I love Aims community college. They provide multiple resources for any support a student may need. My only problem is the city as the campus I attend may be nice, it is not in the nicest or safest area; however, the teachers and level of education make it all worth it. Everyone is very friendly and truly has your best interests at heart. I know this as classmates are always willing to help and the teachers can always be reached.

Aims Community College is a great transition school from high school to college. They have a variety of programs but specialize in 2-year degrees. If you are looking for a specific degree, Aims may not be the place for you as classes are limited at times. However, the classes are of good quality, are low cost, and allow for various classroom models to accommodate every student. They have amazing transferal services and value mental health.

Angela - 12/31/2019

I picked the BEST school ever. Faculty, students, staff they go the extra mile for each other. ONE big huge family looking out for one and all. The classes are perfect, as per the course, the curriculum covers the field to the working world. The instructors knowledge is bountiful to the field, they know their business. I chose the best community college ever.

Rebecca - 12/18/2019

I love Aims Community College, it is the best college I have attended. The college is very much about giving back to the students and the community. Aims strive's to get the students involved, giving everyone a sense of community. The instructors are easy to access and the classes are small. This makes it easier to learn.

Ruth - 11/08/2019

I really like that the professors sincerely want their student to succeed and will help student understand difficult material. I found that the small professor to student ration per class is helpful. I also like that Aims is affordable and offers a lot of scholarships, especially since I am paying for my own education.

Reiley - 06/17/2019

Aims community college allowed me and my classmates to take concurrent enrollment at my high school despite being a small school. The teachers they allowed to teach the courses were the best that we had so that shows me they paid attention to who would be able to relate the material well. they also stopped in to ensure that the teachers were teaching the course material well and that the students were engaged which added a lot to the attention they paid to us.

Berenyse - 05/16/2019

Aims community collage is such a worm friendly environment. The teachers are great classes are not to big and there is multiple resources Aims provides. Aims always likes hearing student feedback. Aims is really involved with each of there students and has made collage so far an enjoyable satisfying experience.

Eduardo - 01/03/2019

My overall opinion of Aims Community College is positive. The school has many differentiating campuses that students can go to, whichever is more convenient to go to. Many students do not know where to begin when it comes to college, Aims offers a variety of courses that help those who are not sure of what to do with their futures, at a low cost compared to universities. Aims have substantial transfer programs for those who would like to get an associates degree and then move on to a bigger university or college. The staff members are very friendly, from those who help out struggling students to those who carry common conversations with anyone that comes into interaction. The professionalism that is portrayed throughout the staff is well noticed, as many of the members carry themselves in a manner that is both respectable and fun. The facilities are always well kept, clean, and open. The cleanliness of the campuses create a welcoming environment to those who enter. The locations are always in close proximity to eating establishments, and the main campus has a fantastic gym that many go to. The safety and security of the students are always well in hand, as there is always campus security and local sheriffs on campus, giving a sense of wellness. Overall, Aims Community College is quite the college for those who are looking to begin and/or continue their education as a lower budgeted cost, while still being able to receive a quality education.

Jovohn - 11/06/2018

It is a great community college with various class time with teachers who are always there to help and get that one on one experience. Also although it is a community college there is a lot of activity's to do and people are always asked to be involved.

Briana - 10/24/2018

I honestly love this school. It's great, everyone is friendly and very hands on. They throw out a lot of different opportunities to gather more students and more group adventures. The teachers are all very helpful. They listen, they get back to you as soon as they can. They are very sweet and are very understanding. Aims is such a great school, and I'm so glad I choose to go there and get my nursing degree.

Katherine - 06/27/2018

It is a good, affordable school, with good professors that strive to teach the students in their care. The courses are well prepared and professors are accessible. Online courses are as dull as online courses anywhere else (I've done them at other colleges, its the same thing for less money), and in-seat classes at the Loveland Campus are of good quality. I would recommend AIMS as an affordable way to get your AA or a vocational training/certificate.

Rachel - 06/01/2018

I have only just begun my Aims experience but am excited to get back into school. Aims is an incredibly affordable option, which was one of the main reasons that I chose this school to begin with. I also knew that there would be smaller classes sizes, which makes learning and building friendships a whole lot easier.

Heather - 05/25/2018

Not your ordinary community college! Aims Community College provides outstanding support for all students from personal needs to educational needs. Students do not have the opportunity to be bored with the large variety of class options and student activities that we can partake in at any given time. Students have the opportunity to be involved in many extracurricular activities and have ample student support services to choose from. Program options are available for students that have just graduated or adults seeking to change their career path. Options for different medical fields, to aviation, to agriculture. Aims Community College is passionate about students, student involvement, and the community they are in and often give out information regarding how to me more involved. Teachers always have office hours posted or make sure students are able to reach them with any questions and many teachers will provide extra tutoring if needed at times that are more convenient for the student. Aims is an accredited school by the higher learning commission which focus on quality assurance and institutional improvement. Being able to attend Aims has been a great opportunity, the faculty have always been supportive with answering questions and accommodating meeting times for busy schedules. I know I can trust that I will be getting the education I am paying for. I can personally give my education experience at Aims Community College four stars for outstanding services and support not only to me as a student but to the community they serve in. I am thankful for my experience at this College.

Aims Community College is an amazing college. The professors are not that hard to contact. They are always happy to help students in every type of situation. The campus is small and easy to get around. The on campus Bistro we have is amazing with serving students from open to close. The employees who work for the Bistro are amazing, generous, hard working people. Faculty members host events every semester to get students involved more with in groups and other activities. Aims Tuition has not gone up in the past decade make it affordable for everyone. Overall, Aims Community College is an excellent school to enroll in.

I have gone to the school for one year and have had an overall great experience. I enjoy my teachers, learning environment, and outside activities the college hosts. Most of the teachers that I have had have been extremely committed to the students success in the courses. Would recommend to anyone.
