into an issue where there’s a “hold” on your account from enrolling into classes, especially since I already had paid it off, it’s almost impossible to get anyone on the phone at any given day, administration claims that there busy with high volume calls when in reality there just walking around in the hallways getting lost with there unwashed coffee mugs, besides the disrespectful and entitlement-tone-of-voice every time I ask any question from any person within the administration office, I always leave with a sour taste in my mouth that is provided to you when speaking to the staff. I got 1 good call out of 10 within the last 6 months of enrollment, every time I try to get transferred, the call gets dropped too, I’ve also try using another phone, same issue, same experience. Going forward, the administration is the front of any institution, if this is the experience I have to go through every time I call, from being hung up on to the constant sarcasm through communication, try to figure everything out your own way I say, especially when advisement is of no help, seems like there is no communication at the offices within this institution when I keep getting transferred back to the same department from where I was transferred from. Makes no sense, prepare yourself before you enrolling here. If this is how the Education system works, sign me up for a job there, it’s a lot less work then running a coffee shop, “at least our mugs are washed”"

"had a really good experience here! transferred from a 4-year college and was definitely nervous at first, but QCC set me up very well to continue my education. nice atmosphere and campus, although be prepared to walk uphill! met some really interesting people here— including my lovely bf! If you’re considering restarting your education, getting another degree, or are coming in as a freshman i would highly recommend qcc— the experience is what you make of it!"

"Wonderful professors! some professors are very dedicated to their jobs and are very passionate about teaching. Others may be doing the bare minimum. Campus is nice, very hilly. Food options in cafeteria are expensive and average. Would recommend exploring the options outside of campus. Student body is very diverse and you’re bound to meet some amazing people. Met my amazing gf here!"

"great staff for the most part! loved my art professors and my physics profs too! although, please more funding for the art department :( i wish there was at least more resources like the science building.. esp restroom upgrades & such."

"An excellent community college. Most professor I have encountered, are very helpful, pleasant and knowledgeable. The campus itself is nice, spacious and well kept. There’s paid parking on campus and plenty of free street parking in the surrounding blocks around. They also have a good food/drink selection at the cafeteria."
