Love it, it was a good place to go enjoy the class would tell more people to go. It was the best thing for me in the line of work I am in, would most definitely tell everyone about it.

I’m a new nursing student and so far this college is what I’m looking for. However they don’t have many free resources like a library, food court or free coping but it’s been great.
