    Gateway Community & Technical College Reviews

    I can not say much on how the axtual classes are going to be. I start class next Monday and I used to be excited. I'm an adult 38 years old and I'm currently on disability for mental health reasons. The process so far to enroll and seek help financially seems discouraging. If college is necessary in life as a goal then is the schools purpose to bleed us dry before our achievements? I know it is not the schools fault however when young adults make this commintment straight out of high school, they have courage! Gateway has communication barriers that bother me, some of the representatives are kinda ruude and others are warm and welcoming. I have not given up yet my journey has just began. I hope my future with Gateway is better than my enrollment process. In the beginning I was lead to believe my starting date was mid August. I am starting officially September 10th. I have no school equiptment, and a lack of enthusiasm thanks to this process. I have made the school aware. Its 😢

    Gateway is a very good community college to begin in; I have been attending since 2016, and it is a great college with excellent professors. They offer a large variety of courses and majors. All of the faculty is concerned for each student's well being and provides many resources for academic success as well as stability in life.

    Compared to other colleges, student life is not very prominent. There are not too many activities after classes available, no common areas such as cafeterias present, and there is a very small presence for club gatherings, social events run by students, and the like. What is present, however, is meaningful to campus and its students as a whole.

    It is a great return on the investment. I have not only learned essential knowledge in my field of study, but I have grown as a person as the result of the personal attention Gateway staff gives to its students.

    I look forward to my remaining years at Gateway and reach career readiness from within.
    Great opportunity to learn. Small class sizes. Staff truly care about each student. Variety of classes, lots of options within the KCTCS network of colleges. Online classes and on campus options make Gateway the perfect choice for anyone's schedule. Gateway is affordable as well. All around great choice for a college.
