Once upon a time when this school was at the old location in Tarzana, it was great. No, it wasn't like most big universities with all the great benefits of being an established university but the school was small, had a dedicated community and was genuinely a great place to learn. That is no more. We merged with ASU. Lost a ton of resources.

CCH has utterly gone down the drain. During my time here, I've had money taken from me under very dubious pretences by the financial department, had to fight tooth and nail to recieve my financial aid, and been insulted and demeaned for daring to speak out when the school forced students to take classes they didn't want to.
DON'T GO HERE.

I left this school as soon as I could. It's a shame that things have gotten worse because this school has potential to be great. There seems to be a lack of opportunity, assistance with success and freedom with choosing classes. At this school, they always talk about wanting their students to succeed but it didn't feel like that, unfortunately.
