Micah from Folsom, CA
Folsom Lake College has given me a chance to become a professional student, from a B average effort to straight A's. I have learned to become a community leader, as I am the Charter President of Folsom Lake College. They are also working utilizing their skills to help me stay in college, as my father passed away a week and a half ago (this is why I am applying for scholarships).
Dane from Orangevale, CA
Folsom Lake College is a very beautiful school. There are new classrooms and a new theater. The school receives a 10 from me as it is always trying to improve and grow.
