Good college.

I love this campus because it is Close to my house. I do feel some of the staff is very unprofessional though. Also, their financial aid department is very unorganized. They need to work on their phone curtesy. Sometimes you can hear them talking crap to one another about your questions.

I just graduated. My time at San Jac North was good. The school has a national top 10 rating. The profs are smart and take their teaching seriously. The North campus is smaller, so it was very easy to get around. It is a great place to learn.

the classes are pretty cheap. There is a lot of red tape to go through though if you need stuff like financial aid or if you want to sign up for classes that are not part of your major. Be prepared to run around a little bit. You can't really talk to who you need to talk to on the phone so you have to go in person. notalwayseasyifyoulivefaraway

Pass rate for the LVN to RN program is horrible, 15 out of 100 Nurses will actually succeed in this costly program. No credit given for prior Pharmacology credit. Mandatory software purchase $800 that is NOT counted for a grade.

they try and trick you into opening up a new credit card account by saying it is how you get your financial aid. They are really good about hounding you down to pay your tuition but when it comes time for something important to you you are pretty much on your own.
