Portland Community College Sylvania

"Auto program seems like the only useful degree they offer here. Be real. Your Art, language, music, or psychology degree is useless in the real world. Even auto mechanic is going to be out of date in 10-15 years. As cars are becoming battery powered instead of mechanical"

"The disgusting behvaior of the Staff allowing a man's first amendment right to be stifled by others is completely unacceptable. Watching these videos of students AND staff behaving like grade school children is pathetic. You're suppose to be teaching people how to deal and live in the real world. I'm making sure everyone sees the kind of joke the colleges have become."

"Don't waste your time with PCC. The classes and teachers are great, online classes are easy if you stay on top of it. The financial aid office is a nightmare. This past year has been exceptionally hard for myself and my family (medical issues, tragic family loss) along with me having a learning disability and needing to drop classes or failing. They needed me to fill out some paper on how I was going to do better to keep my financial aid. Did as I was asked and they still dropped my classes, placed me on hold and couldn't return my books due to opening them from plastic I was charged 400 something. I did as I was told and they said if I did I could still attend. FAT LIES. Not disability friendly."

"Love the classes here, it's a nice campus, though it's a bit like being at a bomb shelter with all that concrete the buildings are made of. Lots of art classes but they do have more. The QRC is lovely and the people are friendly. If you are taking classes at PCC definitely you will love this campus!"

"Most the teachers are wonderful. The QRC is nice. The food is pretty okay. I like the class selection. Dealing with the financial side of things is a nightmare. One time my financial aid was delayed due to circumstances on their end that were out of my control. They said I was fine and my registration wouldn't be cancelled. Well, I wasn't fine and my registration was cancelled. And I got kicked out automatically of two classes I really wanted to take, and they were full so I couldn't reregister. They apologized but didn't get me back in my classes. In the future I was sure to email my teachers and ask them to let me back in if I got automatically deleted due to financial aid delays. Also now that I've graduated, they told me it would take 9-10 weeks for my diploma to arrive and it's been 5 months, and they are still telling me to expect delays. Yes I've contacted them about it, multiple times. I have literally no idea when it will arrive, but I'm not keeping my hopes up anymore. I'm disappointed, yes, but at least my credits were transferred, and hopefully the place I'm attending now won't be so weird about it."
