Simply put, CSCC has an excellent finance program. Not only is the college regionally accredited, but the business and finance programs are as well, by the ACBSP (universally recognized as one the most prestigious business accreditation organizations). It is extremely affordable as well; currently with in-state tuition at a mere $123 per credit hour. The faculty at CSCC is also top notch. While some instructors are more involved (or more interesting) than others, they have all provided excellent instruction. The two advisors for the finance program (Jack Popovich and Jill Cadotte) are two of the finest professors I have encountered to date. Each has been readily available, willing to help, and extremely well informed. Additionally, the distance learning testing staff is extremely well organized and always helpful. For a school that requires proctored exams for the sake of educational integrity, this is an absolute must! I had an algebra exam to be proctored at another school in Missouri and the school lost my test, which obviously horrified me. Hearing that, the CSCC testing staff immediately took care of it and I was able to take it after all—the same day. There is no finer way to earn the first two years of your finance degree than this program.
