    Worst community college experience EVER. Professors were great, but financial aid was a mess. Attended for 2 years, they NEVER got it right.
    Tips for prospective students

    Find another college - no joke. Collin is not that far away and they are fantastic. Brookhaven is a mess. No organization between departments, wrong information given by financial aid which resulted in serious problems every term, went through 3 different financial aid director's in one year, horrible, HORRIBLE for financial aid. I am a 34 year old student with experience at other colleges, none of them were like Brookhaven. Don't waste your time if you need financial aid. I would go so far as to advise students to move to Collin county to attend a school that knows what they're doing. Worst experience EVER at Brookhaven.

    A diverse campus with many degree options. New science and health facilities offering accredited nursing program, EMS, radiology and a variety of other allied health careers. Faculty is stable and extremely dedicated to the success of their students.
    Tips for prospective students

    Enroll early, classes fill quickly due to the high demand for this college. Get involved in one of the many student groups on campus. Complete your associates degree and your block curriculum before you leave Brookhaven.
    Academic Rigor

    Offers basic core curriculum and a variety of degrees. Science degrees require hard work and dedication. Nursing program has multiple accreditations and bridge programs with Texas Tech and The University of Texas at Arlington.
    Food and Dining

    School Bookstore offers variety of snacks. Subway in Student Services building. Vending machines everywhere.
    What to do for fun

    There is always something happening on campus. There are multiple student groups including Student government, Phi Theta Kappa, International Group, to name a few.
    Bang for the buck

    Community college is a great bargain. By completing your core curriculum, you can transfer to another Texas state school with your core classes in tact. By completing your associates degree at Brookhaven you can save hundreds and sometimes thousand of dollars when transferring to a 4 years university.

    Am learning a lot

    Never underestimate the quality of learning found in community colleges. Brookhaven College has passionate professors that, in personal experience, have been inspiring and eccentric, something that catches attention. Government and World Literature professors challenged students with critical thinking on current events that was unexpected and delightful to take part in.
    Am enjoying being here

    Aside from the occasional fellow student that takes the college for granted and fouls community spirit on campus, the school itself and its academics are worth the experience. Many days outside of class have been spent enjoying the upkeep and aesthetics of the campus, and inside of class have been some great moments for critical thinking (in an enjoyable sense).
    Bang for the buck

    Compared to tuition prices at four year universities and the quality of the class taken personally, this school is worth the tuition and books (when textbooks are not rented from the library).
    Tips for prospective students

    If you want to avoid traffic, arrive early and leave late. There's computer labs and a Subway cafe in the student building to eat at.

    Don't forget to keep your eyes open for interesting forums or auditions for performing arts. By far the most rewarding experience was acting in a theatre production on campus.
    Great for these types of students

    Great for motivated students, especially those wanting to transfer to any four-year Texas university that cannot afford undergraduate credits at a four-year.
