• With over 20,000 students, De Anza offers a "university feel" without your student getting lost - we offer services and faculty dedicated to student success
• Our faculty is excellent and our classes are small (average 35 student per class), providing a high quality and personal educational experience
• Our fees are very low - just $17/unit - we also offer Financial Aid and scholarships
