Review of Folsom Lake College

from Folsom, CA

Describe your college in three sentences.

Folsom Lake College harbors professors who have your best interest in mind. The staff will jump through hoops to help you succeed. The welcoming atmosphere eases the stress of college life.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Take time to talk to a counselor and set up an academic plan! If you plan your classes ahead of time, enrollment dates won't be so painful. Have several back up schedules in place to protect yourself from being unable to find open classes.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The professors have a way of making difficult subjects such as math seem easy. They are there to challenge students, yet help them along the way toward success. Reaching success is only as hard as the student makes it for their self.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The Java City coffee hut kept me alive during finals for two semesters. The cafeteria offers several healthy food options, and is a great place for students to decompress. As well as many healthful food options, the cafeteria offers several convenient employment options for students.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Folsom Lake College is placed directly across from beautiful movie theater and shopping mall, a key place for students to hang out. If students need to get away, the lake is fifteen minutes from campus, and several fishing ponds are scattered throughout the Folsom area. If you just need to take a break between classes, you can to the Falcon's Roost to shoot pool and play arcade games.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Classes are as reasonably priced as the government allows. Students recieve a far higher quality of education than they pay for at Folsom, and are provided extremely helpful services in the counseling office.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Folsom Lake is great for a student who is unsure if their future goals, and is great for students who wish to transfer to a university without overpaying for general education.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are always new clubs popping up around campus! There are several club-rush opportunities for students to explore more activities.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

The campus police are friendly and are a force to be reckonned with...remember to buy your parking permit!
