The College of Agriculture helped me significantly in learning advanced concepts in regards to Plant and Soil Science as a transfer student from a community college. The job I currently work at aligns quite well with the curriculum taught by the dedicated professors both in general education and in the college itself. The campus itself is gorgeous all year long and the surrounding downtown area provides many helpful services to make life happen. The outdoor areas too are wonderful and are well worth exploring (time permitting). The financial aid package provided by FAFSA (highly recommended, if not mandatory to apply) too was something neither my dad or I expected to make use of. Not sure why some other reviewers experienced issues with the system. I experienced no problems the whole time while enrolled as a student. Perhaps my enjoyment of the experience is skewed due to the fact that the pandemic greatly altered many aspects of the university itself when I first transferred (then gradually rolled back). If I could, I would give 4.5 stars. At the end of the day, higher education is a choice, and CSUC was a great choice indeed for me!

Forestry Camp (circa 1917) is run by UC Berkeley's Forestry Department/College of Natural Resources…read moreand is situated in Meadow Valley, CA in Plumas County. The closest "big town" is Quincy (about 15-25 minute drive away), and the closest "city" would be Reno, NV about 100 miles away (about two hours). Every summer, Forestry Camp is home to an intense 8-week summer course that sees undergraduates from various disciplines and universities taking four introductory forestry courses. They familiarize students with the local Sierra Nevada ecology, map and compass skills, and forestry equipment (e.g. diameter to breast height tape, clinometers, etc.) before tackling more advanced topics including silviculture and utilization (how to grow trees and then utilize the end products known as lumber). It is an extremely exciting session, and it is required of all Forestry students at Cal. It is a fast way of earning a Forestry minor at Cal, which was what I did. Students from other universities across the nation (not just limited to the UC system) may apply and sign up for camp. It usually accommodates between 30 to perhaps 45 campers. Students are housed in "bunkhouses" comprised of four rooms with two students to a room. If there aren't as many students for a year though, you may end up having a room all to yourself (as was my case). Other students who want a more up-and-close experience with nature can opt for "shantyhouse cabins" that are standalone cabins on the outskirts of camp. They have mesh screens and aren't as insulated as a result. They're still two to a cabin, and are hotly sought after at the start of camp. There is plenty more information that I want to write about Forestry Camp, but there is a text limit on Yelp so I've striven to provide an introductory text to what it is. But I do want to say that coming to camp during my undergraduate career was one of the best decisions I made in college. Of all my years of education, I have never felt like I have learned anything more useful than what I did here. I was always appreciative everyday going to class that I was learning among all these towering Douglas Firs and sugar pine trees. I felt that I lived more in the 56 or so days I spent here in Meadow Valley than in my whole life. Of course, your mileage may vary. All in all, Forestry Camp is home to an amazing collegiate experience. You spend almost your entire day with your fellow campers, seven days a week. You learn so much about a critical natural resource. And then on the weekends you go to Thunder Cafe and recreate in the woods and creeks. If you want to learn more, hit me up.

Financial aid on the other hand could careless. I don't qualify for financial aid so I need to pull out loans. Unfortunately you can't get a loan without filing for FAFSA, so I filed before the deadline which is at the end of February I believe, and my file is still processing. This school does not release loan applications until the file is completely processed. They do not have them online, they do paper. I have been trying to get a hold of them because school starts August 24th and it takes 6 to 8 weeks for loans to pay out. Last time I checked textbooks are expensive and I need those funds to pay for my books. But the school expects me to put them all on a credit card. So put myself in debt while I am waiting to put myself in debt. That makes sense.

(Doctor of Jurisprudence) degree, which can be earned in four years through night classes, either in person or synchronous online, and a Master of Legal Studies (M.L.S.) degree, which can be completed part-time in two years. The J.D. program meets the educational requirements for admission to the State Bar of California. However, individuals enrolled in the MLS program are not eligible to pursue the J.D. degree, and completing an MLS does not qualify a student to take the California Bar Exam or practice law in California or other jurisdictions. Prospective law students should verify the requirements of the jurisdiction where they intend to practice.
