South Coast College — Local services in Orange

I love and loved South Coast College. The best thing about it was its staff. From its court reporting instructors to its paralegal program, everything is taught and intended to provide the student with the best opportunity to leave its halls with knowledge superlative to that of students from anywhere else.

What are your chances of obtaining a position in the legal office as a court reporter, paralegal or legal assistant? That is probably what I should have asked myself prior to obtaining a "less-than-godly" student loan! I graduated mentally prepared - but financially not quite ready to work at the rate at which most legal firms hire those fresh out of school!

Although I work in a field completely unrelated to that in which I was trained (I graduated from the paralegal program and am one of two people now running a surgical company.) I maintain the hope that I will become an integral part of a firm, foundation or group that will recognize my training. Hats off to you, SCC, the "best little college in...

I am forever grateful to South Coast College. Because of South Coast's amazing faculty, I now have the career of my dreams.

If you look at the list of new CSRs put out after each test, South Coast ALWAYS produces the most graduates. I came to South Coast straight out of high school, barely an adult.

Even when I meet other reporters out in the field, whether I knew them or not, they almost always are South Coast graduates. Thank you, South...

I loved the hands on experience I received from this school. Every teacher knows your name and wants to help you succeed. They take their time after classes to give you extra guidance. The atmosphere was always positive and uplifting. They all help you to try to pass as well as help to keep you motivated when you're not passing. Because I went to South Coast, I've been able to have a very successful career in the few years I've been a reporter, and I have them to thank for everything I've accomplished. So thank you, South Coast, for all that you did and continue to...
