As someone who has been to other community colleges all around the state, Citrus College is the best. I came here after i heard someone say it is the best community college they know of. They did not disappoint. They really help you with anything you need. The facility is very easy going and kind. I love the amount of activities they always have.

This is the best community college I have ever been to (I have been to about 3), this is the only college with the kindest, most supportive, and community-oriented professors/counselors. I have never been more motivated to earn my degree in any other CC!

This school is way better than Mt. Sac trust me don't touch Mt. Sac it was extremely harder to get the classes you want. Here there is no waiting list unlike Mt. Sac. I came here after having an awful experience at Mt. Sac never gonna regret coming here. Join the Honors Program, EOP&S, and get Raul Sanchez as your counselor! Trust me on this one!!!

Excellent campus. Lots to do, nice new buildings. Professors are pretty good. Felt safe at all times, even after night classes. I highly recommend this college.

Very little opportunity for evening classes. Do not register for this school if you work full time during the day. I could not find any science class for spring 2020 that was available in the evening. The only option was online, which was already full because it was the only class. Also, very poor quality website
Overall 1.7
Classes are impacted so you need to be in the honors program for priority. The office staff are almost all rude. AP credit? You'll need to get it cleared before every registration and you might miss getting a class. Very few clubs, and awful food selection. But the professors are amazing, and I guess that's what counts.

A good community college for an introvert. Though it lacks diversity of ideas.
Overall 1.8
It's the dumbest design of a school. The student store and art store are quite a distance away. This is not a school for art students. You pick one teacher and they give you another. Restrooms don't have toilet paper or soap half the time. For an upper middle-class area, this school is quite poor. Even Compton College is a higher quality school.

Its an eh school. If you get the right professors, your time here will be good. However, if you happen to stumble upon many of the undesirable professors at this school, good luck. Hard time hearing back from the dean, president, and department heads when having issues. Overall its just average, but beware of which professors you choose.
