Cypress College had incredible professors that I felt were reliable, knowledgeable, and friendly. I majored in both dance and radiology, and found both programs to be inclusive, dynamic, and rewarding. The classes at Cypress College are affordable. People here feel like family, as they are very supportive about your success! Excellent counselors!

Bad reviews
Overall 1.5
Wifi never comes through, construction going on makes it feel like a high school. The food is not great at all, usally expired and overly priced. The math/science building has a bunch of vending machines and a microwave , they probably haven't had that place cleaned since that campus first opend. One word, disgusting.

Yeah , What can I say? Parking, and the campus security enforcement SUCK! Food is horrible, professors seem to be getting worse. There's a handfull that acutely care for what they do. There for not all are bad. With a little more emphasis on who they hire to teach these courses and this institution wouldn't be that bad.

most professors are good, parking impacted college. their website and class reg. process is beyond horrible though. internet is really slow. bathrooms are horrible too. classes get filled up easily so make sure to sign up fast.
Overall 2
classes are almost full most of the time. internet is crappy (really), not so technology oriented. did i mention how antiquated "my gateway" is ? horrible website and app. counseling office closes at 6pm but you have to make it by 3 to be considered. no good computer classes ( not even python).
