The campus is always changing and there are so many new buildings, and improvements. This is a small city of beauty as a campus. I actually love it way more than UCLA or UCSB. The way that students live here is a luxury and the planning and development teams are stellar. The campus is an experience and very environmentally friendly and responsible. If you are fortunate to attend college here, it is wonderful. The Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy are very popular and high ranked. I enjoy my time on campus and I recommend it .

The locations is right near the beach so we can take the dogs for a walk while he learns to code and socialize with likeminded kids his age. It was also very tidy and clean feeling, which is a nice environment for learning. I would recommend this coding school to others.

HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF STUDENT DEBT…read more Welcome to Graduation season. The time of year when we dress our foremost scholars in medieval religious cloaks and then act surprised when they can't form a straight line. Who thought it was a good idea to put these adults in robes and funny hats?! You know, those square mortarboard hats. At some point back in time did somebody see some bricklayers and say, "That. That's the look we want for our brightest minds?" So, on this day, we honor these devout construction workers. Next is the guest speaker, for the big inspo talk. Given by a guy who went here 30 years ago when it cost fifteen dollars. A rando cereal billionaire named Captain Crunch who'll tell you to "follow your dreams." Meanwhile you're thinking, my dream is to get any job to avoid moving back with (no-longer-closeted) Mom. And the tassel. You're in this sacred ceremony, and the big moment is... some fuzzy string switches sides? The Chancellor of Hogwarts will go, "By the power vested in me, you may now... transform." No one knows why we do this. Four+ years of caffeine-fueled memorizing, tens of thousands of dollars, and it's... flip that string over, you're a whole new person now. The whole time you've got "Pomp and Circumstance" playing on repeat. Its like the music you'd hear as a king gets crowned, not as Seymour from Slusher Hall waddles across the stage in a wrinkled gown. At the end you get to throw the hat. The first time this happened was at the Naval Academy. They got new officer hats, so no longer needed the old ones. It makes sense... new jobs, new hats. For the rest of us, keep these for pics with Grandpa Jack and Gramargarita. Anyway, that's graduation in a nutshell. Just a bunch of weird traditions that we've all agreed is how it should be done. And it's kinda beautiful. Pro tip: Congrats to the USD class of 2026. Ceremonies take place May 21-24 2026. The primary venues are: Jenny Craig Pavilion, Founders Chapel and Shiley Theatre. All graduations follow the above format.

The Catholic university is a blend of historic architecture, lush natural surroundings, and a vibrant student atmosphere! It's definitely a peaceful space, with botanical gardens, tree-lined walkways, and beautiful fountains that encourage focus, tranquility and serenity for every student on campus! The campus almost feels like a postcard, featuring 16th-century Plateresque architecture, a style of the Spanish Renaissance- paying homage to both San Diego's Catholic heritage and the Universidad de Alcalá in Spain. Definitely recommend checking this campus out, it's a great place to walk through and enjoy those stunning panoramic views of Mission Bay!

I had a horrible experience trying to take Microbiology. The lab aspect was a complete nightmare…read morebecause the lab company UCSD works with is incredibly disorganized. I'm currently taking a Chemistry course. This week, I spent one hour learning chemistry on Canvas, and five hours trying to get my textbook and homework platform to link with Canvas. Canvas provides no instructions whatsoever. The professor just tells you to contact the textbook company. The textbook website says to click on a link on Canvas. Unfortunately that link in Canvas takes you to a blank page. Other students are having problems too. This is my second horrible experience with UCSD Extension. If you want to learn science, find another place to take your classes. If you want to spend hours trying to resolve technical problems, this is a great option. I wish UCSD Ext would not outsource.

I took Microbiology with Lab 169818 at UC San Diego and it was the most disorganized experience…read more Lessons are everywhere. Not organized at all. Mixed up and repeated information the learning sections. The videos provided for learning are not the teacher speaking and are random people/"professors" but some of them can't even pronounce the words and sound like they have NO CLUE what they are talking about. It's quite confusing what you really need to know for the class because the modules say one thing but the PowerPoints, reading, and videos talk about that plus way more. It's very much so an overload. It's like no one took the time to perfect or even proofread this class setup and modules. Science lab kit is way overpriced for what you get. Like really for $450 you couldn't add 2 paper clips, alcohol, extra masks, more candles, extra Petri dishes with agar, and extra microbes (for any errors). We are not experts here and being left alone to do the labs especially at the beginning is trial and error. For me I accidentally punctured the agar with the loop and ruined my whole sample and it was just shit out of luck unless I wanted to buy more myself (only about $10 but I just paid $450 for this kit so why should I have to do that?). Not everything in the kit was used. It was a huge waste of money. The class is kind of "at your own pace" so you could totally finish early and wing it! I guess if you have the money and don't really want to learn but just need the class- go for it. I would never recommend this class or school to anyone. It was a terrible experience and this is coming from someone who already has a degree and has taken MANY online classes.

It's clear my age is a factor. I've done everything the school asked of me. Do not apply to the school if you are in your late 50s. I was told it would take me 7yrs. It's fine God has another plan, and that's for me to return back to school to finish and obtain my doctorate. Good luck... Shortage of nurses doesn't mean a thing...

The entire campus is flat, super easy to walk, and feels very safe. The buildings look new and are incredibly clean -- I mean really clean! Their athletic programs are top-notch. We spent the whole afternoon with the team and coaches, and everyone was welcoming and professional. And get this -- tuition for the first year is only $9,300, and the following year is ZERO dollars! Say whaaaat?! Huge thank you to the coach for taking the time to meet with us and even treating us to lunch. Overall, Mesa College really stood out -- great people, great campus, and great opportunities!

This is a sorry excuse of a school. Please be aware that this school has a very very shady system…read morefor their radiologic technologist program. Most of the pre reqs for this program expire in 5 years. This school only accepts applications every 2 years (most schools and allied health programs do every year). Meaning you only get two chances to apply within the 5 year period. At the 5 year mark you have to retake math, physics, anatomy + physiology, Medical terminology. Also do not waste your time with their BIO 160 class. Please take anatomy and physiology SEPARATELY. Other programs require them separately but the counselors will not tell you this. Students are not set up for success here, they just want your money and financial aid. In addition, this school charges students for parking and has many times blocked off more than 40 student parking spots, renting them out to non student functions. If you read the fine print it says yes you must pay parking and no you are not guaranteed a spot. This school has demonstrated time and time again that they have no interest in making things work functionally for their students.

I graduated from this college at UCSD!…read more DAMN those MMW Classes but I learned a lot! Hi Professor Chang! ACADEMICS***** ERC MMW Classes are super easy! No need to study or buy textbook! just show up to midterm and final and you should be okay! (I do not recommend this for your other classes...learned this the hard way...) ERC housing is super close to RIMAC gym and arena if you like working out. The housing is also super close to the Village transfer housing which was super nice and new when I lived there! There is a sushi Bistro restaurant that you can use your dining dollars at nearby, a market which used to have the best Iced White Mochas on campus (at least when I went here)! Cafe V also had pretty good chipotle mayo for their burgers. Not really many places to study at ERC :( I always ended up "studying" all the way in Warren college in the computer labs (SHOUTOUT TO EBU3B you da real MVP)! Also cuter dudes studying in the Engineering section of Geisel. Parking is pretty much non-existent unless you're lucky enough to snag a spot at Pangea Parking Garage or Hopkins! Good luck! The counselors here are AWESOME! Definitely willing to work with their students. They understand that everyone learns differently and willing to set goals and plans! YAYYY! If you're applying to UCSD and don't know which college to choose ERC is not bad! I would also consider Marshall, Muir or Warren! Def not 6th college lol. Good luck kids!

After spending six years at La Jolla Village Montessori with both of our children completing the…read morefull three year Montessori program, I can honestly say we couldn't have asked for a better preschool experience. Miss Joanne and the entire staff are exceptional. They genuinely care about every child and have built a warm, nurturing environment where kids are encouraged to become confident, independent, and curious learners. The staff is kind, patient, and dedicated, and it was clear every day that our children were truly known and cared for. One of the things we appreciated most was the small school atmosphere. It feels like a community, and that personal attention made a huge difference for our family. Most importantly, both of our kids entered kindergarten well prepared; not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. Looking back, we're convinced that their time at La Jolla Village Montessori gave them an incredible foundation for success. We're grateful for the six years we spent there and highly recommend La Jolla Village Montessori to any family looking for an outstanding Montessori preschool.

She left there with tons of friends, confidence and knowledge and now far surpasses her entire TK class. The teachers are so loving and sweet and Ms Joanne is absolutely wonderful. I was very impressed with how clean and organized everything is- they teach the kids manners and respect. They have several enrichment activities throughout the year where guest speakers come in and the kids are able to interact with animals. Parents are also very involved and it's an amazing community of children and families.
