I went to school there in the 90s and then again 10 years ago. My son was there 2 years ago. And…read moremy daughter has been going for the last year. All of our experiences have been positive. It was easy to register and enroll for classes. Cost is much less than a 4 year college. Teachers and professors have all been great. The campus is beautiful and clean. Lots of student clubs to get involved in. Classes transferred easily for me over to CSU when i did that. We all had fantastic experiences with front range.

Had the misfortune of interacting with Sarah Hunnell yesterday through e-mail, as I had a few…read morequestions about the massage program. I simply asked how much the program was & if I could get the certification after attending these classes. I was chastised by her and asked if in the future, I could "compose a more formally-written email, especially given that we have not met." Lol. Ahhh, the irony. I am a 46 year-old with a Master's degree in English, who used to teach college. I do NOT need to be shamed or condescended to about the composition structure of my emails. I also don't think that is a great way to recruit students. I actually almost died several months ago from living in black mold, so I am struggling with chronic health & neurocognitive issues. I am tired & don't feel well. And I am tired of trying to reach a damn human being at these colleges, It's a mess. So, Ms. Hunnell, I hope that makes you feel better, acting like a miserable twa* to total strangers! :) Your sad attempt at snootiness & condescension only reveal what an unhappy person you are.

Sometimes you get what you pay for. Sometimes you get what's available…read more Quality, however, is independent of cost and availability. So if someone tells you a school is cheap therefore bad, or expensive therefore good; or tells you you have no choice, look them right in the eye and say, "I did not have brains with that woman." Aims is a typical community college, offering vocational programs suitable for the region. Besides the usual automotive, agricultural, nursing, welding, business, etc., there are programs in oil and gas technologies, aviation (darned good if I say so myself), "fire science" (a better name might be anti-fire science, since we're not in the Fahrenheit 451 world yet), and a few others. All the staff and teachers with whom I have dealt have been genuinely friendly and helpful when help was needed, to myself as well as to others. If you are considering enrolling at Aims, and wonder about the social atmosphere, you might like to know that Aims boasts at least one racial-oriented club, one sexist club, and also at least one sex-club. From my experience, social life comes automatically in college; it's the academics you need to focus on. So if you are really obsessed with your hobby or avocation, whether that is nursing, Christianity, automobiles, or sex, then join the appropriate club promoted here at Aims. But if you want to focus on academics and avocation, you'll find that making friends and hanging out come very naturally. I was a little surprised to see no Islamic club or martial arts club, and disappointed to see no chess or hiking club listed among the offerings on the Student Clubs and Organizations. But not all groupings of people are interested in everything. Aims is growing. I believe the quality of the school, administration, and course offerings are improving. If you're graduating high school and uncertain about college, a year at Aims will help you focus your aim in life. If you've been out of school for a while and wondering about a career change, Aims is one of the greatest resources to get the training you need in at least certain career plans. Addendum: Aims gives no discounts for senior citizens. If you are a senior citizen and wish to audit a course, you are charged the full tuition. The University of Northern Colorado allows senior citizens to audit courses tuition free, although lab and other fees may have to be paid. I understand that Colorado State University (Ft. Collins) also welcomes senior citizens to audit classes tuition free.

I was finally able to enroll in Aims after years of having a registration and financial aid hold…read more After submitting my FAFSA info, I completed a meeting with an advisor, who told me I was all set to register and would be able to recieve financial aid. The same day, which was less than a week before class start date, I called the financial aid office to verify that I had no more holds, I was clear to enroll, and would receive financial aid. I was told yes, everything was clear, and I should expect my classes paid for and a refund for the extra amount within a week. Great, right?! Well... A week AFTER CLASSES BEGAN, I recieved an email regarding the due date for payment for courses. I called the financial aid office, and was told then that I had a SAP hold on my student account, and needed to appeal in order for financial aid to pay for the courses. I did so, and was approved within 2 days. The Aims financial aid and cashier's offices took their sweet time to process MY awards, that we're already approved by FAFSA. The system they have now takes the grant/aid money, and holds it until the people at the school decide to process it. My awards were broken down into 2 seperate disbursement amounts. Of course they pay the school right away, with the first bit. The remainder of that amount took 4 days to get to me. As for the remainder of the second piece of grant amounts, it is at the mercy of the Aims office. The money was showing in my student account for 5 days. The cashier's office stated they only process refunds twice per week, it then goes into another seperate system..that system then takes 2-5 additional weekdays to disburse into direct deposit. So with that being said, it is up to them to process the refund, right? Even though federal student aid paid out right away, Aims holds the payments hostage, in a sense, and literally decides when/if a student gets their funding that is needed for living expenses. It should not be up to the employees (workstudy student employees) to decide when to disbursement payments. I attended Aims years ago, and the old system of payments and refunds was much more streamlined.. even with an appeal, it never took this long to receive a refund, even with a paper check option!! As soon as the course fees were paid, the student received the refund! I have a feeling the school is now getting some kickback in the form of interest accumulation with student financial accounts.. the money must sit for a certain amount of time before it is released, so the school gets extra funds that they really arent even entitled to.
