420th review on 4/20! How appropriate :) I would have actually wanted to join the festivities on…read moreHippie Hill, but I decided to celebrate by writing this review. In the last 10 years, OU has been the pioneer for Cannabis education in California and the forefront of a powerful movement with the legalization of cannabis. I cannot believe how many successful and knowledgeable professionals today that started at Oaksterdam. I love everything they stand for and definitely recommend above any educational institution to gain your medical plant experience here. They are completely hands on and have the best teachers who have such extensive backgrounds. They've been around a long while and in that time the biggest names were produced from their curriculum. We all are witnessing a phenomenon before our eyes with this industry. I believe there is so much good coming out of this movement and OU is there every step of the way. I still have the original OU baseball shirt from almost ten years ago. So proud of everything they've accomplished. Richard Lee, you're the huMAN.

Over time the classes started late, and Natalie the dean, belittles the students due to lack of participation. It's extremely hard to feel encouraged to do the cap stone project, due to lack of guidance and your team mates being communicating through zoom. Everything they teach you can be found researching the internet on your own. Stay in the black market if you already have a foot in. There is no future in legal cannabis.

The most common place for students to learn business skills and to share cafeteria style activities…read morelike lunch and breakfast together. The cafeteria staff members are exceptional people. A tasty variety of fresh fruits and gourmet vegetables and hot meals made by expert chefs and cooks! I had good luck shopping in the textbook center for sensible and cute sweatshirts and cute rainproof jackets. This alumni experience was on trek by bicycle and bus routes as I searched through file folders for my relentless pursuit at academics. Nobody beats St. Mary's College of Moraga for its history and classrooms. Top San Francisco PD executives have complemented me on wearing licensed clothing for St. Mary's College of Moraga because their sons attended and utilized the facilities. Happy to be logged onto the "QUIET LOUNGE " -computer library! It's an awesome place to find the motivation to go with the scrumptious lunches- No worries to accomplish my tasks for all my files. Thanks for giving me a chance to print everything out and get work done! I'm so grateful for the library staff at St. Mary's College of Moraga because they really listen to my needs. Thank goodness for expertise to make improvements! Everyone is so supportive and dedicated! As a mother of 25 year olds, both my daughters are fully grown adults. They are both actively engaged in the pursuit of excellence too! It really makes a difference! My mother's cancer has brought me back here because it's so private and beautiful grounds amongst the gorgeous flowers of St. Mary's College of Moraga College!

While we didn't get to fully explore all of it's beauty, the areas we did see were stunning. We had no trouble finding parking on a Saturday afternoon although the GPS took us to the back of the campus. It was nice and quiet with only a few students walking around. Looking forward to going back to explore some more in the near future.

This review is for the EKG Technician Continuing Education course, Fall 2025, Concord Campus…read more The EKG Technician course is supposed to be an 11.5-week, 60-hour in-person program with instruction and hands-on lab experience, but the reality has been far from what was advertised, and instead a huge disappointment and waste of time. The start of class was delayed a week with no reason and no proactive communication about logistics - I had to reach out the first day of instruction just to find out which classroom to go to and who the instructor would be. Since then, multiple class sessions were canceled or ended early, and we had only about five hours of actual classroom time instead of the nearly 28 hours we should have had by the end of week 4 (minus four canceled classes). The content itself was very disappointing - mostly reading slides (which were a recap of the textbook) and watching YouTube videos with very limited access to equipment or lab practice (which seemed to be an administrative issue). There was no effort to make up missed time, and it's hard to see how students would reach the advertised 60 hours of instruction, let alone pass the course or pass state certification. The instructor appeared to have good intentions, but it seems this last-minute staffing decision left everyone unprepared, including the instructor themself. Attempts to contact Continuing Education for help went unanswered, which is incredibly frustrating for those of us who paid full fees (over $1,600) and commute long distances to attend. To make matters worse, the Concord campus at that time had poor (no) lighting on the walkway from the parking lot, which is definitely a safety concern for evening classes. Overall, this experience has been unprofessional and discouraging. CSU East Bay Continuing Education really needs to address the lack of communication, instructional quality, equipment availability, and basic campus safety before continuing to offer it. BTW, check your local community college instead if similar courses are offered, it will be A LOT cheaper ($46/unit for Cali residents)!

I came by here to get some books for school because it would save me a trip to the Hayward campus…read more Unfortunately, this place is out in the weeds too. It's next to a state park or in the middle of it. So, I came here because I thought it was closer. When I was in grad school before, there was a campus in Walnut Creek. It was in the middle of downtown and was quite easily accessible. But this place isn't. And if there is traffic (and there was) look out! I am glad that I don't have to come here regularly because I'd have to get out of work a good two hours before class to get there on time and then drive all of the way home after class. They aren't open on Friday or Saturdays. But I was able to pick up my books. I was going to look for some school swag but they didn't really have any. In the future, I will have my books sent to me to avoid having to come all of the way out here to pick up two books.

I did go to campus for somethings, but compared to my colleagues in those year round enrollment schools with no contact with other cohort members, I know that I got a great deal. My program was 100% online. I have a two cohorts that I worked with and they welcomed me. I do feel supported and now that I'm no longer in class and working full time I have time to get to some long over due reviews. I do appreciate everything! The teachers were helpful. The help I got through SCAA was also helpful. I loved the library, but wish they were open later. There is a space that's open later but I had an issue with them and stopped going. I felt supported as I went through the program and now that I'm on the other side and have my life back, I am eternally grateful!

My daughter recently graduated from Cal State University East Bay, and she recommended 4 stars!!…read more She did 4 years here and graduated cum laude, so I think she got the most out of this school!!

The graduation ceremony was great, good weather, easy parking, and we got here early to get some good seats. My experience here during her graduation and throughout the years have been very good!!!

I applied for the Spring 2021 semester, took hours to get all my previous courses added from all 4…read moreof my previous colleges in their system, among importing all of my FAFSA Tax info requested for financial aid (requested also on the app regarding AGI from previous years), paid all the fees to send my prior transcripts from my 4 colleges and high school, then promptly paid the $70 application fee.... I even wrote an essay for their HDEV program showing my seriousness and excitement for the opportunity to attend one of the only online psychology-related degrees I could find in the entire Cal State system of universities... Additionally, this happened after corresponding with Marc Strong in the Veterans department for weeks regarding my eligibility, my credits, etc.... Only to have the assistant director of transfers for veterans (I am a veteran) (for whatever insane reason she thought purposeful) DELETE my application in the system, completing clean-swiping ALL OF MY DATA AND WEEKS UPON WEEKS OF HARD WORK, because one of my schools apparently failed to send my transcripts for many weeks (even not answering her email request nearly a month after I paid to have them released, which according to them they DID send them). I received ZERO correspondence regarding them deleting my application altogether and today have been told I must fill out another application and pay another fee. NO THANKS! How is this the student's fault??? Why are we punished by you deleting our information and making us reapply and re-pay the exorbitant fee students could barely afford in the first place?? The least they could've done was refund my fee. This had nothing to do with me or my application. I sent confirmations the DAY I paid for ALL of my transcripts to be sent to Cal EastBay. They had a month. I literally filled out my application the day the application opened up, then paid for all my transcripts the next day, along with the fee. This seems very very crooked to me, the way that they do things. It's very much a transaction that makes little sense. The least they could've done was denied my application and left it in the system to reuse that information for the future... forget about the fact that I am now unemployed and seriously struggling financially to pay another application fee by the deadline of March 3 (not going to happen). What kind of school does this to a student? Doesn't look like they do care for the well being of the students, we are just another fee and administration process for them. Save yourself the heartache and apply to another Cal School that gives a damn. (and judging by Rizam's review a week ago, I'd say I did avoid more drama). NEXT!

Not leaving anything more than a star as I believe that majority of the professors here don't…read morereally care about the students learning capability or for those who claim they do severely punish that students ability to succeed that they inhibit and demoralize the students self worth. I've seen first hand how many professors can be cold and heartless and this place seems to be the breeding grounds for taking in professors who wish to push students away from their goals or dreams. Thanks for wasting our time.

Went to Chabot for my son's AAU games and didn't see the 8x11 sign that said Head in Parking Only…read more The guy who is head of parking was rude when he approached me to tell me I couldn't back in when parking. I honestly said I didn't see the signs, and with an attitude he said there are 10 signs. Where I parked, none of the signs were near me. The nearest sign was about 25-30 yards away. My kids and I also walked to the main gym where they played their games before, and once again I was met by the head of parking. He aggressively told my boys they shouldn't be opening random doors looking for their games. I asked him, did I miss the signs again because this is where they played last time. He said no and said the games were in a different building. I said, to help everyone, signs would be helpful, this way he wouldn't be irritated telling other parents to look for the other gym. We walked over to building 2900 like he told us too, and he yelled at me, my sons and other parents from across the swimming pool, telling us we were using the wrong door. It could have helped if he told us where to go. The door we tried opening was directly under the 2900 sign. I yelled back at him saying we are at building 2900 like he instructed. He replied back we needed to walk around the building. When we finally found the entrance it was 2940. I found this gentleman, very rude and aggressive with his approach. I am not sure if this is how Chabot wants to be represented to people in the community visiting. if any staff member is reading this, the gentleman I am talking about is a large heavy set African American who identifies himself as the head of parking and he drives a gray Infiniti SUV. Even if he is not part of Chabot College, simply being on campus and introducing himself as someone in an authority position makes it seem he works for the college.
