    I have enjoyed my time overall at Coastal Bend, although there has been many problems with the school as have not treated the international students right, causing over 50 international students to leave within my 2 years at the college.
    Coastal Bend College is a great starter school however, its opportunities are extremely limited. I enjoyed my time here at Coastal Bend College. Although, I prefer a larger university that can offer a more diverse experience. Majority of my courses were done online therefore, my time spent within the Coastal Bend community was very limited. I highly recommend taking your dual credit courses through this program.
