You will learn here if you pay attention in class but that's really all there is, class.

It's one of those schools you go to because you live in town. I'd go somewhere else if you can.

If you are an online student, you might have a nasty surprise: if you take 12 units and have 50% or more W grades (even over a period of years), you will be on academic probation and will have to try to contact a professor. No one tells you this BEFORE you enroll in the 12th UNIT!!!

Decent campus, Don't listen to the Counselors. multiple different counselors have given me wrong information and have costed me money and time because they have forgotten to put classes on my Education Plan.

I used to like it at first, but my morale for this college started to decline due to the negative changes and poor management that have been taken place lately. I might have to transfer to a different community college because some of the Social Science professor, counselors, and other staff members are unethical. Attend at your own risk!
