Tunxis is very open minded college and they allow plentiful space for you to express yourself and discover what you want to do. There isn't a rush to get your degree and they don't push you into classes that won't help towards your degree. Love this school and the inclusivity it provides.

Overall 4.2
I love Tunxis and like many others, wish I could stay here for another two years. So many professors show a deep passion for teaching and dedication to seeing their students succeed. Its a CC so there isn't many sporting events and such but it makes up for it with a very lively and caring community. Great opportunities and experience.

I agree with others when I say that I wish it were a 4 year!!! Great professors, I've never had a professor that wasn't willing to go the extra mile. They are all very knowledgeable in their fields. The Fine Arts, Photography, and Graphic Design & Math dept's are Exceptional!The Barnes-Franklin Gallery is Fantastic! Student support 100% Amazing!!<3

Faculty is useless when you need them most, The professors are unhelpful and rude on top of that, the campus seems ok but if you need help with classes or any sort of financial aid your better off doing it yourself. The tutoring here is a joke the tutors barely know any material and end up using their phones. If you need help just look it up online
