“In my time at Cerritos College, I’ve learned I can’t do it alone. There have been
countless individuals who have played a role in guiding me, and I know I wouldn’t
be here without them.”
“When I first started at Cerritos College, I couldn’t imagine myself thriving as much
as I am right now. I’m grateful for the support of my professors, and the opportunities
for success that they’ve provided to me.”
“I joined the Cerritos Complete Promise Program that offered me two years free of
college tuition. Thanks to the program, I was able to get my three degrees and one
certificate in just two years…Cerritos College has always welcomed me.”
“Whatever your interests are, you can find a group of friends and mentors at Cerritos.
As a student, it means a lot to me that my professors are personally invested in my
success. Here at Cerritos College, any dream is possible.”
“I’m a first-generation student, and I couldn’t have done it without my support system
here at Cerritos. Special shout-out to my counselor who’s been like my mom.”
“Not only are classes affordable at Cerritos, but they also offer a number of scholarships
and job opportunities. The community of support around me has been super impactful
and made Cerritos College so memorable.”
“As an international student…,Cerritos College has done more than given me knowledge
about my major; they have given me a community, leadership skills, volunteer and professional
experience.”
“I knew I had to go to Cerritos College because of their amazing atmosphere, caring
professors, and many options for online and flexible courses. As a first-generation
college student…I found tons of support from my counselors, professors, and peers
on which classes I should take and how I could best achieve my goals.”
“I finally found a program where I can express all my love…for all things skincare
and beauty through [the college’s] esthetician program. I found my passion, and Cerritos
College had the best opportunity that made me more confident.”
“In high school, I learned I could earn college credit at Cerritos College through
the Dual Enrollment program. I’m happy to say that when I graduated, I finished two
semesters of college classes which gave me the opportunity to transfer in less time.”
