Yavapai College is a great place to learn! The campus is clean and the staff are very friendly. I enjoy the weather in Prescott and one of my favorite things to do is study outside and sip on some local brewed coffee from a nearby coffee shop. The views from the school campus are amazing. The classes are great! The staff members add a personal touch to your education. I think Yavapai is a great place to learn, and earn a degree for reasonable cost.
Review Yavapai College
There are a lot of classes that will help give me the most prime education for the money I pay. Yavapai has tailored classes that apply to my degree so I feel very confident transferring when that time comes. the workload is hefty, but not over bearing or more than what should be expected. The professors who teach the courses specifically related to my major are experienced in the field or Criminal Justice and offer an array of outside opportunity for volunteer work and internships related to the field. I love my major!
Yavapai College is affordable, offers great classes and opportunity for transferring, and always has tons of student activities, clubs, and sports. The faculty works with students to make sure they are able to easily succeed and move on to their desired job or university.
