    I love P.C.C. It has a beautiful campus and staff here, and truly the home of the Rose Parade.

    1. Cleanness & Parking- clean, no trash on floor, parking permit required during semesters & two parking structures for students lot 3, 4, & 5 2. Contactless payment- yes, apple pay accepted 3. Reservations/Appointment - a lot of virtual appointments can be made, don't really see walk up services available but website is extremely helpful 4. Customer Service/Assistance - all staff/professors have been nice, especially my counselor Elizabeth Nicho, extremely helpful and finds answers regardless if she doesn't know she does research 5. Food - food is on the pricier side, it's ok but microwaves are available in the CC building 6. Health Grade - none posted in my reviews each star is given when they meet all my top necessities overall, definitely would return great quality of professors who actually care & take the time to teach you. This community college is really set up to help one another I'm amazed with how many services are offered as I went along my journey. When you take Math courses you can rent the calculator from the library. The Math Success Center is amazing. So much help offered and it's so organized when I visit them. It is bothering me their are less and less evening classes available for the working class, but my pool of classes I need are getting smaller & smaller

    Nice campus and safe location. Rich students that can expand your network and good facility that can help you with learning. I would want to study here, also.

    Ask the Community - Pasadena City College

    I'm a senior in high school and recently when I was applying I was told to choose a term and they were "winter/spring 2020"and "summer/fall 2020". I was confused on whether I had to choose summer/fall or if I have to wait for an only fall option?

    You would choose summer/fall because they are talking about both terms.

    Does PCC offer a dental hygiene program?

    Yes, they do

    Can we bring pets to class?

    Wth kind of question...

My husband and I used to say, "I know if she can just get in, she will find her place there". This is her first year, and I can't say enough good things about this school. Besides having top notch education in mechanical engineering (her major) and research, the campus does an amazing job of keeping families involved, and also making the students feel at home. My daughter was so excited to go back to campus after winter break. She loves living on campus, and knows her professors. She has already hinted she may want to stay over for research opportunities during summer. And what is a plus is that she is just as excited to tell me about their social events. Lastly, I also love that they invited the families on campus the first week of school. We get caught up with monthly emails and video meetings. What an amazing institute all around.

These are recent photographs I took to show the magnificent architecture and brilliant landscaping of the Pasadena institution that, like few others, speaks to the importance and the majesty of the sciences. We don't need to pay for expensive trips to parks anywhere else, if we live in the Los Angeles area. Pasadena itself is the crown of Southern California and CalTech is its diadem. Look at my stylized shots and decide for yourself. Who wouldn't want to spend an afternoon here? Have lunch and then take your tea and cookies to the campus within walking distance of Old Town Pasadena. Hyacinths for the soul ...

The staff that I remembered had moved on, retired or passed, all except Mr. Allen; he's the head instructor now. I especially remembered Ms. Brown who was up in age but was a fabulous dresser and an excellent instructor. Mr. Allen who's been an instructor there for approximately 18 years hasn't changed much in appearance and he's still wearing that beautiful Kodak smile that he freely shares with students, staff and customers. I went to the school yesterday, 12/12/25 and got a wonderful, soothing facial by Brooklyn and stay put beautiful gel nails by Angel, two talented and creative and goal oriented young ladies; I pry that their dreams are realized. Today, after my hair color sensitivity test was negative, an amazing student by the name of Adriano was assigned to do my hair color and blow dry. Adriano, whom I believe will have his own salon one day washed my hair like a Professional, he wasn't afraid to get in there with his hands, massaging the scalp as he went along; it was a great wash! He paid attention to detail, making sure that every strand of my roots was colored with the rich, golden hair color and making sure that I was comfortable during the process. I chuckled a couple of times as he navigated through my hair coming to a couple of kinks; I was impressed of how he combed through them not with tension, but with finesse. Well, the roots turned out a little darker than expected but it's okay, I'll go back after winter break and get a redo. Overall, the experience was wonderful, the prices were affordable and, I didn't have a long wait. Not only did I not have a long wait, I was able to watch the students at work, I saw amazing press on nails creations by Angel and Brooklyn and a patchwork hair color that one student had under instructor Nikki who is amazing, professional and knowledgeable. Well, today was the students last day before winter break; they'll return January 5th and I'll return also to continue services with Adriano for my hair, and Angel for my nails; Brooklyn graduated yesterday. Okay, so for those of you that want to keep your hard earned money in your pocket or purse, go to Pasadena City College's School of Cosmetology, you might like it like I do, or like many of the other customers I saw. And remember, these are students under very good guidance from Nikki and Mr. Allen.

    When researching schools, you are at the mercy of the reviews written about that school. You must…read morediscern if all the praise or all the warnings are truthful and accurate. When I researched the master's program for marriage and family therapy at Pacific Oaks College, I noticed several reviews that praised this program and only three reviews that warned future students about attending this college. I assumed these three people were just bitter and angry individuals. Surprisingly, these three people were telling the truth. Pacific Oaks College falsely claims to be there for the students in all situations. They claim that since they are a smaller college they have the unique ability to get to know the students and be their advocate. When the students enter the practicum portion of the program, Pacific Oaks promises they will ensure that each practicum site will provide the education, experience and supervision required for each student to graduate. All of this is a lie. Just as the three negative but truthful reviews mentioned once this college gets your money, they are no longer available to you. If you are having issues at your practicum site, they will not advocate for you or assist you or intervene on your behalf. Certain sites especially for the LGBTQI specialty cohort and practicum sites that are at schools do not offer enough hours, so you end up having to take an additional semester of practicum. You may not be eligible to graduate with your cohort if you cannot gain enough hours. Pre-practicum classes are a joke. At each practicum site you are in group supervision with students from other colleges. I had students from Azusa Pacific and Loyola Marymount students in my group supervision. My basic knowledge on practicum etiquette was lacking. I did not know half as much as they knew, so it was extremely embarrassing knowing that we had not been properly prepared for practicum. Speaking of being prepared, be careful with the professors at this school. If you oppose certain professors' views or ask clarifying questions to certain professors, they may feel challenged by you. If they feel challenged, they will retaliate, and you will see a noticeable drop in your future grades for that class. Your best bet is to agree with everything they say, and smile and nod during classroom discussions. If you are fortunate enough to enroll in a class taught by Dr. Erica Rodriguez, Dr. Eugenia Rodriguez, Dr. Creet, Professor October, Professor Julie Walker or Professor Edward Bielecki NOT S. Bielecki consider yourself fortunate and absorb all that they teach you. They are solid instructors with a wealth of knowledge. Beware of Professor Paige, S. Bielecki, and D. Doyle. Also, no matter how sincere Dr. Kami sounds he will not assist you or follow through with whatever promise he says he will do. Lastly, make copies of EVERY document you have for pre-practicum and each semester of practicum. These documents are required for graduation, and some are sent to the Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS) once you graduate. The practicum coordinator lost our documents FIVE times. We were scrambling trying to locate files and resubmit them in order to graduate and receive our associate number. I really hope you heed my warning just as I wished I had believed the three honest reviews when I was researching this school. Save yourself the money, stress and frustration. Go to a different college!!!!!

    WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT…read more I am writing to express my disappointment with the lack of communication and follow through from your team. I had a scheduled video call with Cody J. and he never showed up, nor did he send an email to reschedule. I waited online for well over 10 minutes and when I reached out to him, I received no response. This was incredibly frustrating as I had been looking forward to having my questions answered about your doctorate program. After not hearing back from Cody, I attempted to schedule another call online in hopes of speaking with someone else. Unfortunately, I did not receive a response from anyone on your team. It has now been over 2 weeks and I have yet to receive a follow up or phone call regarding my interest in the program. I had high hopes for Pacific Oaks and was excited about the possibility of pursuing my doctorate with your institution. However, the lack of communication and follow through has left me feeling disappointed and frustrated. I hope that in the future, your team can improve in this area to better support potential students like myself.

The professors engage with the students in personal and personable ways. The Witherspoon Scholarship Program (their honors curriculum) is superb. And, above all, they are thoroughly biblical in their approach to all their subjects, whether they be biblical studies, theology, education, science, history, whatever. I have also found the faculty and staff to be pastoral in their treatment and oversight of their students. Because they are a smaller college, Providence might not have every major available under the sun, but if they offer what you're looking for, you'll find a Christian-centered, grace-driven, biblically-based education on offer with a small tight-knit community of students who look out and support one another. Some more comments: * Providence is, to the best of my knowledge, the only conservative Reformed college west of the Mississippi (that might matter to some people). * Also, my son is a student at the school (a junior at the time of writing). We are minorities and there are other minorities (Hispanic, Black, Asian) at the school. Our direct experience has been that Providence is accepting, supportive and affirming of all students, regardless of sex, race or ethnicity.

In addition to what you may expect "Bible study" to be, as I had been doing it for all of my Christian life, this approach focuses heavily on parsing essential Greek or Hebrew words (I often tell people some of those words cannot be accurately translated in less than a paragraph), on details of historical and cultural contexts (context is everything!), and on identification of authors and their biographies. All of this is highly important; yet after I while I began to feel bogged down in minutiae. Another major approach is Systematic Theology. This formulates doctrinal overviews overarching all of what the Bible and the Christian Church teach. It's great for developing a biblically-based worldview, for enabling us to bring together perspectives that may superficially appear widely divergent. Eventually, though, I began to it could be too much of an ivory tower head trip (the same reaction I had to my undergraduate philosophy course, BTW). What I discovered at Fuller was a great middle ground: Biblical Theology. This bridges Biblical Studies and Systematic Theology, crucially incorporating indispensable elements of both; yet the focus is on what the scripture actually teaches. Biblical Theology is the conclusion of the quests of Biblical Studies and Systematic Theology. Biblical Theology is what I fell in love with. It's the core of the ministries the Lord has me in now.

Not only is it extremely informative, but George also gives you a booklet with all the necessary forms needed to get started. The seminar goes step-by-step on how to complete the forms from filing for the non-profit to obtaining a seller's permit. Not to mention George has been very helpful if I have a quick question, I can just e-mail him and he answers right away. I feel so much more comfortable venturing out in this field now that I know the legalities and logistics on how the business needs to be run to be compliant with state laws.
