I'm still a freshman at San Diego City College and only about two months in. So far, all my professors have been great (I have five different professors). The campus is easy to navigate through and all the staff are friendly and supportive. They have a little market that sells snacks, ready meals and various refreshments. It also sells Starbucks coffee! I personally really like the Library because of its spacious environment and comfort. It has three floors - which is plenty to find yourself a cozy spot to sit and study.

I love studying at SDCC. I’ve been at the college for over 1 year and haven’t had a bad teacher yet. The professors are inspiring, dedicated, and care about the students. The variety of classes and careers is outstanding. You also can’t beat the price of tuition. Overall great school and I’ll be sad to leave once I achieve my Associate Degree for Transfer!
Offered more courses than Southwest, which had been my closest option. However, perpetually under construction. No cafeteria. They make up for it with some pretty great food trucks on campus, though!
Also a good distance from Downtown, which has its ups and downs.
