Review of Merced College

from Merced, CA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

The curriculum is pretty straightforward, but some can be difficult. Overall, it is important to know the materials when it comes to doing well at college.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Social life is both good and bad. You get to hang out with your friends, but different schedules can be an issue because it is not the same as the one in high school.

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

The tuition is less expensive than going to a 4-year university, especially for those who are living with a low-income family. Also, if you are in the honors program, you will receive more scholarship money than the ones at a 4-year university.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Apply for scholarships, especially for you guys that will transfer because the tuition is expensive at a 4-year university. This also includes the ones for private and out-of-state schools. There are some clubs such as the honor society, psychology club, and criminal justice club because it is important to impress the college admission.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

This is great for any students who needs to save money and get the general education courses out of the way so you can focus on your major preparation.
