College food yum! Everything is cheap, the snacks are just as great. But the best part is that there is so many restuarant and fast food around this college. Theres In & Out, Starbucks, Subway, Carl's Jr., Taco Bell, McDonald's and much more. Whats plus is that, it is near by so the walk is not long.

It's great for any student, anyone who wants an education and who does not take it for granted! Everyone who goes here are ready to learn and that amazes me. Theres adults who has gone back to persue or continue their own dreams and educate themselves and its great to have Santa Ana let them in and continue on.

So many to choose from and you can join as you please. These clubs are so involved in school and that's a plus because you get to know the school better and get so involved in the activities that go on.

The academics are very rigorous. It depends on the student if they want to fail or pass. There is a wide rage of courses one can take toward general ed as well as major prep courses for transferring.

Will learn a lot
I hope so since it has classes I need for my major. This school does have a lot of specialized classes for different majors, which helps with the transfer requirements for most 4-year schools.
Will enjoy being here
Probably, although it is bigger than the school I am at and the parking is sometimes a little crazy.
Bang for the buck
Tuition is not terrible, and the financial aid office really helps with a lot of questions
Tips for prospective students
Get a parking pass-and ask for help if you need it.
Great for these types of students
