Sophomore: Sierra College changed my entire outlook on community college. I was able to start taking classes at Sierra in my sophomore year of high school; they had integrated dual-enrollment courses so students could begin accumulating college credits. I took as many of these classes as I could, and was able to graduate high school early, and enter Sierra College full-time in the Spring. This transition was made easy by the Sierra College counselors and professors, who all encouraged taking a non-tradiational pathway. My education through Sierra College has been nothing but advantageous. The college offers a wide variety of classes, which made it easy for me to complete my transfer requirements in under two years. I am now able to transfer to any CSU and multiple elite four-year colleges with 62 units on my transcript. In addition to this, the campus is beautiful. It is clean, feels safe, and fosters a very welcoming community. The infastructure additions to the campus are incredible as well!... Read 1,200 reviews

Sophomore: The resources at American River College are pretty good. The transfer pathway from here to UC is well planned, and you can transfer to most UCs with little to no issues. They have the Beaver Cares program which gives food to its students! In addition they have plenty of employment opportunities for students which help them to gain some upward mobility. Safety wise the campus could be better, because bikes often get stolen here and there are some crimes that happen here sparingly. I would also improve the selection of in person classes since there haven't been as many since COVID hit.... Read 1,476 reviews

Graduate Student: I went for the collision coarse before they stopped those classes but I really enjoyed the instructors and classes! Painting, electrical, and estimating were my top 3 favorite classes. This school is a great school to go to for hands on learning!

Freshman: So far, this school has met my expectations! I love the laid back schedule that they offer and the fact that you can easily just catch up to your work and stay with your class. I appreciate my teacher, Ms. Y, for being there for my class and for helping me when I needed it most. I still have a couple more months with her, but I know I'm in the right hands. The staff are incredibly attentive, friendly, and they listen to your concerns and any complaints you could have with your course. I was the person who put off school for years, my mom would harass me to join school and I didn't because of the simple fact I wanted to make money. My mom passed in October, 2021, and I enrolled into school less than a week after her anniversary. When it was official that I was a student, I remember just sobbing, a feeling of pride and sadness that it took me so long. I know she's proud of me, and proud of the educators I have guiding me. Thank you... Read 4 reviews
