Kaitlyn

It's a good starter college for people that are either starting out slow, people that have a full time job and can't be there all the time, or people that started their life/career already and are going back to school. It is affordable (well what college is?) but it's cheaper than others. The online classes are great too! The only thing I would warn others about is the counselors. I wasted money taking a class that I didn't even need according to my degree plan because a counselor at the college said I needed it. I went back in the middle of the class' semester and the other counselor asked me why I was taking it because I didn't need it! So double-triple check that ALL your classes are according to your degree plan! Don't waste money!

Brooke

This is a great stepping stone to go to a bigger university. While it may not have all the campus life that you would like it makes up for with amazing professors. The classes are small enough that you can have a good relationship with your professors and most of the time they are willing to help you. I loved that i went to this college before going to a university. It helped me learn how to be independent but also i wasn't fully alone.

Jonathan

Very good for the price. The tuition here is about two times cheaper than most public universities and much cheaper than private universities like Rice. Be careful to choose the right major for your desired major/job later in life, as you may end up wasting money. I saved about a year's worth of tuition and rent. Would recommend.

Katelyn

There are a lot of great things about their school. One, they are less expensive than a lot of the other schools I know. Two, the average classroom size is 25-30 students so that’s great. Three, there are people there who can help you with anything you need. Overall, this is a pretty good campus to start at.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    If I could go back in time and give myself a bit of advice about college life and responsibilities I would focus on the word "time". Time, patience, determination, more time and alot of breathing. College is so overwhelming in the beginning and maybe a bit frightening to some and if you dwindle your time with less meaningful things and aspects of your life then expect a bit of trouble. I would give myself a lecture on what it means to be an adult with all of the adult repsponsibilites such as waking up on time, getting ready on time, being alert in class and all throughout the day, time allowance to go to and from class and campus., time for little breaks to regroup and study. Study what a big word. This means so much, and while you are in college it honestly is a neverending process. You have to be willing to put things asside and make time to study and focus, even if you have to stay up all night until the wee hours. Yes it is hard, but I would tell myself, you have to stay focused and make time, it will pay off.

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

    In my opinion on what type of person should not attend the school I am currently attending would be someone who is above average when it comes to financial status. Someone who wants to just hope right in to a four year university and knows exactly what they want to do, they should not attend this school. I am going to a two year community college and the alumni is extremely diverse. Single parents are enrolled, single mothers, kids still in highschool, retired seniors..etc.. Students who have the available funds for expensive higher learning institutions shouldn't enroll here.

  9. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    The worst thing I consider about my school is one thing and one thing only. My school has several branches and therefore some classes offered at one campus are not offered at another. From my personal experience , I need around four to 5 art classes which include drawing, painting, ceramics and a few others. These particular classes are not offered at my branch of the college. They are offered about one hour away. This can be very difficult since this area in Texas does not have a reliable source of public transportation, and I myself, do not have a car.

  10. What kind of person should attend this school?

    I believe that any person who wants to go to a smaller community college should attend. Going to Trinity Valley reminds me alot of being in my high school expect slightly larger. So anybody who wants to make a smaller transition from high school to college Trinity Valley is for them. Although the Valley is not the largest community college it still has sporting events and fun things to do around the school. I would suggest Trinity Valley for somebody who wants to make a subtle change from high school yet still have fun.
