SUNY Cayuga Community College Reviews

275 reviews

My overall experience with Suny Cayuga Community College is that there is a warm and welcoming vibe. All the professors, students, and employees generally seem to care for one another. As someone who is graduating and transferring this is one of the biggest things I will miss. However, at least for the Fulton campus, I believe two things need to change. There needs to be some type of affordable food on campus. As a full-time student, I would be here for hours without food. The vending machines would be a nice option; however, the prices are not realistic for college students. Another change that I believe would benefit future students of Cayuga is fewer online courses. Enrollment may be low, however, why does my learning have to be impacted? I learn best in-person and this semester I was not able to do so which drastically affected my GPA. If not in-person, zoom needs to be an option. I find the best communication with professors are when you are able to speak with them directly.

Review SUNY Cayuga Community College

I am enjoying my experience (online) at CCC. I think there could be improvement with administration, specifically the speed in which they reply to various student needs. But other than that I am very satisfied!

There is no food on campus, besides overpriced vending machines with no significant source of nutrients. In my two years here, many students have tried to petition for food on campus, but nothing has happened. The clubs and activities are struggling to be present, but are trying. I really love the library and staff located there, it feels like a community. The professors I've had seem to care and want to help students succeed. With the small class sizes, they know everyone on a personal level and the topics in class are given with examples that relate to us. Overall, I would say CCC has potential more than anything. It's definitely not seeing it's best days, but the days aren't too bad.
