The biotech program not only had tons of hands on projects, lab work and an opportunity for an internship; the teacher was very knowledgeable and start a template for a national biotech course. Great experience, real world job skills. I am so thankful I took the automotive one! Now when I go to get my car looked, at I feel confident at calling bullshit when they tell me my engine needs to be replaced or something is leaking. Not only that, the skills have saved me money! Now I can do the car stuff myself. Highly recommended. Even better, these courses cost only $80 and are free if you are in high school!! What a great deal considering how much a college degree or even an AA can cost. I really want to go back and take more classes!!!

Went here to get some further education way back 2010…read more I took the Medical Administrative Assistant and Health Care Core classes w/ Ms. Newland and Ms. Ramirez, respectively. Enrollment fee back then was around $80 per class. We would usually read the book ourselves, and then watch some videos about Medical terminology. Although the classes at times can be a bit boring (you spend 3 hours there sitting) ,my instructors were very helpful and makes sure you are on top of what needs to be done. Another good thing is that we were exposed to the work environment because of the internship that was offered. I gained a lot of skills from that. Regarding the facility, the computers are fairly new, the classrooms are nice and clean, and so are the restrooms. For a government facility of this type, it definitely deserves 4 stars.

Liberal, interesting professors, but my classmates were the type that could afford private education, worked in private education, or were I-just-appreciate-full-scholarship types. I was the liberal in between, blabbing and reliving my liberal, head-in-clouds university experience. This was better than state schools so cash strapped that classes are cancelled. Overpriced, maybe online is a better route. Plus I dislike USF's cloistered academic culture, disseminated through copious emails from the provost, the chancellor, the cardinal, who knows.

Have been going to the university for 2 years. Have had mostly good experiences…read more Biggest issues I have with current campus are 1. No Physical Library on campus. 2. Rooms 2113A and 2113B are set up in a way that if you have an afternoon/evening class the sun flares on the screen where professor may be trying to show slides and if you have laptop for class the sun glares off even if the "shades" are down. And then professor is stuck staring into the sun for several hours until the sun finally sets. Have a few class mates that can't come to class because it causes their migraines to flare. Was told there is nothing that they can do to fix this issue so if you have migraines then I'm sorry if you get these two class rooms in the afternoon/evening. As for the professors I have had good experiences with my in class professors and most of my online professors. Have only had a few sour apples that just show up to get paid or push the homework. But overall I have had a good experience so far.

PacBay has provided an environment of learning and growth academically, athletically and socially…read morefor our son. He has flourished under the encouragement and mentorship of exceptional teachers and supportive coaches. As a family from San Francisco, we sought a school that was nurturing and stimulating which definitely helped build our son's confidence. There are some amazing stand out teachers from Philosophy to History and Engineering - warm and caring, they are really interested in student success and challenging them to do more. My son is not easily impressed by people, and we are grateful that he was inspired by some brilliant college level instructors. Of course there were some teachers that were not a good fit, however we believe this to be true of any school, large or small, public or private. It is true that with a small school there are resource challenges. The positives outweighed the negatives for our family. Even though there were not as many options for sports teams, PacBay did an excellent job of providing a positive team environment in which everyone was accepted to play if they had an interest, and surprisingly they performed very well in the PSAL league for soccer, basketball, volleyball, track and cross country. Our son made tremendous improvement in his preferred sports of track and cross country; and he had the opportunity to play soccer, a team sport he otherwise would have never experienced. This definitely helped him create closer connections with his fellow students of all grade levels and not just his own class. The large and beautiful campus further facilitated a healthy learning environment, providing many opportunities for students to feel safe and free to be outside, visit the goats and chickens and play with beloved pets (dogs) that some teachers were able to bring on campus. The nearby corner store and beach was also a popular spot for students to unwind after a long day. A special shoutout to PacBay's college counselor, Ms. Ho. For a small school with limited resources, this was a top-notch service that we believe is very important for a high school to provide. PacBay students' rate of college acceptance to top tier schools is very competitive and impressive. All in all, our son had an amazing experience at PacBay and we can say he truly flourished and thrived. He has excellent study skills and habits and learned accountability through leadership opportunities. We feel very satisfied in his preparedness for college as he has become a well disciplined and independent individual, learning to advocate for himself and take charge of his academic and athletic growth. PacBay was an excellent place for him as a nonconventional person, thinking outside the box and leveraging his unique ideas and desire to build and tinker. We feel blessed that teachers and peers recognized and celebrated his enthusiasm for learning and he has made many good friends.

This review is based strictly on my opinion as a visitor…read more I work in the next building and my friend goes here which prompted me to visit. I thought it was an interesting experience since this was the first university I've been to in San Francisco. The building was well-maintained and it wasn't crowded at all.

DO NOT EVER CONSIDER!…read more EVEN if you are just looking to get their shady 90 credit Bachelors degree because you will get a raise at work it is STILL not worth it. The advisors are so burn out and bitter watching this school fail and they will take it out on you. I have since learned how poor of a reputation they have and regret so much trying to add this to my list of no name schools. No name is better than a bad name! Go ahead, go back to google and see about that time they, due to severe financial deficits and low bar pass rates, ended their JD program! Also they had to sue to even try to get the school to help them! They all lost so much time and credits as the promised transition didn't exist. Every time you go to another school you have one more you have to enter to future programs. If you ever are even considering additional education AVOID! So how was my experience? NOT GOOD! Every meeting I had with mine resulted in them complaining AT me and was disjointed and hostile. When I reported it to the department they didn't even care. They are hemorrhaging money despite stealing every dime they can get from their students with no degrees at the end. The law students didn't pass the bar and the psychology students struggled to get serious practicums and then couldn't pass the their exams. They don't run most of the classes enough to ever get out but they will keep taking money even if you will never finish. They don't care they just wait list you to death and say it's not their fault or problem but why are they taking on so many students who complain that they can't take classes? This what not my first school, I held 5 other degrees from 3 different schools when I started at this school. They were in my neighborhood so I thought it would be fun to get one more. I got yelled at every time I spoke to my advisor. It's normal there and the leadership doesn't care. They are also unresponsive so if you have any issues they won't be resolved. I wish for you all the best in your learning but AVOID! Seriously please google the news around them. It's would have never applied if I had done a little more research. After my advisor kept being so hostile to me I googled and learned. Don't do what I did, google first! There are so many schools for adults online and in person that are supportive and still struggle. This one struggles because they are not well run, no need to become another victim. But at least you are here reading. I commend your for doing more research than I did.

I was supposed to attend Jefferson High School in Daly City. I had a rough-ish time in middle school, so I wanted a fresh start. I found it at Oceana High School. Though, there were a few of us, less than ten students (Thomas R. Pollicita grads, formerly Colma Middle School) who ended up graduating together (that means, twice). I made friends of all colors, races, creeds, and religious faiths. Of course, I didn't get along with everyone, but for the most part, I had mostly friends, not enemies. There were different personalities here and I was able to navigate and learn from it. I enjoyed every year, but freshman year, was the most awkward. I had a lot of great teachers, others, not so great, but for the most part, I did learn a lot. The greats were: Mrs. Williams, Mr. Tanisawa (math), Mrs. Heeb (art), Mr. Argeris, Mr. Christensen, just to name a few. I had the most enriching experience at this school (I probably had the most growth as a person, an individual, rather, at this time). I attended all the assemblies, some football games, some dances, and some field trips over the years. I made "Honor Roll" most semesters. I joined the Track team, the Cross-Country team, and the Swim Team (and I didn't even know how to swim). I was also a part of a couple of clubs. I also even co-founded a group in Senior Year, SHOP (students helping our planet). And detention, yes, I had a few of those. I turned 18 in December of my Senior Year and was able to sign myself out. So, sometimes, I did (but this was when I had all my work done). And there was also Prank War, but it was just flyers, really. It was foggy often, the property was spread out, and it was small, compared to other schools in the district. There were two parking lots, one on each side. The courtyard was small. The cafeteria was bustling. And for a few years our school was number one in Wrestling. I think that Coach Gray was responsible for that.
