Categories Comments Campus Safety I would say the safty is great because they keep it safe. It is a drub free envierment so its great for kids and it has smoking areas where you don't endanger peoples lungs. The speed limit is around 15 mph and a dog welcoming environment (as long as they behave)
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus I would have to say the most interesting location is over looking Columbia river. If you enjoy that stuff the days that its clear you can see almost half of Washington State (medifor). Also about a hop skip and a jump from there is the Astoria Collum where if you walk up the thounds of steps and you can over look all of Oregons beauty's that Clatsop County has to offer.
What to do for fun i enjoy to play video games but i don't want to make it my job. I do enjoy exercising with deciding to take Yoga because i have a bad back and think it would help out. I would enjoy walking around but i live about ten miles out of the town of Seaside and Astoria. I know that i live in Warrenton but i live two miles out of town that I can't just walk into town
Food and Dining This college has a decent lounge with having a plentaful sized menu. They also have, in the bottom level, a cafe' for coffee and other related items. The teachers are kinda flexable on where you can eat and if applied they will lend you extra time to eat.
Dorm Life I don't live in a dorm but from what they explained,is there's enough room for you to get some time to sleep wile waiting inbetween classes. If you bring some food, i beleave, they will let you cook it there too. I didn't look into the dorm costs but what i can tell they are flexible and afordable.
Academic Rigor From what ive found out the teachers are very supportive and they try to help some in need. The school has an excellent disability service, I am dislecsic and haven't been in specal education classes since eighth grade and i kind of wish i wouldn't have stopped being there. I have a hard time with mixing my letters up but the teachers understand this and try to help
Tips for prospective students If you decide to go to clatsop college then you have thought of a good school, they have a weight lifting gym that is flexible on the lifting hours. If you want to live on campus they have a flexible living but you must remember that the coast isn't for everyone because we get allot of ran and people would say we are to relaxed out here but in the long run being relaxed is better then being sprung over mid-ters
In three sentences I would say that Clatsop Community College has an excellent staff and a decent small but interesting school. They have all that one would need to start off there degree before transferring. The teachers are flexible and will work with the students if they need help with difficult assignments that no other student would be able to answer

Categories Comments Campus Safety I don't believe I've ever heard of anything bad happening on campus. Everything is very well lit and there are always guards around making sure students are safe.
Greek Life Sadly there is no greek life.
Clubs and Activities The best club to be apart of it PTK (Phi Theta Kappa) it's an honor to be chosen and it gives you many opportunities to enrich your life.
Great for these types of students It's a great college for someone who is right out of high school who isn't quite ready for university life. Also, its wonderful for older generations to get their degrees in a flexible environment that works well around work and kids.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The library is apparently haunted, but then again, so is everything in Astoria Oregon lol
Bang for the buck Everything is very well priced and you won't feel like they are taking your money, you'll feel its money well spent.
What to do for fun There is so much to do in Astoria for fun and college students usually get discounts at every place you go. There are historical places to go as well as more modern like the movie theater and also swimming pools, lakes, mountains to hike, and shops to brows through.
Food and Dining The caffe at the college has wonderful food and even more wonderful coffee.
Dorm Life The college doesn't have dorms but it has the most beautiful apartments right near the college at an affordable price.
Academic Rigor The college has challenging classes but will grade you fairly on the work you do.
Tips for prospective students Be sure to connect with your advisor so they can tell you all the benefits the school has to offer to their students.
In three sentences A great place to get started on your college education. It's a very personal and encouraging environment. It has wonderful teachers who will help you every step of the way to a higher education.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students Students who love small class sizes, teachers who will personally work with you, and who you can come to anytime about anything. They are each great educators and will laugh with you and help you anytime. There are even some who join students in other classes!
Tips for prospective students For anyone going to Clatsop keep a rain jacket in your car, in Oregon rain comes on fast. Also, take a P.E. class from Mrs. Toyas, it will keep you sane when your other classes are causing stress.
Bang for the buck This school is definitely a terrific deal for any prospective student. They will work with you to ensure that you will be able to attend without your education costing you an arm and a leg. There are also many opportunities for scholarships and grants, I personally received one allowing me to attend for two years without having to pay a cent in tuition or class fees! For those who are just starting out, or getting back into the game, this is a great choice.
Am enjoying being here Being at Clatsop is enjoyable. The views from the every window in the college display the spectacular beauty of Astoria. My personal favorite is the views from the science floor where there are panoramic views of the massive Columbia river. I also love being able to be around students when I want to, and be alone when I need to study. The lunch room outside the cafe is the best place to hang out. There are so many different people here, ranging from coming back to school to those like me who have just got out of high school.
Am learning a lot When considering Clatsop Community College for your education, my advice is to talk to students who have been at the college when you go to decide on classes. It really depends on your skills in each area to determine which teacher you need to be able to learn to your highest level. Otherwise, if you keep you mind open you will do well and learn a lot here at Clatsop.
