About to graduate in May and very thankful for everything Beacon has allowed me to do. From the amazing faculty to Learning Specialists, Beacon's academic experience as well as career readiness has given me the confidence to do anything. Special thank you's to the Art Department and Psychology Department for teaching me all about collaboration and research.

The college had it pros and cons like any other college and or university in reality. The teachers were great, friendly, helpful and over all good people to get support from. If your a person with learning disabilities and needs extra extra support, this is definitely a good college for you. The Negatives- I went there for 1 year (August 2018- May 4th 2019) The RAP hall, which is where all Freshman are placed except for the lucky few places in the villages. The RAP hall, from the first night was. just. chaos. Some the new students had some real mental issues and made everything such a big deal. The police were call multiple time throughout the year. Idiots vaping at 3 am would set off the fire alarm, I mean I could go on. When I looked at the expectance rate in 2018 was about 76%, I looked a few weeks ago again and it went down to 43%. Beacon doesn’t want the bad kids to get it and cause problems for everyone else. If you made it all the way down here then you read the review, so thank you. I hope this help and feel free to tell me what you think.

The classes and teachers are great but when it comes to maitenace they are a flat 0. The maintenance is lazy, only does half ass job when fixing problems, they allow students to spend entire semesters living with black mold in the appartments until it becomes obvious the mold is there. There are bugs infesting an appartment currently because the maintenance falied to replace a fallen screen which was a small 5 minute task which is now a huge problem. The state of specifically the beacon commons apartments is literally the worst I have ever lived in. The bathtub is a sick rust color because the tub is that old it is rusting, nothing has been done about that in a year. Someone needs to be fired this entire commons complex needs to be demolished and rebuilt rather than try to house students in nearly toxic environments. These apartments are very close to section8 housing. Its sad that students have to pay over $50,000 a semester (not including housing and food cost) to live in a housing complex which makes the students feel like they are just a step up from homeless. Parents really have no idea how gross these appartments are and if they did beacon probably be facing several law suits. This needs to change, because i sure as hell would never send a child to a school where A/c units break and burn often, the maintenance takes months to tackle even the tiniest of tasks, and as students we are not supposed to fix anything ourselves.
