    The school is located just north of Seattle. The professors I have encountered are pleasant and accommodating. Parking can get brutal but manageable. The school does offer off-site parking, with a shuttle that runs reasonably often during peak times of the class. Relatively easy to navigate around school. The food choices are average. The school does a great job of expressing how whole the school is. The library can get loud in the afternoon. I have had no bad experiences here. I did take night classes and outside the school isn't lit too well! I would give it 4.5 out of 5.

    Shoreline brings a home environment feel to every student that goes there. The athletics and academics equally take part in the community life creating new opportunities for those willing to involve themselves. While attending Shoreline Community College this fall I was about to build many great relationships with other students while I played baseball at the school. The work study program that the school does is amazing for first time college kids getting involved with the schools athletic pride and spirit! Shoreline Community College is a great choice for anyone iterested in bettering their future! Phins Up, All In!
    It has a great learning environment, where professors are helpful and care about your learning. The experience can't be replicated in other larger universities, definitely the place to go!
