Barton County Community College is one of the best and cheapest community colleges I have ever seen and attended. They offer many services on campus and they makes you feel safe. The people are friendly, the instructors encourage you and want you to succeed and there are always activities going on campus.
Tips for prospective students
If anyone is contemplating on enrolling at Barton County Community College, I recommend you do so and you will never regret that choice. Schedule a campus tour during the fall or spring. Continue to work hard, stay focus and be determined to soar for new heights in every semester and make sure turn in your assignments on time.
Academic Rigor
The teachers are very patient and generous and tries their best to help and get you where you need to be.
Dorm Life
The dorm life is amazing. You are treated like an adult they way you wants to, they have several washers and dryers for free, and also the janitor cleans the bathrooms and sink and sometimes vacuum your room if you request it.
Food and Dining
The food is very delicious. You have many options to select such as the burger bar,salad and fruit bar, and also breakfast/lunch/dinner bar, they also has a desert bar at lunch time and an ince-cream machine.
What to do for fun
You can join clubs , organizations and sport clubs on campus. We also host a $3 movie night every two weeks, a free bingo every two weeks and also free bowling night for 2-3 hours. We also host parties for the Halloween and the super bowl weekend.
Bang for the buck
At the end of each semester you sell your books back to the bookstore for half price or 1/4 of what you spend depending on if you purchased a new book or used book

They has many rules and regulations but just for your safety. Once you obey the rules then you won't get fine or anything. I never see anything on campus that made me feel unsafe.

I am having a great time meeting new people and playing baseball. I am learning to organize my time better to get my homework turned in on time. Barton is just the right size to transition into college from High School
