My experience at American River College has been great! The counselors helped me get into the classes I need in order to transfer and that's needed for my major.

My courses and professors have been outstanding here at American River College. I would say that the career prospects are great because most to the students here live in real times and have done extensive work already on the job market here in Sacramento, CA. Therefore, the value of a degree from this school is very high in that most students transfer immediately after graduating over to a 4 year college. I feel the quality of the Alumni is wonderful, with all of the memorabilia you're able to purchase to represent the school as your out and about during your everyday life. as well as the synergy of the students. I work for Sacramento State University and they do a great job recruiting at the school to get students interested in attending a 4 year college upon graduating from a junior college. The career center and the rest of the services is awesome!

The convenience at my school has been wonderful. I have been there since Spring 2016. It is a great place to get your general education requirements and a good step stone to a four-year college. I think that the professors are great! I've had a great experience so far.

I liked how simple it was to enroll in the College. I have chosen all my professors with Rate my professor.com and I have been happy with every professor at American River. I have a 3.87 gpa with 58.5 units completed. I highly recommend this school.

This college is very diverse. The professors clearly care about their students in every class I've taken here. I've never had issues with other students being hateful or overly disruptive. However, I wish the student service helpers were more helpful in informing me about potential scholarships as well as what classes to take in order to graduate/transfer on time.

This is a great school if you're looking to transfer to the University of California. I enjoy all of my classes, with the professors making the classes very interesting. I have the privilage of being an athlete, running track and field. All of the coaches are experienced, and most professors are flexible with the athletic schedules. Overall, I think American River College is a fantastic college to go to for a wide variety of people.

American River College is a wonderful place to go to school. It’s a large campus with a wide variety of demographics, class types & degree programs! The one thing I would change about it, the counselor to student ratio seems to be way off. If you’re a walk-in appointment, the wait is forever. If you schedule an appointment, you have to call at 7am and hope you can get an appointment scheduled for a week out. Hiring a few more counselors might not fix the problem, but it might help alleviate some of the issue.

The college is challenging, but classes aren't too hard to pass. This was a really good place to get my GE out of the way! I have been here for two year, and have saved a ton of money.
