De Anza college has made a big impact on my educational journey. As a freshman in college I didn't know anyone around me and I felt alone. I considered myself to be a shy person and as a first generation student I struggled with thinking that I was good enough to succeed in college. Due to the community I found in De Anza I wanted to become a more intricate part of the community. This later had an impact on the rest of my life as I began to work as a tutor at my college. The community that De Anza brings together helped me get through these difficult times. As a first generation student I know first hand how difficult it can be to manage an educational journey and feeling as though none around can help you. But with a bit of support every student can succeed. De Anza professors have been very helpful in supporting me throughout my educational journey. While it does vary depending on what professors you get I have been fortunate in having very understanding professors who are easily accessible. Aside from this in my in person classes and online classes I have found many friends. My peers are often willing to help me and others who are struggling in class. Overall De Anza is a very welcoming school that really does care about every student's success.
This college has good opportunities for any student who is looking for anything. A student can be in and out if they keep their nose to the grindstone, and will always have a teacher who encourages you to learn. This college has a variety of classes and will let you grow.
The school is great! There are lots of opportunities that are posted on the walls and everywhere around the school. I was able to know scholarships and jobs that might help me financially in the future. They are very well-updated on their events and the students seem to be hardworking and caring. I enjoy the diversity we have here. I was able to learn a lot of different cultures and make good friends.
It is a great option for a community college in the Bay Area. While the surrounding area is expensive to live in, the commute from surrounding cities is tolerable. The professors and curriculum there are wonderful, and there are lots of opportunities to be found.
The fall 2020 acceptance rate for De Anza College is 100%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020 , _____ students were offered admission. The number of males who applied was _____ vs the number of females which was _____.
Enjoy school and go through with it. Don't skip classes and think that it doesnt hurt to miss one or two, it all catches up. Then life hits you. You won't have time for school as you get older. So enjoy and finish school. It may suck at the moment but it will be for the better in the long run. And once school is done, have fun!
Coming fresh out of high school, becoming involved with a club or more on campus can make a positive outcome for your first college experience.
The best community college for students that are interested in transfering to an University.
For a community college, the students here are surprisingly engaged. You can tell from the over 75 active clubs on campus that the 30,000 + students here like to be involved and engaged socially and academically.
I like that it does not discriminate against any single person and that anyone, young or old, rich or poor, American or not can attend.
The worst thing about De Anza college is that they raised prices of the units so I have to pay more on top of the costs of books.
De anza is filled with many different people, which essentially is how the entire town is. Any one should attend this school! I really had no idea what to major with at first and was fairly nervous about going back to college after my first time at Brooks Institute which wasnt for everybody. But every one is soo different and great in thier own way at de anza and It felt very welcoming. So anyone should attend.
The unique thing about De Anza Community College is that it is the last community college that still uses the quarter system. This is very useful because when i transfer to a Four-year University than I will be adjusted to the quarter system.
This school is very diverse so its for everyone and anyone.
The most frustrating thing about my school is not knowing if I chose the right professor that suits me and my studying habits because it is more of a gamble and I highly rely on ratemyprofessors.com to get reviews from past students. Before I have registered my classes, I always search the professor's name on the website and see what are the student's opinions with the course and how the teacher's teaching skills is like. It goes from a poor, average and highly recommend scale and students give well explained input about the courses and instructor.
The teachers at this school have an amazing range of academic and professional experience over a wide range of highly respected fields. Their teaching methods are among the best in any community colleges and there is an excellent selection of counselors and staff to assist any student struggling with their education.
De Anza college is a very diverse college welcoming a wide range of students from different racial backgrounds and international students alike. Perhaps the only stereotype I had going into the school was that since De Anza college is located in the heart of Silicon Valley, the students here might be heavily influenced by the Computer Sciences field. This assumption however, was corrected as I saw a wide range of academic majors and interests here.
i could have taken up some classes during high school
