Delta College - Main Campus — Local services in Frankenlust Township

All in all, it's a very "if you have to" option for a college. Most of the instructors are very helpful and available, and the courses themselves are pretty decent at roughly the same rate. The few exceptions are good examples of "if you're going to fail, make them question how you did it."

Most of my time at Delta was pleasant. On the positive majority, instructors are typically very accommodating and mildly challenging. They want their students to do more than know the material, and they take the time to help things along on an individual level. There are some online assignment platforms that completely fail in their purpose (correct answers are often marked wrong by the automated system), but the instructors will come around and fix everything.

Some instructors operate very poorly at even basic levels. For instance, a video editing course instructor struggling for two hours to explain to a class "if your audio goes into the red, it's too loud," and I don't mean in-depth explaining. It's a sore waste of time, and it is not a step above the general computers course I took in middle school. Perhaps the most unprofessional thing I've seen at Delta is an instructor for "minorities in the media," who will drop students from her online, no-sessions course for not checking the material on the day the course starts, claiming people who do so fall "weeks behind." That in two days of not having assignments beyond introducing oneself. I'd vie for the betterment of minorities all day long, but putting an angry child in charge of that subject doesn't support the cause.

It's also a huge shame that they're changing the mascot to some clipart duck. I'd rather graduate a third-generation pioneer than a first-generation meal. Regarding accommodations outside of courses, there's beyond what a student might need. The library has a ton of sources online and offline, there are physical training resources out the wazoo, yadah yadah.

On-campus food? Ehhhh.. The cafe upstairs just microwaves $1 food items and charges $4-7 or so. The Red Brix cafeteria downstairs has a daily variety of low, maybe mid-quality general foods and some mid-quality specialties - usually two a week, roughly speaking. The folks in the kitchen do what they can with the poorer quality ingredients they get.

Campus events are fine. Nothing great, nothing dull. The actual work and lounge spaces are fairly par, too, aside from the radio in the downstairs lounge/cafeteria area, which will intermittently switch between 60s-90s classics and some tasteless 2017-and-beyond garbage. All in all, I did enjoy Delta, but it has some dishearteningly low standards in more areas...

Well folks, Delta took me aback and I was happy I walked in the procession. Even though I am in my 60's, I saw that there were many others just as old if not older then me. It took me a long time to even get a chance to start college. I had a lot of people and things against me but with Delta's counseling and registrar's office, I did finally achieve my goals. I am the only girl in my family to graduate from college and next to my brother, the only second one in our family of five.

Thank you Delta College for all of the encouragement, opportunities, counseling, patients and great faculty. What I experienced was the best. Of all of the improvements such as in computers, rooms, available classes and even the coffee shop my favorite was in the art department with the new computers, desks and area created for which we could stretch out our work and learn the new state of the arts.

The whole experience was delightful and Delta put on a beautiful event. Even after we finished in the gymnasium, our parents and friends were delighted with the refreshments available in the commons.

I met up with a few people and so much was offered to us graduates such as pictures, wonderful seating, plenty of air and room. Many people were there to make us feel special and glad to wear the gown and follow the procession with ease.

Flowers were everywhere and the campus police were there to guide us which I needed and so did others. We knew we could trust their judgement and advice.

Excitement was at a high and many of us were happy to be there to receive our degrees for the hard work and time we put into it, along with the money well spent for our education. Many of us either plan on going on to another college of choice for a higher degree, while others are satisfied with what they achieved but have the option of moving on later.

I am just resting in this moment as I just received my photo shot through the mail. I love it. The photographer took a real nice one of me receiving my diploma and while I am not photogenic, he made me want to purchase this picture of me.

Thank you again To Delta and the Faculty for a very special day.

Delta Graduate Student with high honors and...

I am a previous student, my husband a current student. This college is not for working adults. None of the core classes for the degrees we both tried to pursue there are offered with night time options, and only online alternatives for a select few. Going by the degree plans, it tells you what classes you should take each semester. Half the time the classes aren't even offered in that semester. We are trying to pick my husband's classes and all of the times available are in the middle of the afternoon. You literally have to have no job, no life to be able to get a degree here unless you want to work an overnight shift somewhere, which is not an option for those of us that are office professionals. You'd be lucky to get one to three classes in per semester, essentially wasting your financial aid. What a joke...
