Tacoma Community College

At Tacoma Community College, I was welcomed by counselors with open arms and cheerful attitudes. I have always felt intelligent and welcomed even though I am only a running start student. But here, that means no different than a normal college student. Every professor I have had has encouraged questions to be asked and is always available during office hours or through email, phone if it is urgent. There are even some professors that will take the time and effort to learn the names of each and every student, regardless of the class size.

Tacoma Community College is a very future pressing school. They are always advocating for students right and has many faculty who support you and your future. The staff make the effort to help you in any way they can by showing you the best resources for you and then making sure you get that help on a timely bases. Don't get me wrong though, the teachers will make sure that you are doing your own work and not someone else since they are big on the plagerism. Security is one of the best since the location is between 3 cities, Tacoma, University place, and Fircrest so there is little fear of coming face to face with a criminal on campus.

It was very nice and easy. I attended through running start, so I was basically just a high school student running around and all that. The community was nice and accepting so it was easy to get along with both the professors and my fellow classmates who ranged from my age up to upper fifties!

It's a good school, especially for students that need a longer transition into college. It feels less intense while still providing a fantastic college experience and education. The professors are involved with campus groups and activities and encourage student involvement as well. Overall its a wonderful transition school to work on a degree, without the price tag of a 4-year university.

Tacoma Community College (TCC) provides students with professors who want us to succeed. TCC provides many resources such as: tutoring, the writing center, studying centers, etc. It is very welcoming and easy to make friends. I love the environment of the school and how open the school is to current political issues. TCC brings awareness upon different cultures, and TCC provides educational activities and events. The school fits me and makes me enjoy school.

I think as far as community colleges go, this is one of the best out there. There are a variety of classes, one for every student. The professors are very passionate about what they do and are knowledgable in the subjects they teach. Sports aren't everything, but as far as I can tell, our teams are exceptionally good. If you are looking at going back to school or transitioning from high school to university, I cannot recommend a better school to go to.

It’s exactly in the middle. There are no dorms but there are public transportation on the campus. There are also many grocery stores and such across the street. As a public school it is welcoming and the students get along well. There aren’t many problems besides some who smoke or drink. Academically there are many to choose from so there’s a great variety.

I like TCC I think for a community college there are a lot of high quality professors. The class sizes are small no more than 45. I was worried coming from WSU that I would not receive the same level of education, but the professors are just as good without all the extra fluff; that is not always necessary but happens at bigger universities.

Best community college in the state. Tacoma community college has always been underrated and overlooked because it is a community college. The fact about Tacoma community college is that they help their students to have the best future possible. Students can relate and onetutoring with the lecturers. In Tacoma community college they are more book focused and encouraging.

Tacoma Community College is a great school that is filled with opportunities fore everyone. Whether you love to write, read or absolutely love art, you fit in. The culture here at Tacoma Community College is very positive, it is very easy to make friends.
