This place is awesome.

I really enjoy this campus. It is small so it did not feel overwhelming or confusing on my first day. Parking was easily accessible to students, which can be an issue for many college campuses.

I have been to 2 other JR Colleges and one university and this is by far my favorite school. The teachers are way better here, the staff is amazing, the testing center is very organized and nice. I am so glad I chose to go here and live at the University Courtyards.

I am an online student have really enjoyed the course work at Temple college. Instructors set clear expectations and will work with you when you communicate any struggles you may have. Getting with my department chair for course planning has been a huge asset to planning and successful transfer of credits.

This is a very wonderful community college. Definitely check each individual professor on RMP before signing up for classes. I have loved all my teachers. The core/required course teachers are usually a little more strict. Community college is by far superior to university and the professors care a lot. Temple has some sketchy areas but not unusual

Everyone is super kind and helpful. The teachers answer any questions. The counselors are really awesome also.

The worst online system I have ever seen. I literally am always unable to register for my summer classes. It's pathetic and pisses me off that I have to give them my money. Dealing with it is the worst thing I've done in my college career

My English teacher didn't even show up on the first day of work. The 2nd day was relocated, the teacher didn't even follow the syllabus, her English punctuation is nonsense. They write the name, date and class in the top right of pages and staple the right side of papers.

Do your research about the quality of the instructors! There is much to be desired.

Not a lot of room for opportunities .... The professors care but Ruth Bridges is horrible. She is in charge of all the clubs on campus and stifles every opportunity that you try to bring to campus.

I attend the Taylor Campus and the Hutto campus as they are local to me. The Hutto campus is nice but it is obvious that Temple College just uses the building. Taylor is a joke. It is almost all high schoolers, and is a ISD building. It is not a college but a building. Think gun free zone with no security filled with emotional high schoolers.

Any community college you go to will likely suck, this place just has so many crimes around it, especially by the apartments across the street

I never met a nice person going to school here. The administration is so unhelpful and will talk to you like you're an idiot. The only nice ones are the advisors that sign you up for classes. Only had a handful of good teachers and BEWARE OF THE "campus police" they will give you a ticket for anything. I had an awful experience

Temple College mainly caters to the surrounding high schools. It is almost impossible to get into a class after the first day of registration. You must be willing to take an online class or drive to one of their satellite campuses for the class. This is my last semester here thankfully. I'd rather drive to Waco and go to MCC.
