Vet Tech Institute of Houston Reviews
Rating 4.08 out of 5 139 reviews
First I was really overwhelmed with the huge building, yet sooner that feeling went away as I got comfrotable with the area. I appreciate the staff for being super friendly and thank you for how helpful you guys were answering my one billion questions. If you are more into hands on learning, then this should definitely be an college option for you! The facility offers labs, prep rooms, and surgery rooms for us students to practice and show what was learned in lectures. To top it off, the Vet Tech Institute makes sure needs are met - they're here to help before and after you graduate. One thing I wish was a shorter distance from where I live. HA, anyone would love to avoid the Houston traffic. I really should not complain, i'm lucky because they only have 4 other locations and those place's would be a plane trip away.
While the hands on experience is invaluable, they don't care about students. They throw instructors into classes with less than 5 days preparation. There is constant misinformation and the school puts zero money back into the school. The chairs and desks are broken, there's mold in the basement, kennels are broken and don't latch, and they can't seem to hire competent instructors. A few of them are pretty good, but it's a select few! Students were threatened to be kicked out when this was brought up . This has the potential to be a great school, but is very poorly run. I will say that the animals are a top priority, and expect to have little to no time for lunch. If you can find somewhere to sit to eat.
It is a fast-paced program that I love. The teachers and staff are there to help you every step of the way and provide you with the tools that you need to succeed. I learn by doing, and this school is very hands-on which is the best way to learn!
