Review of Hillsborough Community College

from Plant City, FL

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Learning will definitely be easier when there are fewer students in a class. The teachers are able to take the time to focus on one person if need be.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I definitely enjoy being here, as there are lounges for some of the students to relax in after class. Campus is not that big, and not that small, so you can find your away around the campus pretty easily.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

This college is pretty cheap, and you get a good education. It's a little over $100 per credit hour for in-state tuition, about $380 for out-of-state. It's a pretty good deal, since you save A LOT of money, and you get a better education than a University would offer, since in this institution, one can go up to their professors to ask any questions.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Always manage your time wisely. This is still college, so there may come a time when you will be overwhelmed by the workload. The best way to avoid these types of situations is to make yourself a personal calendar of due dates.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Those who want to meet with their professors personally. Not everybody can just sit in a room the size of an auditorium and no expect to stop and ask for questions when something doesn't click right away.
