What Students Are Saying

I loved attending CTC. The professors were very helpful and good teachers. It was easy to get the information I needed.
Alexandria from Nolanville, TX
central texas college is a great experience for a person that has no idea what to expect from life as a new college student. it is conveniently located and, for anyone that is paying for school out of pocket, the school offers a payment plan. i just wish that the school offered a trolley or transportation system during the day for those that have to walk long distances between classes and need to get there quickly.
DeAndria from Copperas Cove, TX
Central Texas College is a great educationa institution for students who want to get basic courses done for the most affordable tuition prices in the U.S. Most of the instructors I have had are great and are more than willing to give helpful advice and assistance for those who want to excel in their classes. Central Texas College also provides great opportunities to those who are looking to advance their careers though their wide range of associate degree plans from Business to Afgricultire to Culinary Arts!
