SUNY Canton - Canton (NY)

1 /5 Rjerld Long: This school was nothing but a nightmare for me. The Financial aid office screwed me up. I did a whole semester, fine and great. Come second semester I’m in class for over a month and they pull me out in the hall to tell me something is wrong with everything and that I shouldn’t have been coming to class and everything I did for the month didn’t count. Took me years to pay back that loan for absolutely NOTHING. Every time I needed some help, they’d make me an appointment, and I’d trek through snow a mile away just for them to cancel on me. Just beware. I should have sued them for doing me like this.

1 /5 Default Bandaid: I’d rate zero if I could, the people in the one hop shop are hardly useful, food stinks, and the job acceptance rate is terrible. Even if you get state aid, you’ll likely still end up paying nearly $80,000 for a 4 year degree. Some of the faculty are helpful but most of them give up on their students very easily.

1 /5 Jenna Rae: The financial aid office is a mess. Nice people who help when they can but end up messing it up in the end causing you to either owe more money or dropping your schedule. If I could find another school in NYS who had my program I would gladly transfer immediately. Not worth the time or money. Update: They do not fix their pot holes all year and it creates bathtub sized pot holes that ruin your wheel bearings. Do not go to this school.

3 /5 Thomas Wissman: We visited SUNY Canton to get a look at their four year vet tech program. This is what my son wants to major in on his way to becoming a veterinarian. I liked the four year program with the option to do an additional year to get a vet management add on an get two degrees. However, we were not as impressed with the community, architecture of the school and the overall distance from home.

1 /5 N: They give you 2 hours to move out your entire dorm, clean it and be off the property. WITH OUT the use of carts in the elevators (elevators are turned off). People on the same floor as the outside doors can use carts but for anyone down or upstairs cannot easily move out. Especially for family members trying to help who are injured and need the elevator. Shame Canton... shame shame shame.
