Definitely worth attending prior to getting a 4 year education. You'll feel very prepared, and most of the teachers I've had are very invested in making sure you understand concepts.

You cannot go to a better community college in the US. This school gave me all the tools I needed to succeed at university. I would argue I was given a better education at JCCC than I would have gotten at any university for the first two years of college. I was able to successfully work part-time on campus and keep a high GPA in my classes.

JCCC is great school to start college. It is a diverse population and has a lot of classes to offer. Professors and staffing are professional, fun and helpful. Class sizes are small. Ratio between instructor and students is decent. This school has a lot of amenities offered and useful to students. Tuition fee is fair and reasonable.

They set you up to fail.
Was given a conflicting exam schedule and forced to take responsibility for the whole thing. True/F test questions are a complete contradiction to what is taught in the textbook.I personally do not know how anyone can or HAS successfully graduated and succeeded after being in such a toxic environment like JCCC.

This school is so horrible, they should pay STUDENTS to go here. The professors are really bad and the students start drama like they're still in highschool. I've learned nothing here except that it gets only gets worse when you're at your lowest. I also can't help but feel a loss of experience at this school. 0 pep, 0 school spirit 0 fun. Hate it!

The graphic design program does not reflect the current industry demands. They are still teaching old-school graphic design. There is barely any work in the first year and then a tsunami of projects over the second year. If you have a part-time job, you will be putting in 60-80 hours of work per week. I do not recommend the graphic design program.
