Good reviews

I've received by Associate in Arts degree this past spring, and I've come back to SMC to pursue my Bachelor in Arts degree (majoring in Journalism). I love this school; the atmosphere, people, and opportunities you'll run into while attending SMC will change your life for the better. Truly a wonderful place.

I am going into my sophomore year at SMC and I truly love the school. It has an odd reputation as it is not some pricy school, but that is why it is so great. It is an affordable school with a good amount of first gen and low income students. There are opportunities here if you seek them and the staff wants you to succeed. I love the small campus.

Great experience at SMC. Wish it was a four year school. Definitely a jock campus, but it's so small, everyone is recognized for whatever they're in to. Faith formation is big, but if you're not Methodist, you are still well-respected and encouraged. Miss this school so much. It will always be considered my best educational experience.

This college takes your money and does not provide the instructions you pay for! Teachers stopped classes after 30 to 40 min or sooner and told students to watch links on the internet. Struggling students had no chances to get help as teaches avoided class interaction! Paid for campus activities while being an online student.
