Highline College

I feel that this college has gotten a bad rap due to the drugs, gangs as well as homeless that have moved into the area. There are auto thefts in the parking lot. Security is almost non-existent. I wish that the local cops and school security would be able to clear out the vagabonds who live in the wooded area on campus and off.

The school had small classes and there were plenty of opportunities to join clubs and other activities. The classes are really flexible and I never had an issue getting an appointment with a professor or simply walking in during their open office hours.

I love Highline, I am extremely thankful to get the chance to attend at this point in time, and will always feel appreciative of my time here. Also, being a student worker on campus is great, and has allowed me to grow and prepare myself for my career and transfer. All the professors are great, and we are always open to discussion with them. There is a lot of course options for everyone, and have a good spread of availability and financial aid.

Has a very diverse student body. I've learned a lot from the people that I've encountered alone. The professors are also understanding and knowledgable for the most part. I've had some bad staff and professor experiences but for the most part, it has been pretty positive. I think using websites like "Rate my Professor" can really help you in choosing a professor suited to you though. I also enjoy the campus activities. There are many events hosted throughout the school year. Emails are sent out frequently regarding upcoming events. However, everything moves quickly and it's hard to meet people. There isn't a big sports culture either, so if that's something important to a student, it might not be the right fit. The school can feel somewhat disconnected sometimes because of these two things. Everyone is working on their own thing and most students aren't there full-time. A lot of students still work a job(s), go to high school, or have other circumstances stopping them from being as involved in school as they could be.

Highline is one of a kind school taht offered tremendous amount of helps to get students transition throughout their whole experience there. They have a lot of faculties cared for their students along with maintaining a balance from being inside the classroom and outside of classroom. In the case of Financial aid office, they would try their best to offer some kind of financial assistance to students whenever they can. Highline College has unique cultural food that is very tasty to eat along with numerous restaurants that are affordable. Although Highline College is a nice school, there are students that would deter the rating from being perfect. Every schools have some kind of set back so that is no exception to HIghline College as well, but overall the college treasured its students and tried to assist their students in every ways that they can.

Highline College is a great college when it comes to courses. I believe my education received there was so valuable. Staff is mostly friendly and they care about you understanding your courses. The college's student government is extremely impressive and does a great job in interacting with students. Overall, if you are focused on your classes and goals, most people will excel at this college.

It is extremely liberal, if you like that sort of thing. Everywhere you go, there is always something to protest. But the class sizes are nice, and my teachers are always accessible. Everyone comes prepared to learn, because this school is all about second chances.

I really enjoyed my experience in highline and being able to meet new people and enjoying that different culture and also the staff being so welcoming and being envolved in students leaning, I really enjoyed the atmosphere in the class rook and class sizes.

I think Highline has good teachers and a good curriculum for legal studies for their AAS/Paralegal Program and if you study hard you can get good grades and you can pass the program. They also incorporate an internship component which is vital to your learning and practical application. Highline IS an ABA ccredited school, which is important to employers. However, I feel that where they fall short is: 1) that they don't really do enough practical pplication in making sure that the students know how to fill out the forms you will need to know "on the job", and you can really only get this through whatever internship you might do, and 2) When I attended the school they didn't have a very good assistance program for job placement services. I never really got a job as a Paralegal after graduation and it was never really explained PRIOR to enrolling how little Paralegals make (less than half of what I made before I enrolled). My money would have been better spent getting my degree in the field in which I was laid off.

Everything is very excellent, the staff is very cooperative and they are always willing to help the students. We have many resources on campus that help us with our goals and assignment. We even have several sports teams and several events a year for all ethnicities.

As a first generation college student, leaving the comfort and certainty of high school life was terrifying, especially when considering how I would pay for it all. At first I was a bit skeptical of going to Highline College, thinking it would be "too easy" or inferior to the expensive universities I couldn't afford to attend. I was pleasantly surprise what a good intermediate Highline College has been for me though as a student looking to transfer to a University. The classes are actually intellectually challenging, the staff is amazing, and the campus is beautiful. Small class sizes mean it is really easy to get in touch with a professor to ask about a certain concept that is confusing or hard to grasp. All the professors I have had are super friendly and most are more than happy to work with you on homework or assignments during their clearly listed office hours. They also have a great library with tons of resources such as student mentors to help with almost any subject taught at the school. They even have student mentors that speak a wide variety of different languages if English is your second language, or if you just feel more comfortable talking in a different language with the mentors. When I'm not in class, I'm usually in the library studying by myself or with friends in the study rooms available for groups of students. Whether you're doing running start, want to attend for the full four years, or are looking to transfer (like I am planning on doing at the end of this year) to a four year university, I would highly recommend looking into Highline College, as it is a great introduction to college life with tons of student resources available to help make getting an education easier.

Highline College is one of the most diverse schools in the area. cultural appreciation is to the roof. and activities like student organizations, leadership opportunities with a bunch of student-led clubs are available. tuition is not that bad either. the teachers are amazing and different resources like trio and mesa, Umoja and others are available to help students succeed

It is a decent place to get an education. The professors really make the classes worthwhile because a lot of them are enthusiastic about their class and students. All the professors have their office hours available and are easy to talk to, which makes the classes better because students can easily communicate. Most teachers use Canvas which is super helpful. The college is easy to get to by bus and offers discounts in the bookstore for students who have an ORCA card. Overall, this is a good school and a good stepping stone for me as I plan to go to a four-year.

I attended online classes. The admissions process was relatively easy and the staff was always available to answer questions. Taking online classes didn't really give me a feel for the campus or student environment but it was still positive experience.

It is a grrat place to come and earn your AA, it is affordable and a great place for everyone. It’s extremely welcoming and helpful to every student that comes through here.
