Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

Julieta from Lakewood, CA
I am a 41 yr old returning student and the learning is impeccable.
Majority of teachers come prepared for lecture and are willing to give extra time to students for questions.
Hayley from Anaheim, CA
Very friendly staff and faculty. My favorite things about CC is the beautiful campus, especially the pond and the ducks. It almost looks like a university.
Jasmine from Bellflower, CA
Most professors are willing to help students and have office hours so that students can have one-on-one time to discuss assignments and grades. But Cypress also has a learning resource center where students can go for tutoring, they can either schedule one-on-one tutoring or just walk-in into the tutoring center and work on assignments. And if students are willing to make a commitment to learning they can join one of the many programs, such as the University Transfer Achievement Program, the Puente Program, and the Legacy Program, that Cypress offers in order to help students become familiar with college and the campus resources.
Guadalupe from Buena Park, CA
I really like all of my classes, and I can tell my teachers really know a lot about their subjects. Mark Majarian, my theatre professor, really tries to push you to be the best student you can.
Danielle from Anaheim, CA
This is a new field of Study for me. The Orientation made me understand the excellent standards this school has and the top notch Professors they have, who are well versed in their Subject Matter, and well prepared to share their knowledge with us!
