This is an not a good school. To start out, the counselors here are not good. They give out the most worst advice out there. In addition, if you are someone like me who went to community college from high school, they make you take classes that don't even transfer. The one thing that this school is good is the math professors. Another con about this school is it reputation with their so called "campus safety". This school is very strict on parking and will ticket you heavily if your not a careful driver. In addition they are very strict on how you park. So if you go over the parking line they will fine you $40. Another con about the parking is how tiny the spaces are. In fact they are tiny that people are prone to park carelessly and hit your car. In addition I got many dents of people carelessly hitting my car and security not doing anything about it. In fact the security don't even care about you. Another con is that if you park head out you will get an ticket. In addition even if you contest it you will not be able to get it reimburse. In addition they don't give you warnings. So beware. To add upon that, the campus safety don't really care your safety in compared to other community colleges. I've been to coastline and other community colleges and they take safety seriously. In addition they have support for when your feel depressed unlike this school which offers no programs for that. All the campus safety care about is ticketing people and of course their paycheck. In addition another thing I dislike this school was how few resources their is to succeed at your campus. They have these so called tutoring but all that are not helpful. In fact most of the time the tutors are so greedy about getting paid they don't even care about you. They only care about the paycheck. An last con about this school is how heavily impacted it is. Compared to most other community colleges this one is by far the worst. So if your a person wanting to go to a four year University expect at least 3 years or more to transfer over. With that being said I would not recommend anyone to go this community college. Their are much better...
Read moreAfter high school, I attended Fullerton College for 2 years before transferring to UCSD in 2020. I had a great time here and I look back at this school in a pretty positive light. I had really quality professors that inspired me to consider going to graduate school and becoming a professor myself.
The Transfer Center helped me get a clearer view of my goal in transferring to a UC. I was able to make appointments with UC representatives (from UCLA, UCSB, UCI, etc.) where I learned more about the schools, their major requirements, and the expected GPA for admitted students. They also did the same for the CSU’s as well.
The campus was beautiful and scenic on a lot of days. After the typical craziness of finding parking in the morning, I appreciated the blooming flowers (it’s really nice in the spring y’all) and cool architecture. The library was super nice too.
As I’ve touched upon earlier, parking is definitely hectic. It wasn’t unusual for me to arrive 2 hours before my morning classes to feel confident that I’d find a spot (especially during the first couple of weeks of...
Read moreDumbest parking violation ever!!! It was literally the first day of school and parking permits weren't even being enforced; yet, they gave me a ticket. For what do you ask? They gave me a ticket because I parked head out!!! For some stupid reason they will ticket you if the head of your car is not facing the middle. I was between the lines, perfectly parked, except my car faced outward instead of inward. I didn't even reverse to park head out. I was simply there early so I drove through one parking space and parked in the next. The kicker to all of this is that I thought school might be lenient since it's the first day of class so I appealed it but nope. The younger parking assistant lady behind the glass is also rude. You will know which one I'm talking about as soon as you start speaking to them. She repeats things as if your stupid and talks to you like you are 10 years old. Thanks officer Ricky Songu for nothing. Seriously a "warning" would have sufficed. Welcome to Fullerton College day 1,...
