Graduate Student: I was a student athlete at Galveston College and I attended college for two years at Galveston. I enjoyed it and living there was different from my hometown! Though Galveston may not be the safest and with Covid-19, the town would be very busy at times, it was still a great school. There was only softball and baseball at the college and the softball team did not have near as much as the baseball team did. Girl sports were very underrated and limited to many things. Athletes do live in new updated apartments that are nice and clean! The professors and staff at the college are welcoming and helpful of others. Galveston college is a great experience and has opening arms to all those who join.... Read 193 reviews

Other: Matthew McConaughey hosted a live event in April where he asked “what are the monsters under your bed?” Monsters under your bed are those things that keep you comfortable in your bed and asleep like you’re supposed to be but they also hold you back. DEFEAT every monster you have under your bed and maintain motivation to be the better version of yourself. CHCP, from instructors to your fellow classmates, offer encouragement and guidance. I receive calls from the wonderful staff at CHCP just checking in to see if I need additional support. There are so many resources and opportunities here. I hope everybody conquers the monsters under their bed cuz here you most certainly can! Thank you to all the amazing staff I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so far: Evan, Harold at northwest in Houston and all my amazing motivators in San Antonio. I buried my father during the first week of my first semester and NOW only a year and a half later, I’m working on my bachelor’s! All gas no breaks baby!... Read 97 reviews

Sophomore: Lee College is a cheap and easy way to get a college education. For the price, you get a pretty good education. Professors are there to help you, they understand when situations occur and are willing to work with you. Email and keep in contact with your professors! It's a well known community college for a reason. The professors are good at what they do, some are less communicative or involved than others. This isn't necessarily a bad thing because some classes are very straightforward and don't need lots of involvement. Every professor I've had is willing to work with you, keeps in contact, and responds to emails within a day. The courses have the same rigor as other colleges and even some universities. I really recommend Lee to students who want to have affordable college that gets them the education they need.... Read 331 reviews

Other: Lonestar College is considered a safe school, but it can still provide great opportunities to fulfill credits through the Dual Credit program to get ahead of the game during high school. Even after high school, Lonestar College provides easily transferrable credits through introductory courses like Physics and College algebra so you can quickly get ahead of your degree. Lonestar professors are proficient and dedicated to your learning by helping you understand concepts thoroughly through their great teaching skills.

Other: I think San Jacinto College is great! It's a helpful and cost-effective way to get your basics done and out of the way while not having to pay the considerably higher price tags that 4-year universities like to put on their introductory classes. The teachers and students I've met are all very nice, the campus isn't that bad looking and the fries in the student cafe are heavenly. My favorite parts are when the clubs or the school itself hold festivals and such. I've received a custom-made license plate, flowers, and even ice cream for free at them! Overall I'm very satisfied with my San Jac experience and would recommend it to anyone who may not want to pay the 4-year universities their high price for basics that can be done at San Jac....

Alum: As a graduate of the Texas Southern University Jesse H. Jones School of Business and Honors College, I recommend this institution for all your higher education needs. Most of my professors and advisors were excellent, most of my learning facilities were modern and top notch, and Houston is such an amazing city with so much to explore off campus. The cost of TSU has gone up tremendously so I highly recommend applying to as many scholarships as possible! If you're out of state, I recommend getting Texas residency first for cheaper tuition which is relatively easy to do (do your research). Also the cost of living near campus has gone up tremendously so I highly recommend finding a roommate who has a lot in common with you to help lower the cost ... Iiving alone can be costly. If you can't seem to find a roommate with a lot in common with you, just find a STEM major. STEM majors usually spend a lot of time doing school related stuff ... barely see or hear from them....

Sophomore: I liked being in ACC. They give a lot of merit-based scholarships. The campus student life is more like a small town. (You will encounter people you’ve met before in your classes again in other classes. That way you can develop friends easily and have some commonality. Most people are generally very friendly. ACC offers tutoring services and writing help for those who need it (all for free of course). ACC also allows students to work at student jobs for about $10/h. A rare thing that this campus has is a child lab center for students to drop off their kids while they are attending school. Basically like a daycare and it’s just around the corner on campus!...
