I was a engineering student here for a couple of years then I transferred. If you are considering this school please conduct a detailed investigation of the campus! There are a lot of things that are not clear during the orientation. Although the campus is beautiful it's located 2 minutes away from the hood/ GHETTO! The new gym is located where the old trap house motel was located. This is a male dominated school, meaning the female population with the faculty, staff, and students is roughly about 20%. There is NO Diversity on this campus what so ever and the food is horrible!

My son is a freshman in the Marine Transportation program and he is not only thriving but very content at Cal Maritime. He speaks highly of his professors, has made great friends and it has been the perfect fit him. He has never mentioned any bullying and says the food is fine. His goal is to succeed and do well and I believe Cal Maritime will give him the support to do so. It is a great campus!

A real toxic environment. Group of bullies called the core. Only environment where students are encouraged to bully peers. Staff knows student population exceeds capacity in the number of slots allocated for class enrollment. Plan to be here for 5 years. For the most part teachers are really good. Bad blood between Maritime and CSU in administering the school. Tuition on web site doesn't include cost for cruise, not required for Global Study students.

As a cadet currently attending, there is more to what Alexander D is complaining about. True that some of the food could be better, but the people there work hard and the food is fine, there's also a sandwich shop where you can get hand made sandwiches if you don't want to eat there during lunch. There life there is very militaristic with connections to navy and coast guard, so yes we have an image to uphold and rules to follow. Yeah the commandants will write you up if you are not follow proper conduct, but that's only if you get yourself into trouble. If you keep your nose clean and actually follow the rules, you'll be fine, granted that there is a lot of them. Internet is fine, there has to be routine maintenance because there is a lot of people using the internet for schoolwork. Registration is what the student makes of it, if you apply early then you won't have issues with the classes and won't have to wait until the beginning of the semester to register. However it's the students responsibility to apply for the required courses at the appropriate time. Also, we are literally right next to San Francisco, we don't have just the ghetto to go wandering off into. If you have your own car then it's easy getting to places like target, gamestop or the movies without spending so much time in one part of town. Overall, it's a school for people who actually want to work, not for people that are just used to doing whatever they want and get away with it. As a student and a cadet, I take pride in the fact that I'm getting all of this practical training towards my future career, anyone else who has a problem with Cal Maritime doesn't have to go. Anyone who's just heard bad rumors, actually come here and make a decision yourself. I made my choice of colleges and I'm doing what I can to make the best of it.

Poor Food Quality due to cheap ingredients. Bad location with nowhere to go. Little campus life Arbitrary restrictions on classes making it harder to get your class load than advertised. Mixed quality. Some interesting features but a poor experience overall with a clear embittering effect on students.
