This is for Antelope Valley Community College. I am a student who is in dual enrollment. This means I am a high school student who also attends college for college credit. This review is for one of the campuses. I feel that it is a very good school. It has many opportunities such as hosting job fairs and sometimes giving away things. The school has many classes which are needed and the teachers there are strong. They know what they are doing and they teach well. I feel that it is easy to get a good education by attending Antelope Valley College. The campus is usually neat and clean. They have a nice cafeteria and places for students to stay while waiting for things like class times. They have places like UHAZY and student services where there are tables and chairs. There are many places to stay and in the Library, people can rent out rooms to study in. It is very useful. They have helpful staff and they are respectful and open to answering questions. The teachers I have had so far are so ready to help their students. They have many office hours and always make sure students know when things are due In all, I think AVC is a great school to be at. My review of this school is that I would recommend people in need of a great school. They have good financial aid and help for people who ask/need it.

its a good school

Kellar - 06/21/2023

AVC is a mixed bag, some fantastic professors and some incredibly unprofessional ones. The administration is a bit disconnected and doesn't communicate with itself very well, but it is a nice school. I personally enjoy the discourse and more of my professors have been impactful than otherwise

Shelby - 01/29/2023

Overall, I love Antelope Valley College! I appreciate the smaller sizes of the classrooms because you're able to have a more personable connection with the students and professors. There are a handful of professors who I've walked past in the hallways and who have made conversation with me.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    I recently had the opportunity to talk to my younger sister about my experiences, good and bad, about college life, so I know exectly what I would say. I would say, "Holly, you can't do this alone! I know you are an independant person, and you love to problem solve and figure things out for yourself but college is just a little bit bigger than you. It takes a village to raise a child and it takes an entire school to graduate a successful student. And don't worry if all your parents can contribute to your college experience is a pat on the back. There are ways to pay as long a you have a dream. All the money in the world is worth nothing without that dream. Take it and run as fast as you can but please remember to slow down every now and again to enjoy what you are learning and the experiences that you are having. Maybe if you follow this advise, our children won't have to feel like they are doing it alone. One last thing, don't be afraid of that communication 101 class, it will be the best experience ever."

  3. Describe the students at your school.

    My class mates depend on what time of day I take class: in the early morning classes there are a lot of younger students who just graduated high school but think that they are still in that environment, and the evening classes are filled with working professionals who are very focused and driven to complete their degrees.

  5. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    I would say that the worst thing about my school would have to be the lack of accommodation. I enjoy my school, but it has one major downfall: It?s the unfortunate fact that my school never has enough room for all the students to get into the classes that they need. Even if you are a priority student there are many times when you cannot even receive a proper schedule. In the end it might take three years to earn your degree.

  8. What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

    My school is not the most desired school to attend. At this time, so many classes have been cut; people are having a hard time getting the classes that they need. But as I am an athelete, I get priority. If I were to say what I am proud of at my school, I would definitely state how much money you save staying here rather than going straight to a four year university. Also, there are so many great teachers at this school that you can really connect with, as I have.
