Northwest Vista College is a beautiful campus with an awesome lake in the middle. The teachers there make learning fun and love to interact with the students as well as get them involved with extracurricular activities.
On top of that, there is a lot of resources, including library, computer lab, math lab, rooms to book for group projects and more. There is always someone to help you out, whether it be tutoring or utilizing resources.
Overall, I was really nervous for my first year of college in Fall 2019, however, the professors and administration made me positive that this college was one of the best schools to be at!

Loved this school man! Great resources for students and professors with advanced knowledge in their fields. Diversity and safety is a strong emphasis of this community college. The campus has plentiful greenery and is an amazing spot to chill around, especially with their inspirational lake being the center point of the campus. The campus is located around a suburban working populous with no dorms, so the party scene is nonexistent. Extremely cheap school with a rewarding educational investment in the end. As with any school however - parking can be a stressor, campus food is overpriced, and traffic can definitely be an issue around the campus at early AM working times (6-11AM).
By the COVID-19 pandemic hit during my senior year of high school, I was already committed to Trinity University in San Antonio, TX. However, after realizing that I would not be able to be back on campus for the Fall 2020 semester, I quickly withdrew my admission and chose to attend Northwest Vista College instead to complete my A.S and then transfer to a traditional 4-year university. Since all of my courses were remote, attending a community college was the more logical route for me. At first, I was apprehensive about what others would think about my choice, but everyone's college experience is different. My professors were incredibly understanding and flexible, adapted to the new remote environment, and made the workload manageable. I would not change my decision at all, I have no regrets.
