Austin Community College District Reviews

Austin Community College is a great college. Almost all of the professors there care about the students and are willing to help them if needed. The teacher-to-student ratio is also small so most professors will learn your name and who you are as a person.

Austin community college is great at accomodations for physically and mentally disabled students. Individualized plans for each student can be made and I have heard the accommodations provided level the metaphorical playing ground.

I have been to 2 different campuses: Cypress Creek and Round Rock. I have enjoyed my time at Round Rock more due to the fact that I have learned a lot from these professors. Cypress is a very small school and it seems like they are the forgotten campus. Round Rock is very up to date and offers many services that Cypress does not. I did not like that my program was only offered at Round Rock. I would like to see other campuses offer popular programs instead of just pre- reqs.

The professors would help me if I needed help and it was easy to make new friends and everyone was so welcoming

So far Austin Community College has been a great experience. Although i have not enrolled in in-person classes just yet it still has been great so far. I recently moved from my hometown El Paso Texas and the first thing I thought of where my education take place next. ACC has a lot to offer especially their Nursing program which I take interest in. I plan to be a full time student soon and I plan to earn my associates in Registered Nursing then be transferred to a university to obtain my Bachelors. Currently, I pay for my tuition all on my own and the help of a scholarship would be fantastic. I want to complete my education on time and have an early start on my career ahead of time. I am very persistent and ACC has helped me reach my goal so far.

Austin Community College is a great path to higher education. I think it's great for high school graduates because it gives them a chance to grow more first instead of rushing off to university. The different ages and backgrounds of students bring a level of stability that you don't get anywhere else. It's a good place to get your bearings, knowledge, and skills to navigate student life. They now offer bachelor's degrees in computer science too! We often get referred to food pantries and the free public transportation access has been a great help for me. The classes can be much smaller, so you can become more familiar with professors. You can get free tutoring for subjects. The professors have enough time to help you and are understanding. They accommodate disabilities and emergencies. My only complaints would be ACC needs to be expanded and that all campuses could be linked through public transportation to each other. Overall, ACC is stabilizing and understanding.

I absolutely loved the Highland campus coming into my freshman year, the vibrant atmosphere made it easy to stay focused.

I started school here back in 2018 and was unfocused. Since then, I've had time to change as a person post-Covid years. I'll be jumping in head first and an official full-time student as of January 2024. Going back with a positive mindset is what's going to help me achieve success. All my classes will be in person and I'll be getting a new part-time job to fund other personal responsibilities and bills. I very much look forward to maintaining a disciplined schedule. Right now I genuinely need a change and am prepared to absorb all the information I'll be learning with better Professors.

The environment is nice, campus is clean and easy to navigate. The teachers are all super nice and helpful and student resources are wonderful.

I liked that it was a small campus in comparison to traditional four-year universities. The classes were small as well (less than 40 students max) so my professors were readily available to offer additional assistance if needed. There's also various clubs and organizations on campus for those who want to socialize. The main thing I loved was how much money I saved by going to a community college without it feeling like I was losing out on the college experience.

I took classes over the summer that were all virtual. The staff was very nice and ready to help, it seemed as if they cared about what they were teaching about.

Teacher and staff are very helpful and kind, they have a good study environment. Theta also have good academics

Austin Community College is a great school that allows for growth as a student. There's tons of supports ranging from counselor's, librarian's, & the front desk receptionist. I wouldn't change a thing about this school, its great as is!

I love ACC. The tuition rate is amazing. The diverse classes offered and time / online is incredibly helpful.

I think there are many resources to help students prepare and learn for their classes or any material that the students don’t understand. ACC provides not only tutoring resources, but also financial help for students which I think is greatly appreciated.

So far the teachers this semester have been very helpful and caring. I have epilepsy and was given accomadations to help me while I deal with my special medical needs. My teachers have given me extentions on my work and make up tests when I have an episode and cannot come to class or see straight. I wouldn't be able to continue my education at this time. They have been very understanding. I also like the smaller class sizes, because I get more one on one time with my teachers.

I am a registered student with ACC, technically, but have not been able to get a single class, been assigned an advisor or provided any of the tools for successes at this "school". I have been attempting to attend class for over two years now, but there is always something that is holding up the process. Either they lost a transfer transcript or financial aid is goofy. Then after dealing with the issue I always check to see if there are any other issues that I need to get started. I am told no, just to be met with another stop point.
Most recently (Today), I was suppose to meet with an advisor (finally through the other hoops) to get me on my degree path and set up my first set of classes, but once again another hurdle. They canceled my appointment stating it was due to the fact I have 12 credit hours.. I'M A TRANSFER STUDENT!!!. So if you are transferring to here, please be prepared to spend way to long, and wait weeks to get answers back from this joke.

Overall, Austin Community College is a great school. They have so many opportunities available and ways to help their students along their journey. They offer support for all types of students, whether it is your first time in college, you are a parent or working student, older and going back to school. They have many different campuses available and offer many online class options to meet the needs of students. The one thing I wish they had more of was computer science courses. I found that at times, there were only a couple of classes offered for certain courses and you kind of get stuck with a professor that may not be the best fit or it may not be the best option to fit your schedule. Other than that, it has been great.

Overall loved my experience with this school, I felt I got a lot of one on one attention with professors when I was struggling and the small classrooms helped keep my attention and focus.

Overall, my experience with a Austin Community College is really nice. They are great and understanding in the professors are really nice. They help me out on times where I need a little bit of extra time on assignments and they are understanding. They are flexible with my work schedule and I just love it.
