What Students and Educators Are Saying

I use CaliforniaColleges.edu for everything college related.
It would keep me on track for what I needed to finish
for high school and what I needed for college.

CaliforniaColleges.edu empowered students to have informed conversations
with me. It also gave the family information about what they can do to support
the student. I can’t say enough about how this platform has
really supported my work as a counselor.
