Jacqueline

Central Texas College is a friendly and safe campus. The last time this campus had a "creep" it was handled swiftly and students were warned. I have felt comfortable consistently and have had no reason to contact campus authorities. There was a time I even dropped my wallet and I was contacted by the police department on campus to get it back.

Tatiana

As a student at Central Texas College, I've had a great experience so far. The college offers a wide range of activities that cater to diverse interests. There are numerous student organizations and clubs you can join, such as the Net Impact, which allows you to get involved in campus decision-making and leadership opportunities. For people interested in fitness and sports, the college has excellent facilities including a gym and swimming pool. They also organize intramural sports, which are a fun way to stay active and meet new people. Central Texas College hosts events throughout the year, like cultural festivals, guest speaker sessions, and workshops that enhance both academic and personal growth. The community atmosphere and the variety of activities available make it a vibrant place to study and grow.

Nevaeh

Central Texas College is a small and close knit college that encourages students education. My professors are great with communication and get the point across clearly. The food is amazing and I look forward to it on occasion. The students on campus are nice and well rounded. Even the janitors and chefs are very nice and just a smile makes the day better.

mya

If you want to get a great start this is the college to go to. The class sizes are small and intimate. You'll get the help you need. And everything is very assessable. The staff is very helpful with financial aide. The cost to attend is not a lot at all.

Wyatt

I love it at CTC, they are engaging, friendly, and on top of their game when it comes to students. I have had a wonderful experience with the college and I would recommend it to any one of my friends and family, I have a friend who is going there now and he loves it! 11/10

Alysa

Central Texas College was one of the best routes I could have taken coming straight out of college. Since going directly into a university is usually very costly, my parents and I were actively looking for a cheaper route. Central Texas College was an amazing choice. There is a wide range of classes and tuition is not high at all. The professors are all easily accessible and the administration staff is willing to go the distance to help make sure you understand your college journey.

Isabella

Central Texas College is okay, though many professors are boring and dreadful. The campus itself is on the smaller side, but the fountains and buildings are interesting to look at. I would recommend coming here for an Associate's and it's a decent community college to start off in.

Lillian

Central Texas College is an affordable and respectable college. I am able to go at my own pace and not be judged. The staff is usually friendly and the majority of the teachers are very involved and encouraging. The campus size is just the right size and the gym and library are great amenities.

Jeunet

I think Central Texas College is a great community college for everyone. I believe all upcoming high school graduates should apply to Central Texas College. they would safe a lot of money.

Aneissia

It's a good school however they don't have the best people to help you especially for new comers. The adviors are barley any help. They always act like they don't know whag your ever talking about so what takes longer to explain anything to them which makes it annoying.

Stephanie

A great college that will give you a great education at a great price! I used to only take classes here seasonally in the summers, and would attend my local university during the fall and spring semesters. Surprisingly enough, I preferred my CTC professors over the one's at my university because they were more helpful and approachable!

Jenny

It’s an awesome place to learn . The professors are great and they make learning easy. I would recommend to anyone who chooses to further there education. They also offer an amazing nursing program that really allows students to become more interactive rather than learning from a book.

Megan

CTC has been an amazing experience since my first day walking in. It's a big school so its easy to get lost but all the staff has no problem taking you, or drawing on a map for you where you need to be. The financial aid office is very together and understanding. They seem to do more then required to help you. The VA area is also so helpful. He is very blunt and honest so you don't waste time or find yourself going in circles. The admissions office is extremely friendly and patient. This school quickly feels like home.

Damarion

Central Texas College is a good close to home community college that I plan on going to after i graduate from Copperas Cove High school. I love how the school grounds look as me and my mother have already looked, but we do not have enough money to pay for even one semester!

Christopher

Central Texas College is a great school. Weather you are just starting or returning to college. They are surrounded by a military community and provide a lot of options. You can take online, in the class, or a mixture of the two. They have out reached to Fort Hood Texas and establishes classrooms on post to make it easier for Soldier’s and there family members. Classes go all day. Start times are 6am till 11pm. So that mean they are very flexible.

    At my school there is a wide variety of students in terms of race, marital status, military, and civilians. I am a mom and having classmates that are moms too is very encouraging. It's great to know that people are on a similar journey like mine. My school is also located in the same building where my husband's grandparents went to high school. It is also in the middle of one of the worst parts of town, but it is an inspiration to the residents surrounding it. I hope the school brings some positivity to this area.
