TCC offers many opportunities. (Resume help, job fairs, transfer help, community service hours, and cultural engagement.) The staff/professors are helpful and want you to succeed. It is affordable, and it offers many academic programs.

I'm currently in my third semester and I love it. The opportunities are endless. From finding a club, attending workshops, using the resources to complete homework, finding friends is up to you. It definitely offers the opportunity. Every one is so helpful and encouraging. TCC goes above and beyond for its students!

This place is horrible, don't go here. the classes, food, and teacher are all trash. there's only one good teacher here and that is Bottrell. the bookstore is overpriced. It's either too cold or too hot there's no in-between. the academic advisor don't do anything. everything about this place is trash if I could give it a negative rate, I would.

Professors are not helpful at all

This school is where dreams go to die. Many of the professors don’t care AT ALL about your progress. It’s your fault if you don’t understand them, as they are all the greatest professors ever. It’s been a frustrating ride. I made A’s and some B’s but it was SO MUCH MORE STRESSFUL than my classes at UTA. The workload was absurd.
