Honestly, I did not take every opportunity there, But from my time from Fall 2015 to Summer 2017, it was amazing. I didn't realize that until Spring 2017. It was too late, but I had made a lot of friends and connections there. The cafeteria opened in the knick of time and it was an amazing two years of my life

Well, I disagree with a lot of their health protocols, but, I do love this school. Its one of the best community colleges Ive ever seen. There are some amazing professors here too. I cant speak too much for how Id feel there currently, since I didnt really get to see how the Pandemic HAS affected the campus life, but it is beautiful and great

This school is one of the worst in the Los Angeles district (especially in the STEM department). For people who are going into STEM, don't. At least not at this college, a quick glance at the reviews of most of these professors will show just how ridiculous they are. Go to another college, and get the education there.

This school is terrible. The staff are horrible. No one ever answers any phones. You have to wait in line for hours to turn in any paper work to any department. ALL THE TEACHERS ARE HORRIBLE
Overall 1.5
If it wasnt for the classes they offer I would never go to this school. This school is a mess. Most of the professors are lacking the technical experience needed for switching over to online school.

The classrooms have no climate control. So night classes are unbearably cold, people wearing full winter jackets and gloves in class. On the flip side they can also be stifling hot. Classrooms face outside so the floor and desks are covered in dirt and leaves. Parking is a far walk to classrooms and lots of dark areas and no security,scary at night

The professor's are alright, the campus definitely needs a makeover. One thing I hate the most when I walk into school everyday is how the bathrooms are ALWAYS dirty.... its rarely clean!

The administration is the worst. I have been screwed out of three classes now with no help. Getting counseling is nearly impossible. I have done everything right and followed Pierce's instructions for everything and still have gotten screwed. I may have to be in CC for 4 years because of them.
