Grace - 11/23/2020

Clark state is not only affordable, but it offers plenty of great resources and opportunities. The teacher's seem passionate about what they do, making them excellent educators. It's easy to listen to someone who not only knows what they're doing, but likes it as well! I would highly recommend Clark State to everyone!

Thomas - 02/11/2019

Clark State is a wonderful school to get use to college life! with easier academics and professors that actually care. The campus life is pretty boring though because the athletics are not very good and not pushed onto students to go and watch. The study areas are very quiet and offer alot of chargers and other goodies to put you on the right track. Finally the cafeteria food is very over priced but it is probably the best place to study!

Jace - 11/20/2018

It's basically an adult high school. Don't expect fun club activities or a sense of belonging here. Most of everyone who goes here are just there for classes, which I understand is the point of community college, but the professors also seem to just want to collect a check half of the time. The staff, like the people in the financial aid office, are very unfriendly and seem almost predatory with how they offer loans. Unless you want a quick degree in nursing or a specific certificate for a profession I would not recommend Clark State.

Tyler - 09/19/2018

I really enjoy my time at Clark state. It is really affordable and close to home. I have never had a bad teacher everyone there knows what they are teaching. The students there are friendly and the staff is too. The staff is very knowledgeable and always helpful and you don't even have to be one campus to get the same service they are really quick to get back with you by email too.

  8. What's unique about your campus?

    I consider the best thing about my school to be the flexibilty of the class schedule/courses. Some classes are offered online, evenings, and weekends so for someone who works a full-time job, this is very convenient and allows me the time I need to work, manage a household, and complete my coursework in a timely manner. Classes are also offered at various locations so they are even more accessible to those who live in cities outside of Springfield.

  9. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    I wish I would have went to a four year college and lived on campus. I love clark state, it is a wonderful school. I just feel like I have missed out on the "actual college expirence" by living on my own and paying my own rent. But going to a community college may be why my GPA has always been above a 3.7 on a 4.0 scale

    My school is in the middle of nowhere literally. It's off the high way and the only means of escaping is the mbta or a car.

Even with that its still so quiet.
