REVIEWS
Read What Students Are Sayingthe teachers are no nonsense and want to teach all that they know but at a reasonable price.
Michelle from Pottsboro, TX
A fun relaxed environment for learning. Most of the teachers really know the subject they are teaching and are happy to help. Out of 10 I would give GCC an 8.
Brianna from Denison, TX
It is a great starting school. They are updating most of the buildings to give it a newer feeling and make it more student friendly. The professors are great and willing to help also.
Stephanie from Whitesboro, TX
The teachers here are really dedicated to helping the students learn. They are almost always available by phone and always are by email. The added addition of Blackboard makes communicating with your teachers and fellow classmates much more simple.
Beth from Sherman, TX
$45 an hour. Scholarship opportunities. Small Community school.
