I have been at this school since the Fall 2023 semester. So far all of my classes have been online but I have enjoyed each of my professors and their class so far. Although my classes are online, I have been to campus for tutoring and for events that professors advised were offered for extra credit.

I highly recommend looking into the ASB, associated student body. It is the student government. If you want to be a part of the decisions that will be made for the students to benefit, I suggest you look into all of the benefits that being a part of the ASB brings. Book store credit, all-expense paid trips. school pride and leadership experience.

This school is beyond packed. It is almost impossible to register to get a seat in your class. Your chances of being on a waitlist for any stem class are 100%. Go to a different community college, one that is more helpful and doesn't take on more students than they could help.

They told me their software would let me register at midnight, but it wouldn't work until 1 AM.

This college has a ton of problems that it needs to fix. It is overpopulated by students, and it can be difficult to take popular classes. Teachers do their best, but administration does not seem to put any effort into making the campus effective or safe. I saw College Police Officers only twice in my three years here, and they just park in shade.

I definitely would recommend BBC or anywhere else they don’t want you to succeed the counselors make you take extra classes to waste more money which is beneficial to them. I got held back because I was all of a sudden missing classes for graduation when I should’ve been fine but my counselors tried to blame it on me.

Are you looking to finish your pre reqs. for your degree and want to be screwed over last minute by admissions because they can't seem to read your transcripts from another college right? then this is the place for you!

If I could put zeros I would, overall horrible school. Constantly having to email and call for my certificate, some professors do care and some really do not care only there for their paycheck. Safety there is a joke especially when they want to be hush-hush about it.

This school is terrible. If you could avoid it please do so. Make sure that you research what you want to do beforehand. Otherwise you'll be misguided by the counselors. They do not know what they are doing half of the time. The staff is very rude as well. Definitely get treated like a number here. Teachers don't really wish to teach.

this college is horrible unless you never go to any other college you will think its ok but it is a pretty bad college

VVC is a okay campus not the best. The counseling is more or less dry "my counselor knew nothing" EOPS counselors are way better. Food is bad got food poisoning. Campus is dry no real activity going on. You really cant find things out you have to check the boards on campus. Little to no clubs. And its a long walk for classes depends on locations
