    Chabot College is amazing I like it honestly they are very supportive to the students they will try to help you in so many ways. They offer a lot of special programs to student that help them pay college, pay books, programs that will help them transfer and programs that help immigrant kids. The teachers and the staff are really kind super friendly I haven’t met a teacher or staff that has been rude honestly. The counselors are very good they will help you figure what classes to take if you don’t know special websites that will help get books for less money so you won’t spend much and even rent the books. There’s different clubs to choose from. A difference I would like to see is that they should offer clipper cards or something else for the students that use transportation to get to school. I honestly recommend Chabot to anyone great school.

    The professors and classes are very straightforward and very concise! The students are helpful and there are many resources that are available to take throughout the semesters! One of the things I would consider would be more extracurricular activities and more clubs! Otherwise, it has been a great experience overall!
    Great instructors, many course options, diverse student body. I have taken a wide variety of courses in a short amount of time. Two of my early childhood development classes were with the same instructor and I loved everything about her. My yoga instructor was also wonderful. My biggest complaint is just in regards to their administrative departments like Admissions and Records, Financial Aid, those departments are slow and you have to take care of most things in person at the offices. Even ordering a transcript cannot be done online.
