Am learning a lot

I recommend Weatherford College! I am from a small town of about 3,000 people and I was scared to go to college because I have never been in a big school. College just sounded big. I looked at many colleges and they were all so big. This college was the best pick. Weatherford is a great town, it is close to Fort Worth and Dallas. Calm enough to walk around your neighborhood and meet new people. The college is just the same, from the beginning I made lots of new friends, including the teachers. Classes are small enough in order to learn and comprehend the lessons. We are able to ask questions and be comfortable with everyone there. My classes are small and friendly. My biggest class has like 20 students, who are also my friends. I fully recommend this college!

Love being so close to Fort Worth and Dallas, but without the violence and traffic. Love the town and college!
