    Am learning a lot

    The teachers at Antelope Valley College care about my education and are highly qualified to give it. I may be at a community college, but I still have to work just as hard to earn good grades as any other college student in a University.
    Am enjoying being here

    The school is community friendly and feels warm and welcoming. It also helps that I can stay close to home without commuting. The school also has many options to get involved in clubs and community activities.
    Bang for the buck

    With the rising costs of tuition, community college is a wise start for those who can't afford to go to a University. You get the same education but at a cheaper price which makes going to school more efficient.
    Tips for prospective students

    Community college is a great stepping stone for those beginning their college careers. It's cheaper than big name universities and you get the same quality education; as well as living in a tight-knit community that's friendly and enjoyable.
    Great for these types of students

    Anyone who dreams of pursuing higher education.

    Tips for prospective students

    get into academic counseling services and financial aid office early to avoid long lines. get your books from a discount college seller early, however, they do keep copies of textbooks on reserve at the campus library where you can borrow them for an hour at a time, until your text arrives. make use of the resources in the learning center, and take hd 101 in your first semester to be wildly successful.
    if you are a disabled students, apply to the office for students with disabilities early, as they offer amazing services.

    antelope valley college does a great job at propelling students into higher learning. it provides students with a great foundation in order to help students achieve their transfer goals. antelope valley college has an abundance of great staff members that seem to really care about their students.
    Tips for prospective students

    students need to understand that antelope valley college is there to help them as long as they are willing to help themselves. they need to take school seriously and not slack off because it is a community college. sometimes students tend to get stuck in a rut and i think this is probably why community colleges seem to have such negative reputations.
    Academic Rigor

    depends on the teacher and their work ethic. one thing that is definitely not tolerated is any type of cheating or plagiarism. students are responsible for themselves and should not expect to be treated like young children
    Dorm Life

    dorm life is non-existent but there are many nice town homes and apartments surrounding the area.
    Food and Dining

    there are many different types of restaurants that surround the area. chinese, italian, mexican, indian, you name it.
    What to do for fun

    well the antelope valley is definitely not the part town and although there isn't much to do in the valley itself, it is about an hour away from anywhere and everywhere you want to be. beaches, comedy clubs, and the best restaurants in los angeles.
