What Students Are Saying

For me, there were too many distractions at De Anza that inhibited me from maintaining my full potential as a student -- friends that wanted to hangout during breaks, students who didn't take excelling in school very seriously, and classroom environments and teachers who were stressed by the overwhelming number of students they had to fit inside small classrooms. Foothill College was a better fit for me, so if De Anza isn't providing you with an environment you're satisfied with, drive on up the hill a little farther and enjoy the fresh air.
Megan from Santa Clara, CA
The big campus is very clean and up on a hill surrounded by a lot of nature. There is a large variety of choices to choose from if your looking for and Associate degree. Foothill offers a spectacular variety of health associate professions. There are lot of clubs and association opportunity here at Foothill.
Lisa from San Jose, CA
Get into a program like tutoring or honors that allows for early registration otherwise it is difficult to get into the classes you want.
Alicia from San Francisco, CA
Just because it's a community college does not meet the classes aren't challenging. You have to check out the tutor center because i swear it will be your best friend because it has the best help you can ask for. Take advantage of the resources like the computer lab and teacher's office hours.
