San Jacinto College Reviews
Rating 4 out of 5 1,958 reviews
I think San Jacinto College is great! It's a helpful and cost-effective way to get your basics done and out of the way while not having to pay the considerably higher price tags that 4-year universities like to put on their introductory classes. The teachers and students I've met are all very nice, the campus isn't that bad looking and the fries in the student cafe are heavenly. My favorite parts are when the clubs or the school itself hold festivals and such. I've received a custom-made license plate, flowers, and even ice cream for free at them! Overall I'm very satisfied with my San Jac experience and would recommend it to anyone who may not want to pay the 4-year universities their high price for basics that can be done at San Jac.
San Jacinto College is a Community College that is beneficial to students trying to save money on classes. My experience here is great as I am getting an opportunity to learn and get educated from the professors that take their time and work hard to teach the students making them a better student overall. I have taken many classes and I am learning a lot of new things every day. The student life here is good, they have different events going on here in the Student Center every other month. The Student Center has seats for the students to eat. They have an event every semester for the students, so they can have a good start to the new semester! The library is well maintained, very friendly and quiet. The environment here is good and everyone is friendly and helpful around the whole campus. The class environment is very friendly, everyone here is nice and kind towards other students. The campus is very diverse which makes it more interesting as it is fun learning about other students.
I heard negative comments about community colleges when I was in high school so I was nervous to enroll. The misconceptions about community college are rooted around financial obligations. We always hear about saving for college or having a college fund but my school has amazing resources to help me with every step of my college career. Admissions, Education & Planning, Financial Aid have helped me so much and explained everything to me thoroughly. The professors I have had really care about their job and want us to enjoy and learn the material as much as we can. I love my school!
