MJC is a very decent community college. I have always enjoyed my time here and I have met some really great people and instructors. It's never too late to go back to school and they offer quite a few programs. Go check it out!

Not the place for a full degree. Make certain the REAL college you're going to will take your credits from here or you're gonna waste time and money. Also, if you drive... be prepared to walk for a half hour from wherever you parked to your class as this place has the worst parking of any place in the Central Valley. Maybe 1 parking spot for every 20 students... Ya, it's that bad.

Financial aid office is a joke. They take their sweet time buy the time they help you you've been standing there for more than 20+ minutes. Then out of no where the ladies decide to leave for coffee and leave a student in charge what's up with that. The phones don't ring only a light blinks so they never answer a damn call. Worst offices and staff ever.

Let me say this, if you aren't willing to fill out alot of paperwork, find the student resources available to you, and aren't willing to adapt then you wont get far in college period. Before starting apply for financial aid ahead of time before your desired term (2months ahead). Make sure to apply for the BOG waiver, even if you wont qualify for financial aid, the BOG covers the class fee and you only need to pay for the student fee which is about $25 per term. Get familiar with the campus by exploring it on foot, there is maps online and available in the student services building or library. Go in to talk to a counselor to go over an educational plan so you know what classes you need to take for your degree or certificate. Go to the student store to buy the student catalog it has all the programs available with this credits and classes you need. Also it serves as a contract, meaning when you buy it and selected your desired degree or certificate then you wont need to take extra or new classes that they add to the next years catalog. This is only valid if you don't drop out for more than a year. When you start your first term I recommend College life skills 101. They will prepare you for your college experience and also have guest speakers from all mjc's departments. They will hand you resources and if you use them correctly you will go far. Tutoring will help with hard classes and its free (library). There are many classes with different teachers and students. Diversity is a huge thing here. Remember everyone is there for many reasons, but focus on what you want. No you will not get along with some students but in this world not everybody has to like you either. Group projects are hard if you get into a lazy group so pay attention to students who are there every day and who turn in every assignment. No matter what college you enter you will need to adapt to the classes and to the student population. There are teachers who care and those that don't, this isn't highschool it's college. Utilize the teachers office hours and talk to them about any concerns. Lastly parking isn't that bad if you know where to park. Arrive early, and don't park next to big trucks or vans , or also park in the back or on the sides. Make sure to close all windows, lock your car, and do not have any valuables in the open. If you have an older car or one that's used a lot for racing then you may be a target. So invest in some car protection, wheel lock etc.
