Categories Comments Campus Safety You can definately feel safe on this campus. It isn't very big and majority of the time everyone knows each other.
Greek Life There isn't one.
Clubs and Activities There isn't many activities. However, there is a lot of clubs for Native American culture.
Great for these types of students Native American.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There are multiple Native American clubs and organizations.
Bang for the buck The cost of tuition at TMCC is cheaper then any in the state of ND. Especially if you are Native American, TMCC is the place for you.
What to do for fun There are multiple activities at TMCC. Clubs for just about anything you would like. (alot of people start there own) There isn't much but it's basically for an education and not a living space.
Food and Dining They have a cafeteria but not a wide variety of choices for food.
Dorm Life TMCC doesn't have dorms.
Tips for prospective students If you aren't from the local area and aren't on a sports scholarship TMCC doesn't have dorms. You will have to find your own means of housing and transporation.
In three sentences Considering the fact that my school is a tribal college, I would rate it on a scale from 1- 10 (10 being the best) an 8. It's one of the best tribal colleges in ND. I would highly recommend TMCC.
