The teachers definitely share their unwanted opinions of the k-12 education which is not wanted or needed but I would like to see that change and just have them be proud where we are at today.
I like how the professors here at Allan Hancock are there to help us. So I can understand topics that I could not grasp during class; so I can ask questions to be sure I understood topic of the following week.
The change would be to stop overlapping classes in some subjects. It is not fair for students or professors that have to teach us a new idea while having to teach more advanced ideas to another student at the same time.

I graduated high school with a 2.5 GPA, I was told a week before graduation I wouldn't be able to graduate. My Econ teacher took pity on me and passed me with a D grade. She was the only reason I walked that stage. After the realization that no one can live my life, I decided to take my education seriously. I enrolled in my local community college and this is where I began my commitment to my educational journey. The faculty and staff are extremely helpful in my experience. They want nothing but for you to succeed with the goals you've planned for yourself. You may not have a goal. They'll help you figure out something that's right for you. I had no direction whatsoever, but with the extensive resources the school provides I was able to find something right for my educational path. I am currently transferring out, with a 3.3 GPA. I truly couldn't have imagined where I would be without Allan Hancock College.
Allan Hancock College staff and students go all out for each other. The teachers are passionate and the students are hungry to learn. The energy on campus shakes off the worries of “trying to fit in.” It integrated every student into different parts of the school and programs while still staying on track with their desired goals. It’s motivating. I would like to see more on campus related activities that bring us together as new students and young adults. Things like outdoor games, a live band, wine and painting, or maybe even a movie night outside on the campus.
Allan Hancock College has been a great experience. Almost all of my teachers have been very helpful, kind, and love their jobs.
I am currently in an Allan Hancock class while I am a high school student via their College Now! program. The classes I have taken so far have been easy to understand with amazing professors who are understanding and kind of all situations.
I was nervous about going back to school after being in the work field for twenty years. Allan Hancock college made this transition very easy for me. The professor are a great group of people with good knowledge. There are many programs on campus to assist students.
The staff is beyond extraordinary! Felt like walking in and being greeted by a big family. Everyone there wants to see you succeed, and no question is a dumb question. I was very anxious to start college as a 27 year old, and they helped me overcome my fears and anxiousness and I’m tackling more than I thought I would in a semester!
Teachers and staff are really great. They give you a lot of resources to excel educationally, there is tutors, jobs, and more. I am happy going to Allan Hancock.
Allan Hancock Is a nice junior college I would like to see more for the football team though as in money being brought their way but all Hancock is a beautiful school
While the college it’s self was small the amount of students enrolled was quite a bit. Yet the classes felt more personal since the number of students was around thirty-ish, this made the transition from high school to college a bit easier. With there being better opportunities to be one on one with your professors. Something I would like to see change in is the amount of classes since it is a college people from various cities attend as well. The reason being there was a limited number of classes and the demand was high. But over all it was a great experience the professors were understanding and the people at the various resource centers such as EOPS and UTC, on campus were of great help and always there for the students.
it is very good college and beautiful campus and the teachers are all chill. good classes if you want to transfer.
I really enjoyed going to school at Allan Hancock. I played soccer there and met a lot of new people, I really enjoyed the teachers there, they were really helpful. I Didn't have to pay for schooling because they offer free schooling for the first 2 years which was very helpful. Overall an amazing experience. There's really nothing much to change about that school it was amazing.
Such an amazing environment with such great people that are wanting to help you better for your education and to grow as an individual. They are up to date to remind students about how to get money from the school, registrations starts, grants, questions on majors, etc.
Overall it is an okay community college, and I really appreciate the hancock promise program. I've had some great professors and some that I learned nothing from. Other than that the social aspect of the school is lacking and I found it difficult to communicate with a counselor regularly in order to transfer, due to scheduling issues.
Allan Hancock is an amazing college! They will prioritize the students and their education. The professors are phenomenal and will work with you to become a better student and learn the actual material.
Overall a great school with lots of resources, if you know where to find them. The majority of the staff is friendly and helpful. The surrounding area has a lot of great food available. Not many great quiet study spaces.
