    Academic Rigor

    It is probably one of the hardest community colleges out there, but it is a good college.
    Am enjoying being here

    It is close by to where I live and it is pretty centrally located ( close to the malls!)
    Bang for the buck

    It is probably 3 times cheaper than other colleges.
    Tips for prospective students

    The main thing is to study. Always go to class. I try very hard not to miss. Take notes!
    Great for these types of students

    If you want to do something that can be done in two years it is great, but it is also good as a stepping stone to a four year. It is great to get you into the routine of college.

    Am learning a lot

    Del Mar is one of the best community colleges in the country. Most of the teachers will teach you every detail that you need to know; I've been going since summer 2010 and I've learned more than most people learn in their 4 years of college.
    Am enjoying being here

    One word...awesome
    Bang for the buck

    Del Mar is about 20-80% cheaper than a university and definitely is worth it.
    Tips for prospective students

    This is college, absolutely nothing like high school. If you don't want to be there don't bother wasting your time. It's not easy, but definitely worth it in the long run.

    Wooo, well i am in the HVAC Program, and ALL my teachers there are State Certified A/C Technicians, and not just some teacher, they know what they are teaching and i am receiving very valuable knowledge. but i know for a fact that each department the teachers that teach all have a degree in what they themselves are teaching.
    Am enjoying being here

    The environment is really great, all the students mind their own business, there's no disruptions, and students are by far very respectable, a great learning environment.
    Bang for the buck

    This is the best part! Its not even expensive at all, tuition is fairly cheap, i hear the tuition my friends pay in other colleges and i am privileged that i don't pay as much.
    Tips for prospective students

    Well, just check what classes you need, since Del Mar has 2 main Buildings, East and West Campus. Over at East Campus you take your basics, and over at West Campus, you take classes for your profession and others.
    Great for these types of students

    All types really, they have great programs, and i would recommend it to everyone!

    Coming back to continue my college education, I am still very pleased w/ the professors here. They work w/ you to make sure you understand what your are doing.
    Am enjoying being here

    The students as well as staff here are very plesant to be around. It gives off a good vibe to be one of the students in such a good community college
    Bang for the buck

    this community college is so much less than going to a University but still you get top knotch teachers!
    Tips for prospective students

    Do your Financial Aid early and register on time. If you are pushing the deadlines of them, you will be left to run around picking up what you didnt do earlier.. make your start to college a smooth transaction and get it done early.
    Great for these types of students

    Honestly... i would have to say all types...this school has opportunities for everyone
