In three sentences
Cosumnes River college is highly diverse college with various education, club, and sport opportunities. The campus is spacious and organized very well. Also, the professors there are great and prepared to have a great semester as long as the students are too.
Tips for prospective students
Interact with your peers. Also take advantage of all of the facilities the campus has to offer and build strong relationships with your professors. If you show interest then they will know you want to learn and will help you. Don't be afraid to wander in and out of the buildings in search of something new as there are tons of resources there.
Academic Rigor
The workload is substantial for most classes and fair since it helps one succeed in the classroom. Professors here are experienced and expect the students to be prepared. This college really does help one prepare to go on to a university.
Dorm Life
No dorms here.
Food and Dining
There is a cafeteria with cafeteria style foods. Also, there is coffee and many other drinks. The atmoshere in the cafeteria is nice and friendly. Everyone seems to be relaxing in there and just chatting before their next class.
What to do for fun
There is almost always some sort of activity going on in the quad. There is music and games. Also, the campus has many clubs to join and participate in.
Bang for the buck
Simply because this college has the title of a Community College many people associate it with a lesser education or a bad selection of professors. This is NOT the case. The professors are great and the education on receives is comparable to a 4-year university.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
As far as I know there are no unusual traditions on campus. As for locations, the quad in the Music building usually has many people performing at random times.
Great for these types of students
Great for all types of students! There are all sorts of clubs and sports and if you're not into that, then no worries, you can just be whatever you like.
Clubs and Activities
There is a club for just about every department on campus in addition to many other student led clubs. Also there are always flyers everywhere for activities that the students can participate in if they choose to.
Greek Life
None
Campus Safety
There is a generic phone number to contact the campus police directly as well as phones on light posts all over campus. There are also many security guards and police men patrolling at any given time in all areas. The campus remains well lit throughout the nights and early mornings as well.

Tips for prospective students
I have attended most of the local colleges in the Sacramento area and Cosumnes is one of the best for many reason! It's a relaxed environment with a very diverse student body. This is a great choice for working adults returning to college. It's very easy to get to off the freeway and it has ample parking in a very close vicinity to all areas of the campus!

Am learning a lot
As I am attending Cosumnes River College, I am definitely learning a lot. I know the classes that I have took here are building my general knowledge and helping me work towards my major. I have learned so much about different cultures, philosophies, amazing writing techniques, art, and much more. I love the teachers because they are so enthusiastic about the subjects they teach, which makes learning so much more fun and interesting.
Am enjoying being here
I really am enjoying being here because of the atmosphere that the school creates. The school is very diverse, and people are willing to work in classes with people all around the globe, which is very important to me.
Bang for the buck
It is definitely worth spending your money. The only complaint I have is that the books are very expensive at the bookstore! Other than that the classes, campus, teachers and environment are totally worth the money.
Tips for prospective students
Work hard, concentrate, stay focused and have a goal in mind!
Great for these types of students
I think it is great for all students, but especially great for students that like small classrooms and are always ready to learn new information!
