Overall 4.4
I have been attending Fresno City College for about two years now experiencing nothing but wonderful things. Everything is in proximity which makes things very easy, bus rides to and from are free after paying the original $5 fee, people are very social, most teachers are amazing.

This campus is not safe for anyone. There have been multiple cases of violence against students by other students and homeless people. People have been attacked, women have been assaulted, and food from Cafetariea is horrible and unsafe. There are other Community colleges please go there. The campus must be shut!

Most professors can only teach at a high school level at best. Plus, there just way too many ghettos student walking around not taking school serious.

The campus is gross. Bathrooms are gross. Teachers are not helpful and try to make the classes even harder, its like they dont want you to pass.

EVERYBODY COMES HERE TO BE THE BEST DRESSED. HALF THE WORKERS DONT HELP THEY GIVE YOU THE RUN AROUND THEY DONT LISTEN TO WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY OR YOUR QUESTION THEY ARE LIKE ROBOTS THEY GIVE YOU DEAD EMAILS AND SOMETHING IS ALWAYS BROKEN OR BEING WORKED ON

Overall what you would expect from a community college. Teachers are a hit or miss. Up to you to pick the right ones. Certain staff members are rude. Food is overpriced. Heavy police presence which can make students nervous. Overall it could be great, o terrible. Don't be surprised if you come across rude instructors. Good luck.

There is 1 cafe that serves awful food - over cooked, nuked, or no special dietary needs & they charge more than running to Wendys. Bookstore is never open early for the beginning of the semester. There are no covered common areas. People are hit by skateboarders. Women have been attacked at night - cops play video games in their cars.
Overall 1.8
So, pretty much it's all about choosing the right professors. Choose the wrong ones, you will hate this school.

Cant say much good about this campus. Except that I can say that they are unreliable. They have classes ready to be registered in without finding an instructor and 3 days before the semester starts, theyll email you an inconsiderate apology for the inconvenience. On top of that, a CIT class held on campus was moved downtown after students registe
