Mt San Antonio College Top Questions

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

Beverly

The number of parking spaces only available for students because we all struggle as college students to find a parking space we have to wait from about and hour to two hours to find an available parking space but this is during certain time frames. I myself see that the parking spaces assigned to our professors or staff at Mt. Sac have empty parking spaces meaning that not all the parking spaces are being occupied these are spaces students could occupy to avoid the waiting. If anything there should be a parking structure built, big enough to prevent the hassle of students fighting to find an empty parking space.

How difficult it is to meet new people and make friends. Despite the large number of students everyone seems to be very distant from eachother. As an out of state studnet who moved to the area without knowing everyone it made it very easy for me to feel isolated and alone, even in the presence of classmates.

The worst thing about the school is that not all of the staff are on the same page so it makes it a bit more difficult to get your paper work through.

The worst thing about my college is parking. Considering that we are a college that has over 20,000 full time students and 60,000 students overall, finding parking is really difficult for all students. Luckily though, our college is building an infrastructure in the next couple of years to aid students with the issue.

The worst thing about my school is how hard it is for transfering students to continue trying to pursue their degree. I say this because it took me over an entire year to finally get my financial aid pushed through the financial aid office. I gave my transcripts from my previous college to Mt Sac before fall semester started, and they still have not transfered over my credits. This is causing a miriad of problems for me. To top it off I am unable to use my transfer credits for priority registration leaving me in the dry for classes.

Alfredo

The only thing I would consider the worst thing about my school is that it is hard to get parking.

Mt. San Antonio College is home to a large amount of students who are all commuters. I honestly do not mind the amount of students who attend the college, but it poses a large problem with parking. No matter the time of day, it's always best to show up to class atleast 30 minutes earlier. I live only 15 minutes away, but because of the horrible parking situations, I must leave an hour early! One sugestion to the school would be to design and build a parking structure to accommodate the amount of students.

Briana

The hardest part about attending Mt.SAC is that it is on a hill, and we the students have to walk up and down the hills to get to our class rooms or our cars, although it is good exercise for our bodys carring our book bags makes it a little more difficult.

Nayely

My school is ugly. Seriously. I like a kind of place that inspires creativity and learning, like University of California Santa Barbara, the school I went to for my freshman year, and my current school looks like the most boring place you could ever be at, hardly an encouraging environment.

Tiffany

The parking is horrible. Disastrous. Pathetic. I had to search for half an hour for a parking spot the first day, while my colleague's went around and around frustrated and aggravated for an hour and a half. They need to build a parking structure, for the sake of the students. I'd advise anyone attending this campus to either get a class at 7:30 in the morning (as no one's ever there that early) or after 1:10 (when most of the students are leaving).

Nicole

The parking is really bad. The school sells a lot of parking permits but not enouph parking spaces. Which gives the school the opportunity to give tickets. Not to mention the parking is far from class and the child care on campus.

Kimberly

Cut backs . The cut back on the budget has made it almost impossible for my job here at Mt Sac to give me more than 13 hours per week

Elizabeth

The worst thing about my school is that it is progessively getting more crowded, classes are being reduced and students are having a hard time enrolling in classes.

george

The worst thing about mount sac is the parking, the campus has so many students that finding a parking spot is very difficult.

Teresa

The worst thing about my school is the student enrollment versus the amount of faculty and classrooms available. Though this school is very advanced in academics and extra curiculars, there doesn't seem to be enough professors to accompany this many students. It is very difficult to get class the are required to transfer or graduate.
