Review of Southwestern College

from national city, CA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I have learned quite a lot of new stuff here that wasn't even touched back in my High School, but even so there are some stuff that i had already learned so not everything is completely new. Plenty of good teachers out there with all different teaching strategies many of which are easy to get used to.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

We are able to choose our on schedule according to how fast we wish to proceed through college and how flexible we can be. Which is either by taking only M-W-F classes, T-TH classes, morning or afternoon and such. Main offices employees are always ready to help out and willing to. People aren't so bad, while not the most friendly out there, they are far from the worst. Easy to fit in anywhere really. Met my first girlfriend here as well so cheers for me.

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

$20 per unit for state residents. If you don't think that's cheap i don't know what is. Main classes ranging from 3-4 units per class. And with scholarships being offered as well including the FAFSA, CAL Grant, BOG-FW, and others you really get your money's worth and even more.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Keep on it, no matter what age, sex, ethnicity, race you are, this school is open to anyone out there willing to try and make their life better. Always be sure to stay on top of things or they just might pile up on you, but anyone can do it if your up for it.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Any student really, slacker? not a problem take it slow. Achiever? take as many as you can afford, Taking your time? There's other activities that are open for students such as sports, swimming, gym, and dancing classes to help take your mind of things for a while.
