I had To self educate myself a lot more then anything. So yall need to hire with extensive attention to instructors. But that inner staff like for example the externship coordinator MISS LAKASHA I didn't have the best confidence going into extern hours but she read me well reassured me she had the perfect place for me. I doubted it cause I had to self teach myself a lot so I was nervous. But she pushed greatness and willingness into my ears and well couple weeks into it I've now caught a flow and things from my book which I was confused on still have added up in my head, point is lakashas Confidence in me with the daily checkups we have, was definitely a huge support and build up of this new confidence I have found, I can't wait to graduate And finally be in the medical field And apart of saving lives.

My instructor was Mr. Luis, and he's very outgoing and understanding, and the way he teaches was very helpful to me. However, the school office isn't really helpful, though. For instance, when multiple other students and I needed help with situations, they took their time and we had to figure everything out last minute on our own or we received everything last minute. Halfway through the program, they switched our building, and they weren't even done with the renovation to the new one. They didn't respect the fact that we were in the building when they started renovation. You'd think if we were paying around 60k for a program, they'd have everything together and ready for the students. Halfway through the year, we were promised new scrubs, but we never received any, even though every other program got theirs and most of our scrubs were tearing up. Overall, the program was great, but the school definitely has its flaws that it can improve on.

Of course like any new school they are still trying to straighten out the kinks. Everyone complains about the price but frankly no education and career comes cheap. Plus they have financial aid so its not like they expect you to pay the full amount out of pocket. Also, Angie does NOT get paid for students to enroll, she is an instructor at the school and is probably the best one.

She rushed my Son to take an assessment test and DID NOT let him know the importance of the assessment, I asked her was there something he could study before and she said NO!!! And when he missed it by only 2 questions, THEN she mentions you have to wait 6 months before you can retake it!! That's a long time for an assessment test that was only supposed to be an evaluation!! I feel her intentions were to set him up to FAIL, nor would she show him his scores, which also makes me suspicious of her intentions! We will be taking further actions.

I have never seen anyone go above and beyond like they have here for their students. I am grateful and look forward to my future. When it was dim there is light. I don't get paid to say this. I am forever grateful thank you Sjvc for a better future.

I had a deeply disappointing experience at SJVC Hesperia Victor Valley during my final semester…read more After investing significant time, money, and effort into completing my program, I was wrongfully terminated under circumstances that felt unjust and inconsistent. I was accused of misrepresenting the school simply for choosing to wear a beanie -- a minor dress code concern that escalated far beyond reason. Meanwhile, I observed other students violating dress code policies in the main hallways in front of staff without facing similar consequences. The inconsistency in enforcement created the impression of selective discipline rather than fair policy application. Instead of receiving guidance or a warning to correct the issue, the situation turned into formal action that ultimately ended my academic progress at the final stage. That outcome felt disproportionate and deeply frustrating. "Job placement" is a lie, i am still cool with other HVAC guys. Still lacking employment, hoping to do better than me. I found apprenticeship based off my own search. With no help from SJVC. For anyone considering alternatives, pursuing a degree through a CSU program is significantly more cost-effective -- often around 70% cheaper -- and provides more time and flexibility to explore which trade or career path truly fits. Taking the slower, more patient route through a public university can offer better financial value and broader options before committing to a specialization. Prospective students deserve transparency, consistency, and fair treatment. Based on my experience, those standards were not upheld.

I have been attending AVC palmdale for a year now and I am going to point out the positive aspects…read moreof this college as well as the negatives. Positive (1) They have a computer lab, and the one girl who works there.. I cant remember her name, but I think it is Jasmine she is nice and is very helpful. (2) You can see a consular and not have to wait in a ridiculously long line. (3) It is convenient if you live in palmdale. Negatives (1) No financial aid building (2) Not big enough for the both of us. (3) Computer lab needs to be bigger. All in All I rate this campus at 4 =)

AVC is an excellent school to go to. There are a lot of clubs and on-campus activities that makes…read moremeeting new people a breeze. If you want to transfer to a four-year university, there is a program that helps you navigate through all the courses you need. The transfer counselors care about the students and are more than happy to help them. Their goal is to get you to a university. The student service programs that AVC have is expertly helpful. They have a Learning Center, which is one of the most beneficial areas for students to achieve. There are FREE tutoring services for almost all the courses. From art to engineering, there is most likely a tutor. If not, you can request for one to be found. The only part about AVC that I don't like are the restroom facilities. They are always dirty, and sometimes a majority of toilets don't work or are broken in some way. They are also usually out of soap too, so I have to keep a bottle of hand sanitizer with me. All in all, Antelope Valley College is an outstanding school and is a great place to start if you want to further your education.

I did not take the name from the staff member, but I was baffled when it seemed that I was being…read morediscouraged from even trying to look into the RN program. The staff mentioned it was very difficult and competitive. And maybe it is but it is not their job to discourage or feel anyone discriminated. Not sure if my age or I hate to even say that status also was part of it. A more professional way to handle it would have been just to say "talking to a counselor would give you a better understanding of what fits better for you". Unfortunately this is the second bad experience I have at AVC I can now see why people I know decide to go to COC or moopark

APU was by far, one of the best decisions I've made. Honestly, it wasn't my first choice when…read moredeciding between various other colleges. However, once I stepped foot on campus, there was no turning back! I loved every minute of that place! They offer so much, and there's so many ways to get involved; you truly feel part of a community. I've met some of my best friends there; and I'm proud to say we still keep in touch, even after some years apart. Another great thing about APU is the classes, and might I say they're challenging, but nothing but the best. You get to work along side with wonderful professors, students, and members within the community. I had the privlidege of being part of the BSN program. Yes, it's long hours and endless nights of studying, but of course there's always time to have a little fun too! Truly, it's one of the best nursing programs out there! I don't regret one bit of it :)

This program was very disorganized from day one. My first day no instructors showed up. Also you…read moreare charged each semester for skill supplies that are not replenished. Also during my last semester the school did not provide critical care equipment to practice with such as A lines ect. Also the turn over with teachers is big and we were told by various professors that the pay for them is not good, which was very unprofessional to tell students. Additionally when clinical started you are doing most of them at high desert hospitals and apu students at these hospitals have a bad reputation for not being efficient with there nursing skills due to the lack of teaching at the school. Also there is another school in this area called Victor valley college that has very strong students so most of the hospitals cater towards these students and apu students get pushed to the side. Emails can also take time to be answered due to the director at this campus having to do lots of jobs to overcompensate for the areas staff is lacking. Lastly I want to add not all the professors were terrible and a few there have a true passion for teaching and are very good at what they do.

Karee is the school counselor and she was really nice and helpful to both of them. Helped them figure out what they need to take to get to their goals. She spent a lot of time at both our appointments. It's so nice to have a Cerro Coso campus in Tehachapi. Before they came here I think the nearest one was Ridgecrest. It is located where Monroe used to be. I can't really say much about the campus, both my husband and daughter are doing online classes. My husband is taking a math class and he had to take his test at the campus for the first time this week. Seems like everything went well with that. So far it's been a good experience.
