Great school. Need a meal plan. Active students should at least be able to eat one meal. We have to pay too much for the food. The food is good but so expensive and not enough for the cost.

I used the Post 9/11 GI Bill as an out-of-state online student. I was in the yellow ribbon program. It is a great deal for an out-of-state Veteran. I now have a degree and 4 certificates from FTCC in short order. Thank You FTCC.

Just graduated this 5/18/2018 with a Certificate. FTCC also had 411 other Veteran graduates in the same class. Looking forward to next graduation in 2019 at FTCC with a degree.

Staff not very helpful. Do not expect a call back after leaving a message. Unfortunately only community college around for miles. If I had a choice I would of went elsewhere. Some teachersinstructors shouldn't be teaching. Some what a ghetto college in my opinion. Money hungry!!!

Ghetto. awful. everyone on campus us incredibly weird and creepy. if you have to attend this school just keep to yourself and stay focused, the idea of getting stuck here is enough to keep you driven. good luck to anyone having to attend.

This college is okay. It definitely has some professors who care a lot and some who set their courses up for students to fail. They really don't assist in helping students transfer and you get stuck in gridlock here. It's OK for what it is.

This school is NOT military family friendly. Military dependents are eligible for in state tuition by filling out a form that you have to seek out yourself & it's the student's responsibility to know when it expires and seek it out a again. The form is only valid for one school year & they won't hesitate to charge you 3x the amount you should be.

Counselors are non existant and are unavailable via telephone as well. They do not provide you with adequate information. Faculty and staff service at Fayetteville Technical Community College is below average.

My education was a lot of work, but I still need more education due to not enough taught to me after graduation.
