This school has all sorts of helpful resources! We have drop-in tutoring at the Math Center and the Mesa Center, and appointment-based tutoring at the Writing Center. You can even get free textbooks at the library! The professors are excellent.

This college deserves to be shut down for protecting stalkers and encourages people to abuse other’s emotionally.
The staff at this school will stalk your family be-mindful when choosing this school

transferred from the Midwest, This college does not help their students succeed which is probably why they have such a low graduation rate!!! I thought financial aid was s8upposed to be distributed to the bookstore first so that students would have away to get there books upon attending classes? According to the "DEPT" OF "ED" Absolutely no help! !

The school is a commuter school so there is not much social life. The teachers treat you as if you were still in high school. The campus is improving with the new buildings and the addition of the football field. Cheap place to get your GE's done. About 20 minutes from the beach.
