Houston Community College Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Houston Community College? Why?

Victoria

The worst thing about a community college is that it requires you to take certain classes that don't even count as a transfer credit when transferring to a university. It's a bad thing because it causes the student to waste money on a class that isn't even necessary, especially if that money could go for something more beneficial to the student like books.

i have been joined in my school for there semesters. Certaintly, all of things about my school are better than all of schools in Vietname where i were born and grown up. Utilities and professors' standard are really good. On the other hand, comparing with the others in the United States, my school are lack of entertainment utilities for student's life as gym, stadium, or dorm. i think school should organize some more events for interculteral students in the school.

With so many students in such a small campus, there is just not enough parking space. I find myself going to school a few hours early just so I can get a parking space in the last row.

The worst thing about my school in my honest opinion is the claustrophobic feeling I get. I'm not being negative nor zealous, however going to a small community college with small classes often make me feel claustrophobic. I rather attend classes with a larger population, than a smaller classroom with 30 students or less. I also don't like the fact that the lack of extra organizations, extra curriculum activities, and clubs. I'm a social person, though being social in a almost none-existing club in my college is impossible.

I can't honestly say there are any "bad" things about my school. The teachers are doing an excellent job at teaching the credentials we need to know.

The worst thing about my school is that they give out the refunds later than most schools. The only reason this was a bad thing for me was because i needed the money to help me get a car. So, i had to wait until the money was releassed.

The relaxed environment may lead you to believe that it may be okay to slack of at times, but you should not fall into the temptation.

After attending Houston Community College, I realized that the worse thing there was financial aid. In high school one is given constant help from counselors, teachers, and staff, but once one leaves the comfort zone of high school and into college, one is on there own. I filled out my FAFSA, also known as the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, and received the whole amount of aid from the government. I did not receive my financial aid until a week before school let out. My recommendation is to fight for what is rightfully yours.

I attended a private boarding school so I would have to say waking up at 5 AM to attend morning devotion.
