    Currently attending SJSU for my Master of Arts in Teaching and Teaching Credential in English. It's…read morea rigorous program that pushes for social equity and preparedness as a professional public school teacher. The classes are not too bad; most of my classmates and professors are awesome. I can't wait to graduate (again) in December 2026! Fun fact: SJSU's Teacher Education department is the oldest public teacher preparatory program in California! To go back even farther, I got my Bachelor of Arts in journalism here. My academic journey was atypical: I first enrolled in August 2011 and officially graduated in August 2022. I'll spare y'all the details, but I'm proud of myself for coming back and finishing my degree. It just proves that anybody can get a college degree if you really put your mind to it. SJSU is a world-class university smack dab in the middle of the Bay Area. It's gotten better since I first enrolled and its location will only continue to make it an enticing option for college students. $4,700 a semester for full-time enrollment is honestly a steal. If you can focus on your goal of getting your degree and block out distractions, SJSU is awesome for what it is. There is free parking on the streets off campus if you know where to look. I don't recommend using the gym, library, or student union tbh. They're overcrowded and noisy. Just get food off-campus and study at home or a Santa Clara County or San Jose public library instead; they're quieter, and you have less of a chance of someone stealing your stuff. There are some occasional incidents with unhoused individuals having public mental health breakdowns, but it's nearly nonexistent compared to the 2010s.

    I never could have imagined in a million years that I would be attending SJSU. I dropped out of…read morehigh school at the age of 16 after the house-fire. I am now 43. I enrolled myself back to school (SJCC) during the height of the pandemic. Anyway, though school is a drag because it requires attendance, hard work, attention, memorialization, organization, understanding, and follow-through but I still feel butterflies in my stomach each time I am on campus. The orientation was long and I didn't think it should be mandatory, but if you don't attend then you will not be able to register for any classes. Parking is rough but I have been lucky to find parking across the street from Banh Mi Oven Tuesday evenings. I had 9 units - 2 online classes and 1 in-person class. You need a badge to get into buildings, so try not to lose it. During orientation towards the tail end of it, advisors/counselors were very helpful. I scheduled a Zoom with a counselor during the semester to confirm what I need and don't need to take. Both experiences have been wonderful. I am majoring in Sociology. The student union building (eateries, bookstores, bowling alley, etc.) is spacious and clean. It's busy during the school year. They only have Pepsi products on campus and no vending machines! There is a cafeteria-style food area as well. It is near their awesome gym equipped with a rock climbing wall, too. I have not had a chance to work out there yet. I also love the fact that MLK library is pretty much on campus as well. I just finished summer semester and still I'm in awe that I am a Spartan. Maybe I'll get sick of it but so far the only thing I'm sick of is their tuition. I don't qualify for financial aid, so I need to take a loan (financial aid and photos for IDs) are not on campus so plan ahead if you need to come there or to the bursar's office. My summer class alone not including textbook rental costed me $1580. For once class. Thankfully there are loans. Lots of flyers and posts on their Sammy app. I was fortunate to help make individual tiramisu for the honors history club. I don't have time to socialize. Let's be real. I'm old to be these students' mom, so I'm not trying to be but I enjoy reading posts and seeing the flyers and help wherever I can. I'm registered for 12 units this fall. Wish me luck!

Though striving for an A might sound unreasonable and unrealistic but if you don't strive for perfection, what's the point of living? The counselor, Mr. .Grainger is great; accommodating and flexible to discuss the plan of action in order for me to get my AA then transfer. I am only 4 classes away. Granted, I have only been taking online classes but my experience has been great. The teachers are amazing. Shoutout to Professor Lahr. He was my English 1A and English 1B professor. My work schedule changed drastically and even though he understood that, he did not make it easy for me, instead met w/ me on several occasions to ensure I understand the assignment and what I need to to get it right. This pandemic sucks but if it didn't happen, I wouldn't be where I am today. Anything is possible if you give yourself an honest try.

I told her that the counselor brought me down here and to ask her but she still gave me an attitude (i have a speech impairment) so when i was stuttering a bit and wasn't getting my words completely out there she gave me a look of annoyance for asking her a simple question.

    All too often, student entrepreneurs are faced with the decision to either pursue higher education…read moreor pursue entrepreneurship. That was the very dilemma I faced during my undergraduate journey. Additionally, I was a student who wanted the creative freedom to further develop her technical skillset and create products that felt truly impactful. I was met with the dilemma of either pursuing entrepreneurship full-time, focusing solely on my degree, or risk burning myself out while trying to do both. When I was made aware of the MBI program at USV, it honestly felt too good to be true. This is the exact program I was looking for--a chance to refine my technical skills and learn new ones, dive into entrepreneurship, and obtain academic credit and a graduate degree while doing so. I am truly grateful for the incredible support I receive from my USV network and the leadership, and I could not recommend this program more.

    I first enrolled back in Fall 2019 when the school was still Cogswell Polytechnical College. The…read morecampus was pretty lively back then and there were always students around. Like a lot of schools though, things changed after the pandemic. For a while the on-site environment just wasn't the same. There were fewer students around and not as many industry events or speakers coming through. I ended up leaving in 2023 and came back in Fall 2024, and since then I've honestly seen a big shift. With the new leadership, the school feels like it has a much clearer direction now. There are more internships across majors, stronger career support, real mentorship, and more opportunities to work on actual client projects instead of just assignments. I also like that the support doesn't stop once you graduate. Alumni can still access school resources, get help with career opportunities, and even audit classes for free to keep learning. Overall it's been pretty impressive seeing how much the school has evolved in a relatively short period of time.

One of my favorite parts about the area is Montgomery Hill right next to the school - it has great hiking trails with a beautiful overlook of the campus and the city of San Jose. Perfect for a morning walk or catching a sunset. A big highlight for me has to be the pickleball courts and community here. The courts are permanent, well-lit, and have a great social atmosphere. They are slightly on the thin side compared to standard courts, but definitely ATP-able and very playable. It's awesome to see a real pickleball community forming here. On top of that, Evergreen has nice fields for volleyball and soccer, so there's really something for everyone. Between the updated campus, outdoor spaces, and active sports scene, EVC makes for a great spot whether you're a student, an athlete, or just someone looking to enjoy the area.
