    Bakersfield College is perfect for students looking to transfer or seeking an associate's degree or certificate. Transferring is pretty straight-forward depending on the school you want to transfer to. Classes are full and it is sometimes difficult to get the classes you want.

    school is a great place to start college, however, after learning the do and donts of a college life/student it can be a waste of time as many student take unnecessary classes. many administrator really don't care if you take the wrong class. overall education is an OK. and school structure overall OK faculty below average for me!.

    It is a great school to start your college experience for 3 reasons; Price, academics, and environment. The professors help you if you are serious about their class and it is great if you are a serious student.
