I am a first year student at Santiago Canyon College and so far I’ve had a good experience. I’m involved in clubs and student life and you can see me almost everyday day at school. I’m a student assistant at school and I love the experience. It’s all about asking questions!
Not bad, but it is super small and isolated. It is basically and entirely commuter campus, no food either.
Santiago Canyon College provided a great experience for a community college. The honors program has allowed for many opportunities and better classes. I feel better prepared to move on to a four year college thanks to Santiago Canyon College!
I have taken online classes at Santiago for credits and have been on campus/around the area a couple times. The online classes are fairly easy to register for and is a very easy way to get credits for university. The registration process can be confusing on your own but with the help of my counselor it was a super easy and quick process. The online classes I have taken all had clear instructions, assignments, due dates, and lectures. It was as if taking an actual class with many resources provided (lecture videos, easy communication with professors, textbook). My favorite part is the intersession semester where classes are only about a month long and all though it seems challenging to fit a whole curriculum into a month the professor I had made it easy to keep up with video lectures and did his best to keep the workload simple yet engaging. The campus looks pretty when I have visited and the people I interacted with were all nice and helpful.
My experience at Santiago Canyon College is something I didn't expect. The staff and facilty are extremely helpful and willing to help their students. I have never had a problem try to reach my counselor and I feel comfortable speaking out for help.
Santiago Canyon College is a college intended for students that would like to transfer to a four year college or fulfill general education requirements. The teachers and counselors here are all passionate and willing to help with any difficulties I've had so far. The campus is well maintained and there are lots of resources here for not only my academic goals and needs, but also just basic living needs (like food, financial aid, work, etc.)
It was not difficult to get classes for General Education but when trying to get Graphic Design or art classes there was not much available and many classes were closed. Professors were organized and professional overall.
What I liked about Santiago Canyon College was the teachers. All of the teachers that I had were great and impactful. My favorite teacher who stood out to me the most and definitely made the biggest impact would be my anatomy/physiology teacher. Her passion for teaching that class was out of this world and you could really tell that she loved what she was doing. That is what makes a great teacher to be able to come up to them and talk without being scared and something that all teachers should have. I don't think I would like to see any changes. All were great about that school.
It was amazing, the staff were so helpful and really cared for our success. There were so many resources on campus for every subject, so I felt very supported in my education.
Experience was great, they have multiple resources to help and guide through classes, transferring, and careers. They help through every step of the way. No regrets!
Santiago Canyon College is one of the most welcoming college campuses I have ever been to. The professors are welcoming and communicative, the on campus resources are abundant, and there are a lot of opportunities to get free food and supplies.
The professors at Santiago Canyon College truly care about the education you are receiving. Love to help students.
I liked how engaging the classes were even though they were online, we all interacted(the students). It was very good to see the different type of feminist classes, and programs that supported important causes like the red cross.
It is a nice school. The faculty is kind and generally look out for you. It is a nice campus with decent facilities.
The counselors are all very good at communication. The classes are easy to apply to and the professors for my classes were/are super knowledgable and helpful.
I really enjoy attending Santiago Canyon College. Its location is overlooking Anaheim Hills, and is one of the cleanest campuses I have seen for a community college. The professors are very helpful and educated in their field. More importantly, they helpful and want to see you pass their classes. Another important thing, is that SCC uses Canvas. I take a lot of classes online, so have professors that are very knowledgeable about the Canvas program is important to me. I have gotten a lower grade in some of online classes at other community colleges because the professor did not know how to help me. Lastly, SCC has a lot of programs and resources to help their students, like free therapy, a food pantry, and they even have a program that will pay for your first year of college there.
Great classes, professors, and counselors! I have had nothing but a wonderful environment at this college. All the classes I have taken have been interesting, and fun, and have been filled with learning. I have been taught how to use a proper growth mindset to be able to accomplish my goals and fulfill my dreams.
