Ayomide - 01/29/2025

NCTC (North Central Texas College) is a really solid choice for affordable education, offering strong transfer programs to universities like UNT. It’s good for students looking for smaller class sizes, flexible schedules, and workforce training, but it lacks the campus life of larger school. I would recommend people to come to this school if you plan on saving a bit of money, aren't fully sure with what you want to do in life or if you plan on transferring to a big college.

parham - 08/20/2024

North Central Texas College has campuses in different cities including Denton, Flower Mound, Corinth, and Gainesville. The staff is really friendly and always ready to help students with various problems or questions. NCTC instructors are caring and educated and as long as students follow their instructions, they will succeed. NCTC is a great place to meet new people with different interests and a good choice for high school graduates who are planning to transfer to UNT or MSU due to their close partnership with NCTC.

Joseph - 05/06/2024

It is an okay school with great professors and classes. Administration and enrollment and registration can be very difficult and confusing. The multiple campuses makes it really easy to commute from anywhere in the Denton County area. The engineering technology major related professors are particularly amazing.

Megan - 03/27/2024

The community college was varied and easy to access, however I don't believe this college adjusted to the online aspect of the pandemic. There were instances where I never saw nor heard from my professor the entirety of the semester, and my grades suffered in response.

Take chances and make friends and study motivated buddies that will push and be the accountability in the transition.
