What Students Are Saying

1. Register early! Classes are filling up fast now since the economy went under, especially in the state of California itself.
2. Make sure to meet with a counselor as soon as possible so you can have your education goal and the classes you need for it put in place.
3. Show up for the first day of class otherwise you will be dropped. This school has a strict attendance policy where you can only miss up to three unexcused absences.
Chain from L.A. County
Always speak to counselor, and make a carrer plan before signing up for classes. That way the couselor will tell you if there is a prerequisite, and if there is sometimes you can take a test to meet that prerequisite and save yourself some time and money by doing so. Also if you talk to a counselor you will feel a lot less lost and you will have the peace of mind that you are taking the classes you need in order to achieve your goal.
Gipssy from LAWNDALE, CA
If you want to do nursing, this is a great program! However, be warned that it is becoming very tough to get a job with an Associate's in Nursing, as most hospitals are now requiring a Bachelor's degree in Nursing.
Jennilee from Redondo Beach, CA
Join a sport or the fresh year experience program so you can have priority registration. Getting classes is very hard if yo don't have priority registration.
Shanese from Torrance, CA
Always think positive. Even though the school is not near to level of 4 year university, you can learn lots of things here.
Raphael from Torrance, CA
Ask questions and get to know your teachers.
Joseli from Inglewood, CA
