Average Rating
What I like the most at SJC is their on-line courses. These classes are nice because you can do the course at your pace. San Juan College is very big on student success and offers every avenue to help students with anything from homework to wonderful advisers. San Juan College also offers three campus locations for students which is a huge help.

Very very helpful in everything i have done. Always trying to give extra help with financial aid and loans. They always answer all of my questions!
Tia from Flora Vista, NM
For a community college it is a very inviting and friendly place to go for fresh out of high school students. The professors are all very friendly and work well with the students in helping them succeed in their classes. The campus isn't too large or too small to be crammed or to get lost in and the classes are just diverse enough to get any students attention in what the college has to offer.
