    Laredo College is a place where students like you and me can feel at home. Students who attend our community college are very welcoming and are always willing to help each other out. The advisors are committed to helping you join the program that best fits your major or current situation. This college has been acquiring many opportunities to expand, for example, it is currently under construction for a building based solely on the nursing program. It has further expanded the idea that a small college can be the key to further success and many opportunities that benefit you while transferring to a university!

    Laredo college is super fun, I feel like I’ve made a lot of relationships throughout this first semester! Being on the softball team is super fun as well because I get to play the sport I love! Making friends was something I thought was going to be hard but it seems like I fit right in! It is also a beautiful college and I like to explore around the college such as the environmental center because of the animals. Overall, Laredo college is the best!
    I really enjoy my experience here in Laredo College! Especially with the new renovations and constructions, this place continues to look better and better!
