The school is a good school, but there are things that definitely would need to be corrected and changed as this also would pertain to many other colleges and universities that students might attend. But altogether the school is a good trades school if you're looking for something that's quick and easy to participate in.

TSTC is the place to go if you want to get ahead in life. Everyday you learn a new concept and understand a new idea. There is not one day that you are not working with circuits, robots, lasers, culinary practices, dentistry art, or with motors. This college is different from any other college for the sole fact that all learning is hands on. Everyday your professor will guide your through the mountains and wilderness to the river of knowledge. Your success only depends on if you will take the initiative and drink from the river of knowledge and become someone successful that you will be proud of. That's it. TSTC is technically better in every way.

Texas State Technical College Waco is a great school for its location. You learn a lot which is roughly 80{6f65e1278338a62264eed73e2adc5af8e2841420db12ceb4f80b8db22f3260ec} hands-on learn and 20{6f65e1278338a62264eed73e2adc5af8e2841420db12ceb4f80b8db22f3260ec} lectures. The instructors at TSTC are always willing to go above and beyond to encourage new learning style and assisting students who are in need of extra hep. Compared to other two year colleges who does most lectures, TSTC allows the student to use the actual real world equipment so everyone gets feel of what they may be working with once they are out in the industry. I am glad that I attended TSTC because it gave me the motivation to continue on in my career path and now I am currently pursuing a BAAS as a transfer student. Class of 2020!!

The classes were small and the teachers very helpful. I was in the electrical field which I was one of two females in the course. The direct learning for what we would encounter in the field was great. The labs were fun and interesting. It's perfect for a fast track into a career with great starting salary.

  10. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    Students who are interested in a four year university would be much better of going to a school that better fits their wishes. At this school, you are well prepared in your degree program and you become very familiar with a smaller group of students, teachers, and advisors. Although many benefit from this, others wish for the four-year university experience with larger classes and a larger school as well. This technical school is much different from a major university with a larger campus.
