Great Staff, Wonderful Environment, A Very Photogenic Building/Landscape!

For those looking to acquire the college legs, Black Hawk offers a wide variety of classes, clubs, sports, and more! Black Hawk is also one of the more affordable schools in the area! As a student, I would highly recommend BHC to anyone of all ages!

Last year my husband kept submitting the more info thing on the website and no one ever contacted him. Over 4 months he would call and email both locations and no one would respond. I thought maybe it was just him. For last 2 months I keep emailing and submitting the form online. Nothing. No response. It just wants me to sign up for classes. I just want to know the price of a course! This is ridiculous. He wanted to start a course and they didn’t even care enough to respond. They lost the opportunity to get thousands for him to take the welding course. They don’t care. You can email admissions, financial aid, etc. no one will respond. Why even have their emails listed then? If you request more information and insert your contact details why does no one contact you? No emails nothing. I’ve gone to 4 colleges so far in my life and this one has the worst ‘customer service’ most schools are so eager to help you so you can sign up right away and give them money for the courses. Guess even money isn’t enough to get a call back.

Staff isn’t too friendly. My main complaint is about one of the hawks hub workers at the checkout. He’s blonde and wears glasses if I remember correctly. Every time I have to go down there he is rude and acts annoyed by my presence. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a hello from him. I don’t think people have to be super happy all the time at their jobs, but at least be polite. The college is a ghost town half the time anyway. Other students I have talked to have complained about him as well.

It's ok. I mean it's every community college that exists is what it is. The annoying thing is they're completely lack of an IT department. They say they have one I've never managed to contact a member of their IT department in years over several times trying. I've always just giving up and found another way to solve my problems because they don't seem to exist.

Absolutely amazing college! It's amazing how much they are willing to help students out. There's scholarships to help pay for tuition, and programs that can even help you out with book/laptop expenses. They even have therapy sessions for anyone who's stressed and may just need to vent! Black Hawk is amazing and I'd recommend it to anyone who's trying to get a fresh start and looking to get ahead in life

Advisors are hit or miss. Once I found a good one, I made it a point to always ask for her.
Most of the professors I've had are good, although some are rather quirky (to be expected, I guess.) The terrible downfall for this college is some of the financial aid staff and registrar staff. They are patronizing, dismissive, not helpful at all, and have an attitude problem.
It's as though Black Hawk doesn't realize that these are the first people that most students are going to come into contact with, and those same people will set the foundation for the student's first and lasting impression. Insert exhausted sigh here.

Great place to get started. I earned my associates in arts with a business focus here and it was a great experience. It isn't your typical college seen because you've got people of all ages going to school with a lot of different backgrounds.

Wonderful education environment, especially for students who are unsure of their their future occupation. The professers are all willing to help, but you gotta take the extra step to see them after class hours to receive the help needed. The counselors (different from advisors) are amazing and will truly listen to you from an objective point of view!
