Dear former Student, I recently enrolled into Harcumm College which I am very unhappy with the admission staff. Does anyone know when the drop period ends because I want to go to a ry a different school? Thus far, I can't get help from my advisor, nor the student body. Would someone be kind enough to help a 52yr old grandmother who is beginning a new career. Sincerely, Yolanda Vaughn

The staff is not very friendly or helpful. They do not return calls. If you encounter a problem don't expect them to treat you with fairness or dignity. They all act like they don't have time to talk to students. The financial aid department is never available to answer any questions and does not promptly return any refund that may be owed to you. I do not recommend this college to ANYONE. I would not even tell my worst enemy to look into this school. Save yourself the time and energy. DO NOT APPLY TO HARCUM COLLEGE.
