    I am currently an extern in the cardiac program I've had a positive learning experience overall…read morewith this school, especially with my teacher, essie and the director, Rose. Both have been supportive, knowledgeable, and clearly care about student growth. I truly appreciate the instruction and guidance I received from them throughout the program. They have both helped me in furthering my education and focusing on my career. With that being said, I did experience some challenges with communication along the way with the overall school itself. There were times when I reached out with issue or concern and it would either take weeks or I didn't receive a response at all, when certain things were discussed or promised and I felt they weren't fully followed through. This made parts of the process more stressful than they needed to be, especially in a program that already requires a lot of dedication and effort. This is not an easy program, and it's important to understand that you have to be determined and willing to put in the work. This is not something that's handed to you--you truly have to earn it. However, I will say that if you remain persistent and advocate for yourself, the school does make efforts to support you and follow through. Overall, while there is room for improvement in communication, the quality of education and the commitment of key staff members made the experience worthwhile for me and I know this schooling experience will stay with me the rest of my life

    I am a graduate of the cardiac sonography program. With morning and night class time availability,…read moreI was able to complete the program while also working. It was hard work and dedication but well worth it. The program director & teachers have an open door policy and are always available to help you if you're struggling. If you are considering starting a medical career, I encourage you to check out HDMC. :)

    I just started this college UEI in Bakersfield and would like to commend how amazing my intake…read morecouncilor was! His name is Jay and he walked me through every step of the course and college intake process. He reassured me I would get the help I needed any time I needed it and has been there for me since day 1! He cheered me on in the corridors when he saw me show up to my first class and has continued to follow up with me on my progress and needs. Am loving this school and looking forward to graduating and truly appreciate all the continuous help and support I got from Jay. The financial aid process though seems challenging they truly helped me through the entire process making it seemless and easy! I would recommend this school to all my family and friends and say just ask for Jay and he'll help guide you through whichever program you're interested in!

    Convenient Location & Well-Organized Facility…read more I found out about this college when I took my State Exam here. Out of all the options, this was the closest one to me. The building is single-level and well laid out. They have an office, classroom, two labs, a lounge, a kitchenette, and two restrooms. Everything was neat, clean, and organized. On exam day, there were two proctors who split us into two groups, which helped things move quickly and efficiently. Plenty of parking available, and the location is easy to find -- no stress getting there.

    We belong to the medical profession within our family. My daughter has expressed her desire to…read morebecome a nurse. One piece of advice I have is for her to start at an entry-level position. I reached out to Bakersfield Memorial Hospital and my wife contacted Kern Hospital for information, and both institutions recommended Cellan Central Valley College. As it turns out, this college offers a suitable and accessible program for my daughter, as she is currently studying the prerequisites for nursing. She successfully completed her Certified Nursing degree within a period of two months. It is a well-known fact that being a hospital CNA is an extremely challenging and physically demanding job. However, with their thorough understanding of the hospital environment, these individuals are equipped with the necessary knowledge to handle the job in a compassionate, skilled, and professional manner. It is important to note that the top 10 candidates are guaranteed employment in the local hospital. Nevertheless, this institution ( Cellan Valley College) plays a vital role in assisting young individuals in starting their lives, and they should be commended for their efforts. Cellan Valley College deserves recognition for its contributions to the community, and we hope to see more noble establishments like this in the future. The people involved in this initiative are truly deserving of praise. Special thanks to Ms. Vena RN, for shaping skills, knowledge, attitude, and above all the wholistic support. More power to this institution.

    This career college is literally writing fake reviews of previous students. I know they are closed…read moredown, but wanted everyone to know. I created this account just today to inform anyone interested in knowing. When I found out they closed down and I wanted to see if other people had similar horrible experience has I did. I was flabbergasted when I found a review (3 reviews down) under my name. Which they misspelled my first name as Destiny. Then wrote a "glowing" review of experience "I" had during my time there. I knew it was "me" because of the name, I did attending during July 2021 and they had information about previous courses I've taken they got from the resume I GIVEN THEM WHEN I APPLIED HERE. I was horrified they had the audacity to do this. I hope no joined the program because of that review. My personal experience there was fine until the end where Ann (who I am confident wrote 'my review') treated me extremely unprofessional and shouted at me where students right next to us heard everything, when I stated I couldn't do externship hours during the week she gave me and asked if reschedule them another week. I have never had anyone treated me the way she had to me and actually demotivated me to continue a career as a Phlebotomist. Anyways, just wanted to warn everyone they wrote fake reviews under previous students name and taken information they had from their records. I'm glad they shut down.

    finally getting time to write this long awaited review. i don't recommend going here at all. Ann is…read morevery unprofessional and rude. carlos was an amazing instructor and taught the classes well. ann on the other hand is very judgmental and only ever cares about the money. ann called me into her office and basically said i looked unprofessional because i wore converse and that were a little worn down. unfortunately at that time all my money was going to school. she proceeded to make comments on my looks as well as my appearance saying i would be lucky if i got an externship. i didn't go through with my externship because while attending this school i lost my fire for the medical field because of how ann treated me. if you want to become a medical assistant or phlebotomist i recommend going to BC or the bakersfield adult school as well as ROC offered medical assisting way cheaper and it is an amazing program. Cont. I also would check the google reviews as well as the better business bureau reviews as a lot of them mention the same thing i talked about above! i'm proud to say I still was able to get my certification elsewhere with a much better experience. however if you are looking for a cheaper alternative this is one way to go just be prepared for how they treat their students.

    Bakersfield College is huge! It is a bummer if you dont know where you're suppose to go then you…read moredont know where you should park at. My niece is on the water polo team at BC and I went to her game yesterday. I just picked a parking lot where I seen visitor parking and started walking. There were construction going on so I knew not to walk towards that. I wish there were signs pointing where the gym was or where the pool was, ect. I just started walking, I saw the gym, it was locked. I kept walking, a bit shy to ask someone for help. I finally saw a map and saw where the pool was so i turned around and the pool was by the old gym , down the stairs. There were benches for the players and the guests and there were canopies. Some people even brought their own chairs which I gotta remember to do in the future. It was free to enter. My niece also said football games are free as well. It was a great game, i always love seeing my niece. I didn't agree with the coach's substitutions but that's College sports.

    I've been to this campus a couple of times recently for graduations, and I also attended school…read morehere many years ago. Walking around brought back a lot of memories because honestly, the campus still looks pretty much the same as I remember it. Some areas have been updated, but overall it hasn't changed too much over the years. One thing that definitely hasn't improved is the parking situation. Finding parking for classes was always stressful back then, and it still seems to be a problem now, especially during big events like graduations. It can take a while just to find a spot, and traffic getting in and out of campus can be frustrating. Another thing I noticed is that there always seems to be construction going on somewhere around campus. It feels like certain buildings are constantly under repair or being worked on, and the projects seem to take forever to finish. It can make the campus look a little messy and inconvenient at times. On the positive side, the teachers and staff I've interacted with have always been pretty cool and helpful. Overall, it's still a decent school with a familiar atmosphere, but there are definitely some areas that could use improvement.

I still have not spoken to a counselor or mentor about the process. The customer service is non existent once you are enrolled. They have yet to return a phone call or refund unused money to student loan providers. They refuse to email my personal email and require multiple sign ins to access school email. I refuse to subject myself to this abuse for what is shaping up to be a diploma mill. The class is a joke with without feedback or any meaningful content. I want a refund and all monies returned to my loan provider.

Posted hours are not kept (in direct violation to accreditation specifications), phone calls are routinely left unreturned, time lines for classes are not kept and the staff becomes irate when they are questioned or challenged. When I complained to the main National University campus last year, I was rudely dismissed with questions left unanswered and veiled threats concerning my complaints. I just spoke with the third fellow educator in the local community who was directly impacted professionally and financially by the ineptitude of these people. (please note that the ONLY Yelp reviews for National Bakersfield are mine; apparently word is getting around, thank goodness.
