I have never had so many opportunities to learn so much! The Professors are very open to discussion during office hours, and more than willing to help you if you need it, in almost every class there is also a supplemental instructor that holds smaller discussion classes to help clear up any problems, and there is a whole building dedicated to tutoring (The CASA, Center for Academic Student Achievement). If you don't feel you're learning it quite right, there's always somebody to help you. You don't even have to ask.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The campus is rich with lush tropical foliage imported from all over the world. And being right on the beach is one of the most relaxing things I've ever known with all the stresses of school. The people are nice, the students are diverse, and there's always an opportunity to do something fun!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Like I mentioned earlier, TAMU-CC has one of the highest retention rates. They don't want to see you fail, and as such, offer a wide variety of tutoring and counseling services to help you do better. If I was going to a bigger campus or university I'm willing to bet my very little money that it wouldn't be anything like what we have here. Next semester I'm registerred to take 18 credit hours, and all of my tuition and fees only cost about the $3200 range, when on any bigger campus it would be twice that fo sure. Not only is it cheaper, it's also better because each professor really wants to see you succeed and do your best.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Develop good study habits before coming into college will make life a whole lot easier, but if you don't have good study skills, then the people as the CASA will help you learn new skills. Also, don't forget to have fun! there are plenty of things to be involved in around campus!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Great for all types of students. There's literally something here for everyone! Only on a Smaller Campus.
