The advising at the Dallas College Richland Campus is horrible. The music advisors place students that are not qualified in the program to fill chairs for $$$$. Students are put in 100 - 161 credit hours. The Associate's Degree is only 60 hours. 66 is the maximum number of credit hours that will transfer to a 4 year university. All attempted hours count. At 150 hours Texas Universities charge residents the much higher out of state tuition. At 180 hours financial aid ends. The problem has been swept under the rug for years. It is a bloodbath for the students, their paying parents and the taxpayers. The end result is few graduate or transfer from the Richland Campus Music Department. Of those few that transfer to a 4 year university only a tiny fraction graduate. Students' academic careers are ended and they do not get any skills in a music department that will lead to gainful employment.

Honestly was really a great school for the most part back before COVID when all classes were in person. Since COVID has struck and classes gone online they have very quickly gone downhill and handing the situation very poorly for learning quality.

My son graduated from Calvin in 2017. His choice to attend Calvin was one of the wisest decisions he made. His major was biochemistry. He was also a student athlete as a runner for Calvin. This University ( 2019-2020) is an amazing institution of higher education. Student to faculty ratio, environment that stresses diversity and supports a high degree of integrity , a great place to grow as a young adult. Calvin is not a party school. Calvin prepared my son to move into his chosen career. He is currently in his 4th year of a 5 year PhD program in Medicinal Chemistry on a fully funded PhD at the University of Michigan. Based on his undergraduate degree he had four full ride offers for PhD programs, including the University of Wisconsin and the University of Minnesota. He had a great four years at Calvin and has made life long friends. Calvin is in a great location in Grand Rapids for midwestern travel to campus.

Worst dorms in the state of Michigan!! community bathrooms with poor water pressure, limited wash stations and no running water or sink in a dorm room. School makes you live on campus all 4 years. Athletic facilities are nice.
