Contra Costa College Reviews
Rating 3.71 out of 5 432 reviews
Contra Costa College was an amazing school for guiding first time students and returning students. Students here were able to go at their own pace while still being able to hold a job and pay for school. This school should be everyone's first step/introduction to college because it was manageable and did a lot for the students. It's a smart move to do community college first. I think some things that can change in on campus would probably offering more classes, especially for the art department. They should allocate their money back into education instead of cutting down on funds.
I have taken classes at CCC since the age of 15, in 1995, until 2021. From weight lifting, to early childhood education, to EMT, and then nursing prerequisites, I have had very valuable educational experiences throughout that entire time. Now that I am entering into the nursing program at CCC, I have nothing but great expectations about the education that lies ahead of me.
I like the flexibility that CCC allows, and the proximity to my home. I would like to see increased funding provided for the college, as the faculty and staff that work there truly believe in what they are doing. It is only fitting that they be provided the environment, staff, equipment and tools to continue providing a competitive quality education to their students.

My overall experience with CCC has been filled with more negatives than positives.
There's usually noone you can talk to when you have an issue. Their staff is usually rude & uninformed. I used to think for the most part the professors were great but that isn't the case any more. However most of my professors have been positive for me. However it is important to note there are some actual down right mean professors who seem to have it in on you.
There are some issues that need to be addressed.
The women's locker room is next door to the men's locker room and the outside is surrounded by walls that are windows. boys under the age of 18 like to look inside of the locker room and they can because noone used common sense when configuring this locker room. IT is an absolute humiliating experience with noone in the front of the locker room, it shows a lack of care for the students their privacy and personal respect. There are also no pay phones on campus. It is lazy
