Campus is great, and my overall experience has been nice. It is a community college, so I understand the limited options for student life. Please keep in mind the low ratings professors receive. As a student, I have doubts about my ability to achieve here, given the limited options regarding faculty. CF offers several courses needed for transfer, which is great. However, it would be nice if they provided a better selection of professors to guarantee students' success rate.

Amazing people are very supportive of the students' well-being and safety. Great place to get started on your college path and get your AA as well as many specialties. Huge focus on students' mental health and small classes. Hoping to get my radiography degree in the long run, the testing staff helped me with a test that helped me figure out what path was best for me! Love this place so many things on campus to check out and always something going on! The professors are the best!

Going to CF has honestly been my biggest regret. I’m a first-time college student and from the very beginning I feel like I was set up to fail. Over the summer, my advisor enrolled me in accelerated online classes that I didn’t even need for my degree and never explained that they were accelerated. I ended up failing two out of four classes and was placed on financial aid probation. The next semester, I made sure to do everything right. I enrolled in four classes that I actually needed, made sure they were not accelerated, and that they were online since I’m in an online degree program. My Intro to Math class was advertised as a Zoom class when I enrolled while on the phone with my advisor. Once the semester started, I emailed the professor because I couldn’t find the Zoom link. He emailed me back apologizing and told me the class had been changed to in person only. I live an hour away, work full time, and I’m a full-time parent, so attending in person was not an option. The professor tried to help me and contacted the dean to see if I could be switched to one of his online classes, but it was denied because it conflicted with my English class. Since I couldn’t add or drop at that point, the professor gave me an N to avoid a withdrawal on my record. I passed all my other classes and worked hard to bring my GPA up from a 1.25 to a 3.0. After final grades were posted, I called the financial aid office to make sure I was off probation. They told me I was good to go and even congratulated me. The very next day, I got an email saying all my financial aid was taken away and that I was now on suspension. I immediately filed an appeal explaining everything, including the fact that the math class was originally listed as Zoom and changed after the semester started. The professor even emailed financial aid backing me up and confirming this was out of my control. Despite all of that, my appeal was denied with little to no explanation, and my full Pell Grant was taken. This has taken away financial stability for me and my child and has completely crushed my motivation to continue. The lack of communication, accountability, and consistency at this school is unbelievable. I would not recommend CF to anyone, especially first-time students or parents trying to better their lives.

we have the most incredible experience using this venue in November. It was exactly what we needed. The staff was so incredibly helpful and resourceful. I have not experienced customer service at this level in a long time so thankful to I’ve had such an incredible experience. The venue is beautiful, clean and priced well. We have already booked our next two events here with the anticipation of more incredible experiences. Thank you CF staff for making this possible.

I’ve been attending CF for almost a year. Throughout this time, I’ve made every effort to be respectful and reasonable, but my experience has been very disappointing. The level of service and support is poor many staff members seem unwilling to assist and often pass you off to someone else. When you finally reach the right department or person, you’re often met with frustration or disrespect for simply seeking help. Additionally, I’ve encountered issues with grading that appear to be based on personal opinions rather than clear academic standards, and there seems to be an overall lack of genuine care for students' education and well-being. Unfortunately, it feels as though many employees are simply there for a paycheck, not to support students. That said, there have been exceptions — my advisor, Bruno, has been incredibly supportive and one of the few people who genuinely cares and strives to help. I sincerely appreciate his dedication. Sadly, my experience with most others has left me very disappointed.do not go here
