Maine College of Art & Design

Outstanding works of art at Maine college of art and design. If you are an art buff and or want to see some up and comer artists in the local area I highly recommend checking this out, you won’t regret it

Lovely art school with great facilites and tools un Portland Maine. A must yo visit

I love being at Maine College of Art & Design. I applied and was accepted when I was 51, the same time my youngest kids were applying for schools. I have thoroughly enjoyed all my classes, majored in painting and minored in writing. They have all been challenging. I have taken such a variety Art History classes as well as others not necessarily associated with art. I thought the Pirates class last spring was one of the best. This semester, Chinese Painting and Calligraphy looks fascinating. Now that gatherings are back in person, the school is also having more Continuing Education classes on the weekends and during the breaks, getting back to normal.

Amazing College of Art. My review is based only on my experience as a viewer and not as a college student.

While touristing around in the streets of Portland, we came across this awesome College that features amazing art galleries (open to the public + free of charge) with all of the amazing work of the talented local students.

Coming here on the weekend wasn’t too crowded, we even went up the stairs and explored some more art work and some of the cool art rooms. Some students were working on their art and we even got to see the really dope photo room with its own dark room. So so dreamy!

The art and talent of these students truly reflects on their art work. Can’t wait to come back in here and check out some of the newer art work. The galleries and art work changes constantly so make sure to stop by and check it out. Everyone is welcome!

Awesome exhibit space and really fascinating exhibit on surveillance.

The Roux Institute at Northeastern University

The Roux Institute is a very intellectual stimulating place. From when you enter the door, there is already some intellectual curiosity that is sparked instantly.
I love how the place is designed to make everyone belong to a community because of the open sitting.

I love how high tech the place is; with all the latest tools and resources that make for example virtual classes so easy.

Very nice, modern, and new building from a great University!
Nice patio and areas!

Its a lovely place to study with a beautiful scenery.

Recruiters made up stories.  Program was a mess. Avoid.

Southern Maine Community College

Called to get clarification on billing and payment plans, and the woman I spoke with at accounts and billing was so disgustingly rude and unhelpful. It was very discouraging to see how disrespectful she was.

Amazing staff at the school. Diane Scott moved mountains for me! I needed to get a tetanus booster shot the day that I was starting class. Even though she works in the student life department, she somehow made it happen, and I’m still not exactly sure how she did it all I know is that I get to attend my first day of class this evening, and I am beyond excited about it. Thank you, Diane! SMCC is better because of you!

It has an amazing campus with amazing ocean views!

Beautiful spot for doing homework. I went to Pils and Love beer fest and that was stunning at this venue.

Any bad thing that can and will happen gets swept under the rug, all you have to do is be friends with an RA and you can get away with anything.

Unity Environmental University Hybrid Learning

Was dropped halfway through a bachelors for Unity’s mistake and mishandling of the schedule.
They would not work with me yet still have the audacity to bill me without even applying it to the employment scholarship I was using the first 2 years.
Now Unity will not respond at all to my emails and have blocked me on social media.
Stay away from this “college”.

My experience at Unity has been excellent. I have been a distance education student since July 2020. I'm pursuing my BS in Environmental Geospatial Technologies. All the professors I have been able to take classes with have been wonderfully great. They are understandable, helpful, very knowledgeable, and willing to help. The courses are well designed, with the ability to put into practice while you are learning. In addition, being able to study at Unity has been very helpful. As a result, I have continued fulfilling one of my goals; to finish my studies. At the same time, being able to work, spend time with my family, and do the basic things in my daily life, make it the perfect place to complete my studies.

Unity College is my favorite school I've ever attended. I graduated with a Master's of Professional Science in Environmental Studies and Sustainability, and everything I learned was extremely applicable to my job with boots on the ground. I perfected my project management skills and improved my writing skills exponentially through their programming. When I wanted additional training in wildlife management, the enrollment department worked with me to figure out a second masters program to give me the edge I need to achieve my career goals. Every single teacher I've had at Unity has been outstanding and approachable. The coursework is challenging but useful. I would recommend this college to anyone wishing to elevate their career.

I've been a distance education student here at Unity since November 2020, and I couldn't be happier I decided to go back to school! At the time, they were one of few colleges across the country with an online GIS degree program. Unlike my last school, the people here actually want you to succeed! The admissions and financial aid process was a breeze, and the staff was extremely helpful and responsive. My advisor has been outstanding throughout the entire experience (and yes, just ONE advisor - I haven't been bounced to a new advisor every semester or year). All my classes have been geared specifically toward my degree. My classes have been taught by a professor who has earned a doctorate in their field (not a teaching assistant or graduate student). They have been a fantastic resource in furthering both my education and career! If you want to invest in yourself and your future, I recommend considering Unity College. Keep in mind that your future relies on how much effort you're willing to invest - no one will hand you a free degree. Work hard and achieve your goals!

My time as a distance student with Unity College, earning my MSc in Environmental Science ('22), has been overwhelmingly positive. In my experience, the instructors are knowledgeable and communicative, class sizes are small, coursework is rigorous, and the administrative/advising staff are consistently kind and helpful. Really grateful to have the flexibility of a distance learning environment, without sacrificing a high-quality education.

University of Maine

I've only gone to Umaine a few times, but it seems absolutely amazing. I definitely want to go there when I go into college, and I am very excited. My parents went there too, and they also had an amazing experience. My father did landscape horticulture, and my mother did physical education and teaching. I go there for homecoming with them, and I definitely recommend at least checking it out. (Also, good food.)

The dorms are a lot of fun here and everywhere that I have been on campus has been well maintained and clean. The food that you can find on campus is great too. I never attended class here, but I am sure that would be nice as well, I have heard great things.

So let’s start with the location, middle of nowhere, if you go without a car, forget it.  They advertise multiple activities across campus that are easy to find, however you have to know people to become a part of anything.  The food is right up there with cafeteria high school food, not the best by far and very expensive if you don’t have a full dining plan.  While the professors are great at what they do, the education is on par with any other state school you can find.  The people who are welcoming at first really are not the best, had a buddy receive an harassment notice because he was talking about another student quietly in his own room.  If you don’t mind outdated buildings, a clique-like school, mediocre food, and getting in trouble for nothing, then this is the place for you.

UMaine is a great school. Nearly every professor I had while working on my degree here was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. My personal experience was with Engineering, which isn't a walk in the park by any means, but succeeding here lends itself to feeling extremely satisfied due to amount of support given to the students by the faculty.

Campus is very nice and expansive, and is great to walk around on all times of the year (though, bundle up if it's the winter - Orono can get very cold!). It always feels lively, and there's always a ton of things going on that you can get involved with.

Dining can be a bit of a mixed bag sometimes, but it's not bad by any means.

Some of the buildings are fairly old, but from what I've seen, heard, and read both during my time there and since I graduated, they appear to be slowly modernizing the worst offenders across the campus.

All-in-all, going to UMaine was a great experience. The community is great, the education is superb, and it's an all-around great choice if you're considering to go here.

Very great school with awesome opportunities for their students. College is suppose to be the launch pad for our future and it is up to us to make college beneficial. I think that the University of Maine gives their students all of the resources and opportunities to do great things! Proud to be a Black Bear!!! Go Blue!

Shibles Hall - College of Education and Human Development - University of Maine

Hawaiʻi Community College

I feel comfortable and welcome for the most part. Covid has limited how many students are on campus. Cafeteria is open, run by the culinary class. Counselor's are very helpful (mine was Karen C.) Security just got a new office that should be occupied by next semester. The vocational classes are well provided for. If your choice of education falls within their curriculum, it's absolutely worth checking out.

I enjoyed the school a lot and was learning as much as I could, my grandfather got sick in my 2nd semester and I had to fly to another island to help take care of him till he passed away.  I talked to my adviser and she advised me to just let the year play out and that I would be fine retaking the classes the next year.  When the year ended they wouldn't let me go back to school or release any of my transcripts unless I paid back the student loans i got.  I then appealed it to the Vice Chancellor informed me that a grandparent is not a direct family member and they only allow students to leave mid semester if it is a father, mother, or a offspring.

Best  choice I made was to attend college at HCC. I enjoyed my instructors and counslors they really want the best for their students. I graduated from HCC in 2014 and I miss attending classes.

I loved going to school and working here. Please stop by the Kau Wa'a Student Life Center for snacks, coffee, juice, and fun anytime Mon-Thursday 8AM -3PM, located right next to the counseling office. The student employees there are always happy to help you make home at school, plus we keep it a chilled 70 degrees in there, so come cool off!

Third semester! One more semester. 2021 very excited attending here even with all the changes with the coranavirus they (staff) have made it possible to attend here (HCC).

University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo

I love UH, however I was recently dropped from Czarski’s class after completing assignments up to week 3, simply because I missed an assignment in the first week. I do not place blame on administration, as my professor submitted the request. However, I believe that it is unfair to have been dropped so late when my professor could have requested that I be unenrolled during week 1, or at least informed me not to continue doing assignments. Be mindful of the classes you take, and do your research on who will be leading your learning!

I had a wonderful experience here; I loved the intimate and personal class size/student-to-professor ratio, which allowed for better, more in-depth learning. Also, I had a smooth experience transferring from my junior college in California to here, and had a lot of faculty help along the way; the college is very organized (answering phones most of the time I call, getting new students set up w/financial aid, etc.). The only thing was that, sometimes, it was hard to get in touch with a few professors, but once I did, they were very accommodating and memorable. I also made friends from my TESOL teaching certification program…I miss it so much sometimes; I may go to grad school here! :)

It is very anti democratic when it comes to having students a voice on this campus... they don't have a student union... only one that is controlled by the administration... Most of the administration is helpful on getting you in the door but once you have a grievance beware the gossip fest and lateral violence through exclusion. There are some great teachers here but there is one who hates men in the political science department and will do what it takes to give you the lowest grade possible if she does not like you.... beware of the karen!!!

As a solo backpacker, I found a spot on the campus wich i could just lie down on the floor and sleep without getting disturbed!

1.EXTREME LACK of PROFESSIONALISM (ex. JACKIE SALES-IYO)
2. Math Department, FYI - smart people don't always make good teachers,
3. If SUM OF the SO CALLED school staff (COUNSELORS & DPT. HEADS INCLUDED) would stop GOSSIPING & LUSTING after the students MAYBE IT WOULD BE A DECENT SCHOOL, INSTEAD OF A SHALLOW TOURIST SCHOOL.
4.Good teachers don't last there because the "BACK STABBING IMMATURE" STAFFERS TARGET the GOOD TEACHERS making their experience not worth TOLERATING.

Go Fly Maui, LLC

My wife and I had an incredible time with Go Fly Maui. This is the only doors off helicopter experience available in Maui (at least as of Jan 2023) that will allow you to bring more than just a phone on board. I was able to bring my camera and Insta360 camera without issue. Both Nick and Magen were incredibly professional and personable!

We were able to get some incredible shots during our flight and had a great time too. Because you fly in a smaller helicopter here (with only 4 seats total including the pilot's seat), you don't need to fight for window seats - every seat is going to get you a completely clean view out the side of the helicopter. The entire experience is one on one with Nick (the pilot). We happened to bump into other pilots around the airfield and everyone we ran into went on about how skilled Nick is as a pilot and how he's just an all around great guy -  all of which is absolutely true.

Nick gave us some great tips on other spots to hit on the island and really made the whole thing such a fun experience. Truly a once in a lifetime experience if you're visiting Maui - we couldn't get the smiles off our faces for days! If you're humming and hawing about whether or not you want to do a helicopter tour, or which one to do, I'd say hum and haw no further - get in touch with Go Fly Maui and book in with them today. These guys feel like a bit of a hidden gem right now on Maui so get in now while you can before you need to book a year in advance!

I've been lucky to have flown with them a few times now on the photo flight and just recently the discovery flight! Being a photographer and living on Maui, it's an awesome perspective to see the island for the air! I'm enamored with all the gorgeous places that we were able to see from sea cliff waterfalls, shipwrecks, whales, and manta rays!

The owners, Nick and Magen, are friendly and make the whole experience a lot of fun! I've had a few friends who had never been on a helicopter and were a little nervous but pilot Nick put them at ease with his knowledge and witty sense of humor.

Last week, I did the discovery flight and it was incredible! We started off with an intro of all the controls and safety logistics and then flew for 30 min. Hands down, one of the coolest experiences! I can't recommend this enough--if you even have an inkling of wanting to fly, sign up! You won't regret it. You might even want to get your pilot's license after.

I recently went on one of the discovery flights with the owner Nick and had THE BEST time! Nick patiently and confidently explained the helicopter controls as well as important safety points and although I was nervous before getting on the helicopter, I didn’t feel scared at all after meeting Nick. The views from the helicopter were simply stunning and photos and video do not do it justice. Most of the flight felt like a dream as we soared effortlessly through jagged green valleys and explored seemingly never ending waterfalls. Nick’s confident but hilarious demeanor and commentary put me at ease before and during the flight. He also went out of his way to equip me with anti nausea medicine beforehand which made all the difference for someone who usually suffers from motion sickness. Overall this was an AMAZING experience and I can’t wait to get back up in the air again!

Go fly Maui provided the most spectacular flight training experience with unbelievable and breathtaking views. I couldn’t believe how customisable my flight was. Nick allowed me to choose the route and explore what I wanted, of course to within reason. As such I got to check out some of the most stunning waterfalls, ridges and cliffs on Molokai. Nick was highly professional and provided A+ training and flexibility.
Definitely the best flight in 90 minutes I’ve done in my helicopter pilot career and most recommended helicopter flying on Maui.

Nick and Magen Moran run a top notch helicopter service in Maui. I have been on several other helicopter operators on Maui and the big island and none compare to Go Fly Maui. I booked a 1 1/2 hour flight to catch Kai Lenny, Tyler Laronde and friends surfing Pe'ahi (Jaws) on December 31st amazingly big break. Nick kept Daniel Sullivan and myself in perfect position to get amazing shots. If you are on Maui then do yourself a favor and book a flight. It will be the most amazing event you will experience. I also want to say as a commercial rated pilot myself, I was very impressed with Nick's safety and skills. I will be up again with Go Fly Maui very soon.
