Saul - 07/05/2024

I love Allan Hancock College, particularly as a low-income first-generation Hispanic college student. This school has excellent counselors who are ecstatic to help us reach the stage for many of us, university, furthermore as a STEM student there are many workshops through the MESA/STEM center to help us excel. We even have an industry advisor by the name of Marcus Carson who is always ready to assist us and help us STEM students find internships. Additionally, while I cannot speak for all sectors on campus I have stopped by the Fine Arts Complex and it is stunning which tells me the school cares about their arts-loving creative students. This is a wonderful thing in general to provide for low-income Hispanic students as many of us have never been exposed to such things. Overall, I have loved my experience so far at the college, and doors that were not open to me at my high school, Arroyo Grande High School, are now open to me thanks to this wonderful institution.

My opinion on Allan Hancock College is that so far it has been an awesome experience. This is my first year and its only been 1 semester but my teachers were lovely and even though everything is through zoom I've met a few friends and got to know my teachers a little bit more through breakout rooms and them just always being there making sure we are doing okay. I had an awesome first semester can't wait to see what this next year is like.

it is overall a good school to start your degree. given the nature of the school most students will need to go to a university after to further their education. there are many programs though they offer that need no further education if the student so chooses to. these include nursing and culinary arts.

I love AHC it's faculty are very caring about there students. Most of the teachers are really nice and great educators, parking kind of sucks not enough of it. But great place to further your education.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    Buckle down and make it happen! These are the words that I would try with every fiber of my being to get my(high school senior)self to absorb. Just like with most things that we all dread in life, it is not the actual action that is hard to do but it is the idea of the action that impeads us from progressing. Considering the word "education," most people would say that you can't get one without thinking. But is the reality of this process better off started by not thinking and simply doing? I believe whole heartedly that if I had stopped thinking about it and just did it, I would currently hold a colleg degree. Knowing what I know now about college life, the advice that I would give myself is, "Buckle down and make it happen!"
