Merritt college is a wonderful place. The food is actually really good! It has a good breakfast which contains pancakes, waffles, cereal, fruits, or oatmeal. They balance out the menu for people who want to eat healthy. They have salads and vegetarian burgers. Aside from that they have really good burgers, fries and French toast!

I attended Merritt College for 2.5 years and I loved my experience at this community college. Most of the professors I've had were very kind and helpful if you ask them for help individually. My favorite part of the college is probably the students. Students at Merritt College are very friendly and supportive, and are good at working together in teams. Also, the cafeteria has many food options and the food tastes great in my opinion. Lastly, counselors at Merritt are very helpful with academic advising, career counseling, and a lot more. There are very few staff members and even counselors who are careless when doing their job and helping students, but most are extremely kind if you talk to the right people (:
