My all-inclusive thoughts regarding my experience at Pierce College would be the alethic department is pretty well established and funded within the school environment as well as the upkeep is very well maintained. I believe they have a variety of classes to choose from to get college credits and just because it's a community doesn't mean anything less for credits gained during my time online with this college. Highly recommend it for someone needing some college credits!
I greatly enjoyed my experience at this community college. Over the 2 years that I have spent here I had amazing professors and classes. Every one of the professors that I have had have been extremely dedicated to their students and their success. Some have gone as far to reach out to me when they noticed that I was struggling or that I was missing a day of class. It doesn't just stop at the professors either. Many of the support staff are also very dedicated. They hold many events to support students In their registration, financial aid, enrollment, and so much more. At Pierce there isn't much campus life. Most of the students come for their classes and go home. This however does not mean that they do not try. There are several events a month hosted by the ASO and other clubs. That being said the athletics aren't very good either. Many of the teams lack the funding, participation, and dedication that you may find at other schools.
As a first-year full-time student at Los Angeles Pierce Community College, I greatly enjoy my time learning and connecting with others at school. Due to the sizes of the classes I attend, it is easy for me to communicate with the professors and connect with classmates who can support me with any issues I come across. Besides noticing the passion professors here at Pierce have for teaching, they care about student work habits, and health and can be very understanding of problems outside school that affect my academics. The availability of counselors made it simple for me to ask questions and know which courses to enroll in, what programs are available for financial aid and to transfer to a 4-year university. I feel highly connected to this school and will continue to study at Pierce College until I graduate and major in Criminal Justice.
