Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable community college path in the East Bay, with the small enrollment of about 4,800 students meaning you're less likely to get lost in the crowd. The honest concern is that median earnings of $38,900 a decade after enrollment are modest, so this school makes the most sense as a stepping stone toward transfer to a four-year university rather than a terminal degree.
