| Quite Bright | I applied to BC3 in 2008 for their 2009 nursing program and I was taking pre-nursing classes during the Fall of 2008. I had to take some classes such as chemistry and biology because it had been over four years since I took them in high school. In order to take the chemistry class, I had to take at least pre-algebra alongside chemistry. I was told that if I maintained at least a 2.5 GPA and had at least 12 credits, that I would be eligible for acceptance into the 2009 nursing program. I finished my Fall semester with a 4.0 GPA at all of my BC3 classes (chemistry, pre-algebra, and general psychology) and a 3.8 in the anatomy class I was taking at Penn State (I transferred this grade to BC3). My grades were outstanding and I was a dedicated student, yet I was DECLINED from the nursing program because I was told that my pre-algebra class DID NOT count as a credit course toward my GPA - which was a direct contradiction to what the DEAN OF NURSING told me in August 2008. The Dean of Nursing herself told me that I could take these classes and establish a new GPA with them and that everything would be fine. To sum it up, I was given false information by the staff which caused me to waste my time and money on this joke of a school. I would not recommend BC3 to any student who is serious about their education. | Campus Aesthetics: B, Education Quality: F |  | | |

| Quite Bright | I went here based on the what I had heard about how much it would help me out in the future in getting a great career. I don't feel that I will be offering much more to a company then I would have if I would have just graduated from high school. I would have been better off going to a tech school, the military or a major university, this school doesn't offer you much as for your educational value, nor does the surrounding area, it is a very lame area and school. You will be better off not going here. | Perceived Campus Safety: B, Social Life: F |  | | |

Butler County Community College, although hyped up as one of the premiere community college's in the state is one of the most awful educations I have ever received. I went there for 3 years, bouncing back between major after major, because not one professor could make me interested in anything I wanted to do.
I finally buckeled down and finished a degree in networking and PC management. According to BC3 after i graduated with my Associates in Applied Science degree, I should have been getting job offer after job offer....well...I looked at many jobs in the field i was "educated" for and to my suprise, I was so undereducated I felt like I had just wasted 3 years of my life. Bc3 does not offer an Education in computers that you need to succeed. One of the professors i had spent the first week, two semesters in a row (different classes) explaining to us what a mouse was.
Job placement is awful, great guidance, horrible execution, they have a rating of 95% job placement....what they don't tell you is that probably 35% of those 95% of jobs were related to the field you graduated in. I, unfortunately was offered a job in the local steel mill as a floor worker. But fortunately I got a job at the local cable company answering technical support calls for $10 an hour. The financial aid, is bad too, in the middle of my education, the financial aid office switched my loan companies and now i have to pay two loan payments a month. If you want to get a Bc3 education, burn you money, it's about the same equivalent. Or, just buy some of those "Dummie's" books, you'll learn more. | Preparedness: D, Reputation: D |  | |
