  • You're going to find an older crowd at LAHC. I've noticed that most of the other students are working while they go to school. The class selections are limited, but the courses they have are fairly good. If you are just here to do your studies and then go to work, you will like this school.

  • I really like this school, I'm in the nursing program and there are a lot of students who are very serious about coming here and moving on with their career. I have seen how other community colleges are just a collection of goof off students, but it is different here. The teachers expect more from us... Don't take this school lightly its actually very hard...
