BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE! This campus is a mini heaven; beautiful, safe, with great teachers and amazing facilities. I transferred to UC Berkeley right after, and honestly missed SBCC. I would recommend to anyone, probably better education than many 4 years Universities out there!

This School is truly a wonderful learning, living, growing, sharing, becoming opportunity. I feel so fortunate to have had the chance to learn on this spectacular campus with such brilliant professors. Not only is the level of consciousness high, the garden gorgeous and the people kind and inclusive of everyone, but it is amazingly affordable.
