Jasmine - 09/22/2022

In my opinion, East Mississippi Community College is very consistent. My professors always answer my emails as well as make sure I understand what is going on. If I am having trouble with assignment or needing assistance with an assignment I am always able to use Net tutor for assistance.

Amiyah - 06/08/2020

Great school if you’re an athlete, but not good for just regular students. And if you are an athlete, you get more praise by professors and such rather than being a normal student. I feel as if everyone isn’t treated fairly as far as grading when it comes down to it. Athletes have it easy.

Breanna - 11/23/2019

Overall, East Mississippi Community College is a great place to be and a great college to attend. The teachers are very professional, nice, and are good at what they do. They are very understanding and helpful. It is a small college, and I find that I prefer smaller campuses to larger ones.

Sara - 04/29/2019

East Mississippi Community College has two campuses. I attend the Mayhew campus which doesn't have any residential housing. My review is based on this campus. The majority of my classes challenged me more than I expected and the professors were always available outside of class. Online classes tended to be a lot easier than the ones in the classroom.
