Although I am not a full time student at Butler County Community College, I can easily tell that the school deeply cares about its students. All of the resources and technology available to the students is up to date and easy to access. I cannot wait to be enrolled full time at this university!

Review Butler County Community College

I loved going to BC3 for my Associates degree! Every professor I had during my two years there was so helpful and accommodating. There were a lot of activities on campus to help you to meet more students and just enjoy yourself. The only thing that took away from the traditional college experience is that there was not any kind of student housing (as it was a local community college). Other than that I would definitely recommend going here to anyone - especially those trying to save some money!

I am enrolled in a dual enrollment program with my high school for BC3. The opportunities that I have on this campus are incredible. I'm able to take classes that count for both my senior year of high school and college. The best part about this is that all of the students in this program attend on a grant, so even our books are free. Its given me a good idea of what college will be like and better insight for my future majors and careers.
