    Will learn a lot

    I believe I can learn alot at this school. There's alot of hands-on trainning as well as small size classes that will benefit in personal assistance from instructors.
    Tips for prospective students

    Southwest is not only a good choice, it's the best choice. They have at least several locations and they have a diverse student population which stands out as an example saying that everyone from whatever background, is welcome! Most people start off at community colleges and Southwest is one of the best college choices. Most graduates work for many health agencies and you could too if you take the chance!
    Great for these types of students

    Students who plan to go to school for an Allied Health career, Southwest is the Best!

    Am learning a lot

    I've learned many things from the classes I've taken at Southwest. For two semesters I have been here and gained a broad amount of information to help me further my education to a four year college.
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy many things Southwest has to offer. The small classrooms are good in a more one on one learning experience. The campuses are great. They provide computer labs, libraries, game rooms, and sitting areas that help me relax and do work.
    Bang for the buck

    Southwest is low and affordable. They provide financial aid and fasfa.
    Tips for prospective students

    Prospective students should take use of the work facilities provided by southwest. They have tutors on call, computer labs, and libraries all to help with your education. They should also participate in the activities such as poetry, movie night, game tournaments, and guess speakers.
    Great for these types of students

    Southwest is great for students for all varieties. Whether just getting out of high school, full time workers, older people striving to come back to school, people wanting to get their Associates degree, a stepping stool to a four year, or just someone who is looking to gain more knowledge. The teachers are very understanding if you are needing to work around certain schedules. As a softball player my teachers help me plan when I take tests, make up work, and work around my games.

    Deciding to go to Southwest Community College has been a life altering situation. The access to classes that you need and the ones that are offered are not to far off, as far as the campuses you have to choose from are concerned. Some of the classes are now being offered more online, for the people that like that sort of thing.
    Tips for prospective students

    Am learning a lot

    The teachers at the campus I go to (the Macon campus) really take the time to let you figure out what you are doing wrong but they give you enough respect and room to get things done your way. I really like the pace and the style of many of the teachers here.
