I love the school. I heard that it's more fun and active during their fall semester. I'm not a college student there yet but I will be this coming up Fall. I'm so excited!

I loved Cincinnati State. It is a great way to quickly earn your degree. They offer plenty of services to help you find a job or transfer to another college. The professors are very knowledgeable and really care about you as a student. The class size is small so if you have questions it is very easy to ask your professor.

Beatrice - 02/11/2022

Over all is one of the best things I've could have done in life. It's great! They are very on hand. I don't have a problem when it comes to getting help. The tutors are special. Even though I'm disable, its ok because no one makes fun of me. I feel normal and my grades are wonderful.

Mary - 12/06/2021

I chose Cincinnati State as the place to start academic career before transferring to a publid 4-year university because it was close to home and far more affordable than a traditional 4-year school. I found the classes engaging, student social life satisfying, and the quality of academics comparable to the courses I have taken since transferring to the University of Cincinnati.

  7. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    I think the worst thing about my school is the administration does not seem concerned with student success or achievement. It seems like many students are just going through the motions of school with no real goals or plans of action. Lucky for myself, I was able to take control of my college career/goals and now I feel like I have a bright future, even if I did make a few mistakes along the way. Unfortunately, many students drop out or give up because they just feel defeated. The path to success is rarely a straight line.

    Cincinnati State has some of the most challenging and engaging technical programs in the state, and also has one of the highest post-graduation job placement rates in the state. The technology available to the students is both abundant and advanced, unlike other community colleges I have visited.
