San Bernardino Valley College gives you all the opportunities to be an excellent student. I am a first-generation student and feel blessed to study at SBVC. I studied abroad in Spain and Dublin, Ireland. While I was a student ambassador for San Bernardino Valley College. This Spring is my last semester, and I am going to transfer to UC or CSU.

Valley college is a great school. Just like any other college, they have their good and bad professors. But overall Valley college offers many options for students to succeed, the faculty are well respected and care for us. It depends on how responsible you are as a person in collaborating with teachers and everything else on campus.

If you can avoid coming to this school do so. There are few excelent instructors & I feel bad for them,but other than that no enthusiam to teach whatsoever. FinancialAid is the worst,they will make any excuse to keep your money. Staff is the least friendliest & there are too many alerts sent to you because of incicidents. STAY ALERT AT ALL TIMES!!

This campus is the worst,the school over all sucks!Came to this college to retake two courses & from day one I had problems. They wouldn't take my transcripts so had to restart Math from the bottom and Financial Aid. Ugh lord help the financial aid department! They are the worst, wouldn't give me my money and stayed with it! Poor college etiquette.

This school offers no help whats so ever when you ask for help they make it so complicated for one to do thier basic things dont recommend going here
Overall 1.7
College itself doesnt really care for their students much at all. They dont try very hard with anything. Did literally nothing for 2020 graduates, with no explanation or effort. Dont really hire very great professors or check up on them at all. Extremely disappointed. Make sure to look up potential professors and ask around about them!!
Overall 1.9
This campus has no business looking this good for being so bleh. Really, architecture here is nice, and many classrooms are great, but overall the school quality is poor. Not the education, the shcool. Food sucks, social life doesn't exist, internet can be spotty. At least administration is helpful, and it is a good academic stepping stone.
