John - 01/10/2024

Delgado Community College is an above-average school. The layout is easy to navigate with its moderate campus size. The campus itself is somewhat tidy for the most part if you avoid all the goose droppings. The atmosphere is quiet, though a little dull at times. Finally, the academic resources are plentiful in case you need a little boost in your studies. I recommend attending if you're on the fence about where to go.

Definitely somewhere to be and expand your horizon. Experience is all you’ll ever need. To just further your mind and experience new things. Amazing city, and great staff. Most of them actually care and want you to succeed and be great. Go to extreme lengths.

Delgado community college is a great college to help those get a head start on their career.

Janae - 01/23/2020

I like Delgado. The office staff are pretty lazy so beware. You typically need to stay on top of them for everything. Other than that, everyone is super helpful. This semester I’m taking a lot of online classes but my teachers really helped make sure I was all set up for class. The students are also pretty helpful. And it’s located in New Orleans which is a city just crawling with culture and good food. :)
