What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
This would be a life changing conversation... or at least I would hope that it would be. I dropped out of HS during my senior year to prove to my parent's that I was an independent being and could make decisions for myself. If I would have known that by dropping out of school the only person I was hurting was myself... I would have never done it. I would tell the SR me about the embarrassment I feel everytime I am asked "What year did you graduate?". I know that if I could have that moment, I would be able to have made better decisions and probably be a college graduate at this time instead of blindly going through the motions of my life now. An education is the most important thing you can get in a person's young life. I wish I would have realized this before I made some of the biggest mistakes of my life.

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
I wish i had known about varities of courses they had offered to the students at the tution costs in classes. I didn't realize this school has the vital courses for us to develop our own goals in career. It was essential for me to stay in college and complete the classes to get my career goal on the track. I strongly recommend the prospective students to apply for fsfsa and scholarships early before the college year begins in fall. The tutions has raised drastically every year and the classes you are considering to take will be more expensive.

What's unique about your campus?
What i like best about CCA is they make it possible for a person that must work full time able to attend. They have night classes and online classes. CCA is not like a typical college. it is full of adults that have been out of school for at least a few years. the school makes it really easy to go back. i dont feel out of place because of this.

Describe your favorite campus traditions.
I can answer this for myself only, as I have not asked others about this question. At first, I chose this school because of low cost and close proximity to my home. After 2 semesters, I transferred for one year to another community college that is larger, because of schedule availability and course offerings. I am now back at Community College of Aurora, and realize that the staff are friendlier and consistently very helpful. Perhaps because the ethnicity of the student population is more varied, they seem more patient and accomodating, friendly and efficient. I heartily recommend CCA to others.

What's the most frustrating thing about your school?
The worst thing about my school is the lack of motivation among the students. Some think that somehow they will get through life without working and trying. Some came to class unprepared and slowed the pace of the entire class. I graduated a year early and it was not a cake walk. Nothing can happen without motivation and there was a general lack thereof. If everyone at my school had a goal to attain, somewhere to go in life and with some greatness to achieve, I think we would find my school and society itself in a far better situation.
