i THINK THEY HAVE A GREAT DISTANCE ED PROGRAM ESPECIALLY FOR GE COURSES, AND I LIKE THE INSTRUCTORS. ON CAMPUS COURSES ARE NOT TOO CROWDED AND YOU CAN EASILY CONTACT STAFF. REGISTRATION IS EASY AND ON LINE COURSES ARE AVAILABLE. THERE IS NOTHING REALLY WITHIN EASY WALKING DISTANCE OF CAMPUS, HOWEVER PARKING IS A BREEZE!

I love Mendocino College. All of my professors have gone above and beyond in making sure every student gets the most out of their courses. They are always available and truly care about student success. There are a lot of programs to help students be successful. I myself am a member of MESA, Phi Thetta Kappa, and I recieve EOPS services. These programs made me feel at home and motivated to try my best!

I think it is a really great campus with truly amazing professors. The only downsides are that its about a 3 mile walk for anyone that lives in the Ukiah, CA area who doesn't own a car or motorcycle, the food on campus also tends to be a it more expensive then I think it should. There are certain days of the week though that people from the college will bring in free food for the students and faculty.

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

    Mostly that I don't have to spend as much on my general classes as they do. It's very nifty to take generals at a community college level and enter a 4-year college with two years already done. It doesn't hurt that nearly all the classes will transfer over to a 4-year college of some kind.

  6. What's unique about your campus?

    Despite how complicated college in general can be, and how lost a new student can feel, Mendocino makes it very simple. Maybe that's because it's a community college rather than an Ivy League university, but it's a relief when you can just go in and sign up for a class, and even the larger classes have no more than 40 other students at the start of the semester.
