Facilities at Claremont McKenna College

B-

Gym and Internet Services Are a Joke

Honestly, why does CMC spend so much money running like eight fountains all day everyday instead of fixing the wireless or building a new fitness center? Good luck trying to get on the internet during finals week or getting into the weight room ever.

Off-Campus Housing at Claremont McKenna College

A

Available

Students can live off campus in a number of ways, though most don't opt to until their junior/senior years. There are many options available, but most people choose to stay on campus.

Diversity at Claremont McKenna College

B

Nothing to Write Home About

Meh, I guess it's pretty standard fair for a small private college. Not very much diversity, handful of ethnicities and internationals.

Nightlife at Claremont McKenna College

Hope You Like TNC

If your idea of a good time is getting s--t-faced and then going to a dorm-lounge dance party with a bunch of other drunk people, you'll do fine.

Transportation at Claremont McKenna College

A-

Available, Not Necessary

There's really not many reasons to need transportation; most of what's going on is on the 5C's campuses. If you need to go somewhere, though, rides are usually negotiable.

Local Atmosphere at Claremont McKenna College

A

Mountains, Beach, LA

It's kind of ridiculous, but you can go skiing and surfing in the same day at CMC. There's some small time mountains nearby and LA's one train ride or car ride away.

Campus Housing at Claremont McKenna College

A+

Flippin' Awesome

We have maids. They clean our room. They don't care if there's a bong on the floor. They will clean around you if you are passed out. That is all.

Computers at Claremont McKenna College

B-

Make My Internet Work, Damnit.

The computer labs are often crowded. Wireless is sporadic at best during finals. Even wired connections cut out occasionally.

Guys & Girls at Claremont McKenna College

D

Girls Are Dogs

Honestly, I don't know where these positive reviews come from. Most of the girls at CMC are not attractive. Period. This makes the ones that are attractive act terribly because the mostly male population gives them so much attention. That being said, the Scripps pool usually has a pretty good view.

Parking at Claremont McKenna College

C+

Awful Parking

There's barely any parking. Living on campus, I usually have to park a few blocks away because there's so few spots closer to the dorms. Pomona just built a new parking garage nearby, though. So, that might help in the future.
