申请点评

• Campus Resources: The resources on campus are incredible! They offer a lot of different athletic and educational centers. Athletic centers include a natatorium with an olympic sized pool, a full gym, and many trails. As for educational centers they have an extensive library and many computer labs located around campus.
• Campus Resources: I would say everything was good. I never really do campus activities unless it was with our club. When we did do activities all the students got involved and treated everyone goood.
• Academic Experience: It was great there was a lot of hands on activities and internship opportunities. They had different clubs that got all the students involved.
• Academic Experience: The professors i had where very helpful whenever i needed info or help i would go to them.
• Academic Experience: I have yet to meet someone with the same degree plan as mine, Professional Pilot, at Palo Alto. Most of my classes, Aviation classes, are at Stinson Municipal Airport. The classes I take a Palo Alto are my core classes and electives. Stinson is apart of Palo Alto just at separate sites, both offer internships/jobs and future opportunities for students.
• Academic Experience: The academics offered at Palo Alto is not at all limited. Any information you are looking for, Palo Alto has it. Having trouble in a certain subject, there are tutors, professors, and even students willing to help. If you need help registering for classes the faculty is more than happy to help you get the schedule you are looking to have.
• Student Body: Palo alto is full of diversity from career choices to ethnicity, what every one has in common is how friendly they all are. Not only are the students friendly but the faculty as well, they truly take an interest in getting to know and talking to students.*(4)
