    COC is full of diversity and people of every age. It is fun meeting new people, and reuniting with old friends. The campuses are beautiful and well taken care of. The overall atmosphere enables students to appreciate their school and makes learning much more exciting experience.

    Overall the campus is nice its a lot cleaner compared to other community colleges. There are a lot of resources offered to help a student excel in there schooling they just have to make use of them. For example: library, TLC lab (they help look over papers or tutor in subjects), computer labs with free printing (up to 15 pages a day.. still pretty good).

    I enjoy that the location is close to home. I prefer the Valencia campus to the one in Canyon Country. I had a class in the CC campus, and I will be sure to never take another one there. It is hard if you are a new or newer student to get into the classes that you want. Priority goes to current students and those with more units, but once you are there for a while it gets easier.
