Pikes Peak State College - Downtown Campus 100 West Pikes Peak Avenue, Colorado Springs, CO 80903

"My narcissistic mother works at Centennial... she admitted to abusing me to DHS when I was a kid. They didn't take me away from her. She said to my face "it wasn't a conviction, it was just a red flag." She had the record sealed and got away with child abuse. She was also charged for the abuse and neglect of my older sister, also sealed. There are minors who attend classes. I don't recommend it for several other reasons, including the abuse and discrimination and misinformation I have endured and received from my instructors, the Dean of Students (Nichole), campus police and other staff. These are not inflammatory statements or claims. I have records and video/audio documentation of the absolute Hell I experienced in the fall of 2022, and prior. You can attend any community college in the CCCS system."

"I got my Associates in Psychology mostly at this campus and I am really impressed with PPCC (er, PPSC now I guess). They had small classroom sizes, knowledgeable professors, and learning was pretty darn fun here. I'm not sure what they are now, but the costs of tuition when I attended were a fraction of what UCCS charges (which is also an awesome school, but as to be expected of a university, it's a bit pricey). I had a great experience here and would recommend!"

"My favorite PPCC campus! Building & classrooms are nice. Not too big & crowded, and a lovely art gallery (open to the public & free!) that shows different Colorado artists and sometimes student/instructor artwork throughout the year! All of the instructors, staff, & campus police are very helpful, kind, and knowledgeable! I like all of the campuses, but this one by far is my favorite!"

"Awful administration. Campus police tried to remove me from campus 4 days in a row when I tried to apply. They harassed me so much I had a seizure and had to be taken to the hospital. Never got an apology. Now I got a ticket from one of the campus police whose name I did not catch in the first 4 incidents and didn't file a timely complaint about him. A littering ticket for leaving my bike at the campus. I'm dropping my classes because they are all at this campus. I already filed complaints about campus police. And the harassment continues. How can I got to this campus when they are actually worse at this campus? There is literally no way to deal with harrsassing campus police. There is never even apology. Some of them need to be barred from all college campuses."

"This is the best campus at PPCC. If you don't mind the overcrowded hallways at Centennial, keep going there. Otherwise, the downtown campus is much more quiet and relaxed. I try to take all my classes here."
