Review of Elizabethtown Community and Technical College

from bardstown, KY

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

It is a very good school, I am getting ready to start my second semester. I have learned quiet a bit of information, but it has not been easy. You actually have to attend class (shocker I know) and do your homework. All of the teachers are willing to help you if there is something you don't understand. If you attend class, do your homework and ask questions when you are unsure of things then you should do very well at ECTC!

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

For it to be a Community College it is a very plesant atmosphere. Everyone is very friendly, the Factually and Staff are always willing to help you in anyway possible, weather if be from getting the best teacher for your needs or to helping you find a class on campus! The first days of school the staff can be spotted all over the campus to help you in finding your classes, parking spots or to answer any questions you might have. It is a really nice benefit for the first year students who might be a little apprehensive. The school also has different seminars throughout the year (that are free!), I attended two in particular because they caught my attention. One was on Mental Health Awareness, this one in general provided us with information on how to reduce stress and to manger anger issues. It featured different speakers throughout the area that shared personal stories and tips on how to manage your stress. The other seminar was on Child Abuse. This one was put on by local ECTC students, it provided us with lots of signs to look for in Child Abuse, how to handle a Child Abuse Case, and who to report to if you suspect a Child Abuse case! ECTC also had a Spring Fling during the Spring Semester where the different clubs on campus set up booths and games, free food, live music and games. It was really fun, and allowed you to talk and get to know some of your fellow classmates! Plus is made you feel like you were at a Big College Campus!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

ECTC is very affordable, but so are most Community Colleges. I am attending to get my basics out of the way and to completely make up my mind on what I want to major in! The staff in the Financial Aid Office are extremely nice and willing to help you in anyway possible!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

ECTC is a wonderful school for students who are trying to decide what they want to major in, just wanting to pick up a few college classes or students who don't want to move far away from home. It is part of the KCTCS college system so there are many campuses all over the state of Kentucky. They offer many online classes which are convenient for those who work full time, and want to attend college at the same time. ECTC also features a Western Kentucky University Regional Camps and provides students with a WKU degree while attending class through ECTC! ECTC also has classes throughout the Central Kentucky area so students can take classes in their hometown if classes are available! There is truly something for everyone at ECTC!
