Student Responses to Review Topic: Am I Enjoying Being Here

  • Jul-03-2011 I am a past student here

    I truly enjoyed attending FTCC. I loved the teachers, the students, and the environment. Although I encountered a few difficult teachers, for the most part they were very understanding and friendly. The students at FTCC are also more likely to be dedicated to their education since it is a community college where the majority of the students are non-traditional students (adults with a job/family who are trying to get a degree to better their lives), so you can be sure you won’t be bothered by any unnecessary distractions caused at typical four-year institutions. The environment is also very clean and inviting, so even when you’re not learning you can relax on campus.
