Best Answer

Tri -C is a good starter college and cheaper than a University, but that is up to you on how much education you need and how far you want to go.

Question: Cuyahoga Community College [Tri-C] ? (Ohio)?

I am a sophmore in highschool and am looking for a college that offers an associates degree in Diagnostic Medical Sonography. Cuyahoga Community College has the program I am interested in but it is near cleveland and i was wondering if anyone knew what the neighborhood was like? Is there a lot of crime? Has anyone went to this school?

Best Answer

I'm currently completing the pre-reqs for the DMS program at Tri-C and do not find the area to be scary or crime filled at all. I feel very safe even while attending night classes twice a week. I live in Berea at a very nice apartment complex, but I think there are even better places that are closer to live (I have to compromise b/c my husband works in Oberlin). I would not hesitate to go here and it's tuition is very cheap if you are in-state. Good luck!
