I have been visiting this little, secret base since receiving my honorable discharge from the United States Air Force: Blame my step-father who was a retired Naval Officer and he was the one who told me about this little base! Hah~lol! Long ago, I would bring my friends with me staying at the Suites, shopping at the Navy Exchange, and of course, buying gas at the gas station. This little, secret base is my home away from home where I stay whenever I visit Monterey; the Suites is where I stayed long ago obtaining my SSI and PADI certification. If it wasn't for the Suites' location, I know I wouldn't have received my pro diver certifications! Thank you so very much for letting an Air Force personnel stay at the Naval Postgraduate's Suites!

On the 6th of Jan 2026, I ordered transcripts to be sent to the board of nursing in Oregon for a job I had gotten. Today is Feb 1st and they have not sent it. 2 weeks ago I ordered a 2nd set of transcripts, they have REFUSED TO RELEASE MY TRANSCRIPTS per National Student Clearing House who they are contracted with. I have called about a dozen times, they never answer and they have never returned my call. Because of them basically stealing my money not once, but twice, I gave up my home in CA and moved to Oregon to start a job but could not because of the sole reason of them stealing my money and holding my transcripts from Natl Student Clearing House. I have been sleeping as a nurse, in truck stops because I have not been able to start any job in Oregon where I moved to because the Oregon Board need them to send what I paid for twice already. They are a bunch of morons there to hear me tell them my dire state over and over again in all the messages and still hold unto my transcripts plus ghost me. I will be looking to file a lawsuit on this dispicable Admissions & Records dept at Monterey Peninsula College. 0/5 stars for you lack of customer service.
