I've really come to love this little library! It's a lovely place to bring my kiddos - there is a…read morefantastic kids area with lots of books, some toys, etc and my toddler has a blast picking out books to read or check out, and lining up dinosaurs. I have also recently started attending baby and toddler story times, and the "Play to Learn" program by the Tacoma Children's Museum, and I can't say enough good things about these programs! The staff is lovely, supportive, welcoming, and fantastic with the children. Michelle (who leads the story times) has made me feel welcome and calm when I am having one of those hard mom days trying to figure out life with two kids, and my daughter just adores her (and requests almost daily to go to story time now!). As a grown-up, I've also loved the wide selection of books and music, and the ease of using their online system for searches, holds, and paying fines. This is truly a little gem!!

I've attended Pierce College for 2 years and I've gotten 70 college credits. I was studying…read morePre-Nursing and was trying to get my Associates degree. I used to be a Nurse. I was a Certified Medical Assistant and a Registered Chiropractic Assistant. So I already took Biology classes and Pharmacology which consists of Chemistry at my previous college. I also worked with Doctors and real live patients. Pierce College refused to transfer my college credits from my previous college due to its accreditation. This ridiculous "oh it's nationally accredited and not regionally accredited", which is just a bunch of garbage. Nationally accredited colleges teach the same things. An example is Clover Park Technical College; their Pre- Nursing classes are the same as Pierce College and their Nursing program as well. I spoke to a representative at Clover Park Technical College and they said they would transfer my college credits from my previous college. So if I had attended Clover Park Technical College instead of Pierce College, I would've gotten my Associates degree by now. I regret I attended Pierce College. I should've went to Clover Park Technical College. The military promotes them "big time", and that's what got me caught going to Pierce College. Pierce College has a bias against Nationally accredited Colleges. How about Pierce College warn students of this before they attend? Tell us future students about how Uppity and snobbish you guys are about a previous college's accreditation so that we can avoid Pierce College. This college really deserves 0 stars, I had to put a star just to post my review.

Questions of funding would seem to be something that financial aid should have the answer to. Don't rush to that conclusion. They can't give straight answers and counselors are in the dark. Face time with financial aid is limited. They are on campus on a rotating basis. DON'T EVEN try to get them on the phone, get an email response or a timely response from a counselor. Pierce College is a clown show.

The lady looked like she was itchin' to get outta there and the van was outside waiting for her so I didn't get a chance to go inside.
