A lot of people dislike community college because they feel like its not "the real college experience", but in my opinion its been the best. I would never leave Roane state or recommend a high end college. Im getting the same degree for thousands of dollars cheaper. I'm thankful that i've chosen to attend Roane State!

I love Roane State Community College and this campus is great! The learning center with free tutoring is so helpful. Campus is always clean and I always feel very safe. Just like any other school there are good professors and bad, but so far I've had all great ones. Love Roane State and recommend it for anyone wanting to save money on college.

This was my first year at Roane State. I love the instructors and everyone is eager to help. There are a lot of programs that Roane state offers, however some programs are very competitive especially the Dental Hygiene. That program only offers 12 spots to the most promising students with a GPA over 3.65. It will be tough, but it is possible.

Tuition is EXPENSIVE if you don't have scholarships. They will add on lots of extra fees to your tuition every semester. I had to take out loans to pay for 2 semesters. They also charged a lot during the summer months. It's just to expensive here.

Internet is awful does not work most of the time.
