Amazing school
Overall 4.9
TCU is top tier in every sense. Staff is incredibly accommodating and our dorms/academic buildings are some of the best in the nation. You can find whatever you need here as long as you seek it out. It may seem like all we care about is greek life and money but there is A LOT more offered that many students pass up. Feels incredibly safe on campus!

heat aching to see the tuition being raised to the point where it's more than Harvard's and I'm not even guaranteed a low entry job. This school is not worth the price of Harvard and be

told the school many times how awful the cleaniness is at this school. the workers would drop the food at kfc yet still serve it. very cliquey, need to join a sorority or frat to feel like you belong and no school should make you feel like that.

Not worth your money.
Overall 1.6
For the amount of money you pay you do not receive the expected quality of service. The teachers are disorganized, the violate FERPA, and they waste your time. You might as well throw your money in the garbage. I enjoyed my time at community college and thought that education was 1000x better than that at TCU. I want my time and money back.
