Chabot college is quite a diverse campus with many friendly students and staff. Because the campus is situated in the Bay Area, there are plenty of opportunities to learn more about the culture of other students.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
It's quite similar to high school minus your friends but it's a great opportunity to meet new people and learn how to live independently. As expected in high school, and as an adult, you have to be responsible for your own actions and attend class, do all the assigned work, and study for tests if you want to pass.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Some classes are definitely challenging as to stimulate your mind and make you work for your money. It's education after all, you've got to do your work if you want good results.
