City Colleges of Chicago-Wilbur Wright College

Look community college is a great way to save money these days since college is so expensive. Choose Wright College you won't regret it. The teachers and staff are so nice and understanding and it is a great school to start off your college education.

Being an online student is good but don't expect to make a lot of friends that way since the only interaction you will have with others is on Zoom.

Go for the Engineering and Computer Science Pathways, it is the best deal you can find in the Chicagoland area for engineering and computer science majors

Some faculty are not so inviting however, the majority are looking to help you grow and succeed

I like that I was able to get my Associate’s degree in a much more down-to-earth setting. The teachers and faculty are there to help you every step of the way and the environment is built to help you succeed. Being a community college, I’m also glad that I could take all of my general education courses for a much lower cost than your typical university.

The only thing I didn’t like is the commute. City Colleges only offer certain classes at certain campuses, so if I wanted to take classes that were specific to my major, I had to drive 45 minutes into the city as opposed to the campus that was 5 minutes away but didn’t offer the classes I needed.
