Thanks for Choosing Harrison College

By Kayla Brewer
 

“We change lives, one student at a time.”  That is Harrison College’s motto and they stick to that statement.  Harrison is a small college, and it is becoming more and more popular.  Harrison College is a great college to attend because of the small class sizes, the help that is available if needed, and the benefits of choosing Harrison.
 
First, a good reason for choosing Harrison College is because of the small class sizes.  Small class sizes give the students a more personal atmosphere and more one-on-one time with the instructor.  The instructors are always available if needed.  Because of the small class, the students get to know each other on a more personal note and soon become friends.  Everyone at this college is so nice and if someone ever needed something, all that is needed is to ask someone and soon it is there.
 
Another reason for choosing Harrison is the help that is available anytime.  Whether it is tutoring or financial help, someone is always here if and when needed.  On every door in the building there is a piece of paper that lists all the instructors and the times they are available for tutoring.  If that time in particular does not fit one’s schedule, contact the instructor and he/she will find a time that will work for both parties involved.  Another kind of help available is financial aid.  Kathy and Megan are the local financial aid analysts and are always there if needed.  They are always encouraging students to apply for scholarships and grants to help pay for tuition.  The students can make an appointment any time if they need to see Kathy or Megan about their financial issues. 
 
Finally, the third reason for choosing Harrison College is the benefits.  One benefit of choosing Harrison is the flexible class schedules.  If the student is working during the day and is unable to take day classes, night classes are available.  Online classes are also available if the student has a job, children, and other things to do and cannot handle the pressure of also going to class.  Another benefit of Harrison is that they offer many types of degrees.  Here at the local Columbus campus not as many degrees are offered as the main college in Indianapolis, but there are still quite a lot to choose from.  Degrees offered in Columbus range from business degrees to medical degrees.  Some of the business degrees offered are accounting, business finance, business management, and human resources.  The medical degrees offered are medical assisting and medical reimbursement technology.
 
There are many reasons to choose Harrison College, but the small class sizes, the help that is available, and the benefits of Harrison are just a few.  So when starting at Harrison, remember, if anything is needed, help is always available from anybody.
