Central Coast College — Local services in Salinas

This facility has a nerve calling itself a “college”, notice that the majority of students are those considered “minorities”. While you can obtain basic skills that you can just pay for or actually obtain proper scholarships, this facility sells them at an extreme high price I.e. computer skills etc. What is worse is, nothing a student “learns” (despite having to pay so much after FAFSA), is that none of it is actually transferable to any proper and actual College or University. The name should be simply be switched to “program for basic skills certification school” it’s that simple.

It’s plain to see this facility simply makes money at ridiculous high amounts for basically the equivalent of individuals tutoring.

Do not go here there is nothing a student can actually transfer as far as credits to an actual College or University as the “classes” do not hold actual credit weight recognized by the board of education. You’ll end up paying more on the long run versus if you had applied to a regular public college with possibilities galore of actually being approved for scholarships. Just go to an adult school or public college.

I also had someone threatening me if I didn’t finish paying my FAFSA with them I could not attend any other college. The adaucity. When you are in college (a real college) your fafsa acts like a temporary postponement since they recongize the actual credited classes you are taking. So there you go. Research and ask questions. Many of the students that went to Central Coast “college” ended up in Hartnell and succeeded with proper credits and...

This is the worst school you could ever attend . When I first started they made it seem like such a great school and they are there to help their students get an education, but in all reality they are just a money hungry school that screws you over once you’ve completed the program. When they make mistakes they try to make it seem like it’s your fault and “oh well” you have to deal with it and not them. Oh and Mr. Schaefer is the rudest, money hungry, most unprofessional person I have ever met! He needs to seriously learn how to communicate with other people ! I would never recommend this school to anyone else ! I was told by one of their employees last Wednesday that I can participate in graduation ceremony this winter and was showed my petition for graduation and it was all completely signed off and I was ready to go . Now today only like 5 days since I was told this now all of a sudden I’m unable to participate! Like seriously this school always comes up with something ! They are full of it ! Honestly at this point I don’t even care to participate in their graduation ! I don’t want to be apart of this crooked money hungry school any longer ! People don’t screw yourselves over and attend...

I am at the end of the Veterinary Assisting program and from my point of view and experiences, it has been an amazing time. The cost is high, and the work is abundant in a very short amount of time, but it is easily manageable. Working full time while still attending class, I was able to complete work easily and passed every class. The hands on you get at the SPCA is priceless. The people there are great and very willing to help you learn, and the animals are very fun to work with. One of the reviews for CCC that has one star is a review made from the experience she had. I personally met her and at the time, there was some confusion with instructors and we also had an over-sized class. This caused inter turmoil between students and teachers. Please take her review into consideration, but not as a fact. Some of the students that came in at the same time as her stayed and are continuing through the program. They all seem to be enjoying it just as much as I have. If you are questioning whether to enroll in the Veterinary Assisting Program, give them a call and set up an appointment for...
