Student Reviews and Ratings for Lawson State Community College-Birmingham Campus
Overall Rating:
Update! Some teachers are ok but, very unorganized school. The business department is a joke and so is the student government. If going for a business degree please go somewhere else. They don't care for students who work. Now a days its more like an high school than a college. Not a great school if your trying to figure yourself out. They really suck the fun out of learning!
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Only useful ppl are the ones in the financial aid office if that says anything. The teachers are regular ppl off the streets that think they are send from God to bless you with their presences. Waist you money somewhere else and actually learn something that will make you some money .

Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Lawson state is actually a excellent school and a good environment they have possible any major you want
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Experience is good if you don't count the rude and ill-mannered administrators. You have to pretty much bend down and kiss their behinds to get a smile, or "you're welcomed" out of them. I'm sure there are plenty who'd love to have their jobs and would do it with pep and pride. Why are they still employed there? Oh well. Maybe one day my joy will rub off! :)
