I had dreams of going to a giant college. In my senior year I destroyed my chances by failing math. I was devastated. TMCC was really my only option. My first day I walked in with the attitude of pessimism and negativism. I was so so surprised by the calibre of the teachers and the atmosphere of learning that surrounded the college. I learned more my first week there then I did throughout high school. I continue to be excited about what I'm going to learn each day.

    Love it. A lot of the instructors here are also instructors at UNR, so you are getting the same education for a much more affordable cost. Nice campus, lots of resources to help students, particularly the Tutoring and Learning Center. Really enjoyed my instructors. The only thing I don't like is that many, many instructors actually take attendance. It's hard for me because, even while I get As on assignments and keep a high grade in classes, I often get sick. I like classes that care more about what you turn in and less about how often you are there. Overall, great school. Cafeteria serves really good patty melts, too. I'd recommend going here.

    Overall, TMCC has been an excellent community college to attend to. The reason why they have been such an excellent school is because of the professors, the classes, and the students. The education being taught at TMCC as helped me become a better student overall.

    TMCC is a very friendly place for local students looking to succeed. The staff is very helpful and all of the teachers are there to help you to achieve your goal. I would highly recommend TMCC for anyone still deciding what path they want to go on in life.

    TMCC is great! I loved it there. There is cafeteria, areas with lots of couches and tables, a lot of computer labs; in the library if there isn't any computer space, you can bring your own computer or rent one. Good teachers, helpful tutors, etc. I loved the writing lab; very helpful.

    The academic aspect of TMCC is awesome. You really do learn a lot from professors who are passionate about the subjects they are teaching. It is a great place to learn a little more closely than you would at a university, due to the smaller classes and uncrowded tutoring centers.

    Provides a flexible schedule for MOST classes. Is a very affordable school that provides University level credits. Great way to break you into college and provides an easy way to transfer to a University later on.

    A school of opportunity for many who are first generation college students. The staff aid students as much as they can in order to help them have their necessary classes. Although, it is not a university, the diversity here gives you a feel of what it would be like.
