Why did you pick Bergen Community College?:
Since I lived in Bergen County, it was easier for me. It also had a wonderful reputation as one of the best community colleges in the state.
What did you like best about your college experience?:
I was extremely fortunate to meet and become friends with awesome professors such as Prof. Lynn Gold, Prof. Kassop, Prof. Fatemi, and Prof. Helff. My memories of each will always be with me.
What was your favorite academic experience while at Bergen?:
My favorite academic experiences at Bergen were in classes with Prof. Kassop and Prof. Fatemi. They are awesome teachers and I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to have them as professors.
What advice would you give a current/prospective student?:
For the students who plan to attend a four-year college, it is advantageous for them to graduate from Bergen rather than to transfer before graduation. By graduating from Bergen, the next college will accept all credits. I started Ramapo with 78 credits.
