I really enjoy going to school here. Things are easy to find, and if you cannot there are plenty of people who will help you. Have to be honest have not tried any of the food but they do have lots of vending machines. They are very safe, always let you know when something is going on and when it has been fixed. The call, text, and email notices.

Very good small community college.

This is honestly the best community college that I've ever attended. I wish I would've came here first. I learned more in 1 semester than I did in 6 years. The teachers genuinely care about the students and motivate us to get more involved in the community. College of the Mainland changed me for the better and I am forever grateful.

The school is overall very great! The only thing is there is no cafeteria, so don't be discouraged because the food rating. I just said 1 because of that. We have a campus police that is always available. The campus holds a ton of social events, especially during college hour! There is a ton of resources available anytime and everybody is so nice!

None of the advisers or administrative figures seem to know what they are doing and everyone acts like they hate their jobs. Good luck getting a hold of anyone via phone or email. The quality of teachers is hit and miss but nearly every class is an easy A because everything is dumbed down.

Okay school but it's a jr. Tech school, keep that in mind and you won't be disappointed. It's easy grades if you care about the class, if you need to attend I would prefer San jac, but if not the school is okay.

This school needs more money for the science department, they seem to not have as many classes as the need. The Nursing program is really hard to get into and very confusing to understand what is going on.

Some teachers are rude, like to make it difficult for the student and don't help at all. Don't get me wrong, I have several teachers that are amazing but the overall impression of the campus make you forget the good things. Food is DISGUSTING!!!

School is old and needs some updating especially the science labs! Mix of really good professors and really crappy professors, best to ask around or research before registering. Not the best school but is cheaper than others in the area and you can get your degree easily.
