    Tips for prospective students

    Collin College is the best next step you can make, it's a great place to transition from high school to university life if you're not sure you're quite ready or need to improve your appearance for a college. This two year college provides a wide selection of programs that turn out highly prepared individuals.
    Great for these types of students

    Collin is great for students who are looking to get the basics out of the way, who aren't quite ready for university life or just want to take a quick course.

    collin college is an extremely great investment. the tuition is low, and the classes are great. i feel very prepared to take on a 4-year university after studying here.
    Tips for prospective students

    classes fill up fast, so make sure to register early to get in the ones you want! also, be aware that there are 3 main campuses, so make sure to schedule your classes at the same campus or else you'll be driving around like crazy!
    Academic Rigor

    the classes are what you make out of them. the intro and freshman level courses can be easy, but the advanced courses can be challenging.
    Dorm Life

    most of the campuses don't house students, but the campus on spring creek has student apartments which are decent, but you'd be better off looking for off-campus housing.
    Food and Dining

    cougar den is a great place to grab a bite between classes. they offer a wide variety of foods for all taste buds!
    What to do for fun

    there are an ample amount of clubs and organizations, from the little bachs music club, to the literary society for english majors and lovers. there are also small fitness centers located in each of the 3 main campuses, so students can exercise for free!
    Bang for the buck

    collin college offers one of the lowest tuition and fees costs for community colleges in all of texas, of course it's a 'bang for buck' !
    Great for these types of students

    the campus is great for students who are trying to save a few dollars and knock out their basics before moving on to a 4-year university. the college has many agreements with universities around the area to provide guaranteed admission to qualified students!
    Clubs and Activities

    as previously mention, collin college offers a decent amount of clubs. check out the school website, it lists all of them from a-z!
    Greek Life

    no real greek life, as this is a community college.
    Campus Safety

    i feel absolutely safe on the collin college campus, there is constantly security driving around campus.

    the recent change in collin turning into a 4 year university has helped the university and student reach a higher level of education. it has made it possible to become more prepared to transfer into a larger state university such as utd. overall the school is showing improvement in becoming a great stater school.
    Tips for prospective students

    start in collin its truly a great place to start and raise your gpa to an exceptional level.
    Academic Rigor

    the teachers in collin are there to challenge you and raise your intelligence by getting you to think not simply giving you the answers. the student to faculty ratio is very reasonable and helpful for most, and the faculty is always there to help.
    Bang for the buck

    if your looking to get your basics out of the way, this is the perfect place 12 hrs a semester will run you about 842$ this is what i recently paid very reasonable when utd is charging 4 times as much for the same classes.
    Campus Safety

    patrol cars are constantly driving across the campus ensuring the safety of the students.

    Am learning a lot

    Not only did I learn the criteria that was taught to me, but I also learned to be more responsible and make sure that I got all my work done. Also I think I am ready to go to a 4-year college now since I had a trial-run here and it jump started my college education.
    Am enjoying being here

    I liked how I wasn't stuck on campus because I still lived at home. I was able to go to my classes and then go to work or home without feeling homesick or trapped in one area. It was nice to just get done with my classes and then be able to leave and do whatever I wanted to do afterwards.
    Bang for the buck

    I took 6 classes for my first semester and it only cost me about $560. For a first time college student that was a lot easier for me to fork out, than a $20,000 tuition. Also since there are many campuses, you can choose many different professors in different campuses.
    Tips for prospective students

    It allowed me to switch from high school mode to college without having a complete environment change. I was able to stay at home, work and still go to classes. It was just like going to high school again but with more responsibility on your part for assignments.
    Great for these types of students

    If you aren't positive on what you want to do in your future, definitely go here because you can get some of your basics done at a cheaper rate. Also for students that want to go to college, but aren't completely ready to live on their own.

    Tips for prospective students

    Do your research. If you are undeclared, make sure you ask about the excessive hours fee. I did not know about it when I talked to the advisers and they knew I was undeclared.

    Tips for prospective students

    If you enroll as a freshman, do not slack off your first semester or else it will hurt your GPA.

    Collin College is a great school to start with, whether you know what you want to do with your life or not. Collin has partnerships with other Texas universities to help you get a good start on your college experience. That's only two sentences but I'll write this one to make a total of three.

    The atmosphere is wonderful. The students and teachers are helpful and nice. My teachers have all been amazing and have helped me so much.
    Tips for prospective students

    This is a great school for people who just graduated high school or for those who want to go to school yet are intimidated by large schools. This is a big school with lots of students and teachers but it is without the rush of larger schools. There are many places to hang out, meet friends or study. The teachers are professional, friendly and REAL. Most of them enjoy their work, the students and are willing to go above and beyond to help their students reach their potential. Its a great school and offers tours.
    Academic Rigor

    The teachers all expect you to be there and do your work. If you don't show up its your loss and you miss lecture and notes. The work is challenging yet not difficult if you study and show up for class
    Dorm Life

    I am off campus
    Food and Dining

    They offer many different types of foods and have a large cafeteria so students can sit and enjoy their meal. The food is affordable and edible:)

    They have a open gym for basketball and tennis courts. They offer many free activities for students like aerobics, Pilates, open swim and more.
    Bang for the buck

    They are building another building for a library which will be much bigger and offer more study rooms and computer areas.
    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    I enjoy the Humanities and language art and activities in the building. It is neat to see peoples art and to learn about different classes

    I never really choose this school. It was chosen for me based on what my parents were willing to pay for. But, the catch was get my associates degree from here, and I would be bale to go anywhere. But, it's not a bad school. It's the same basic classes every where. The social aspect is defiantly missing.
    Tips for prospective students

    Know where you want to transfer, and exactly what degree you want to receive. Also, know exactly what you want to be when finished with school. It makes you finish faster, and also makes it easier to know what to take and not take for classes. Also, when changing your mind it can delay your graduation date. I learned that the hard way.
    Academic Rigor

    It's not easy, you still have to work hard. But, it's easier than a four year school because they know you have to work, and that you're busy with other things other than a typical college student.
    Food and Dining

    There is a cafeteria and it's not too bad price wise or taste wise. Also, the book store has plenty of goodies for sure! But, being a commuter campus no one really eats there.
    What to do for fun

    Nothing, commuter campus. Make your own fun with your friends.
    Bang for the buck

    Super cheap! Defiantly a good price for a good education! Two years total, books and all will be about 2-4 thousand. If even that much.
    Great for these types of students

    Any student who has plans to transfer and is willing to work hard to do so.

    I felt it was very safe. I never felt unsafe once, and I even took night classes at times.

    There are tons of good, dedicated professors who really want to see these students succeed. Their admissions and adviser offices are very unorganized though, which can be frustrating. I think this is a great place to start your college career, before heading to the 4 year university.
    Tips for prospective students

    Going to Collin to start out your college career is a fantastic idea. You will get a feel for what college work is really like, while also saving thousands of dollars.
    Academic Rigor

    This also depends on what classes/professors you take. If you want to be challenged at Collin, it is definitely possible. But it is also possible to slide through with easy A's.

    No dorms.
    Food and Dining

    Cafe is super delicious with tons of options!
    What to do for fun

    Tons of organizations to join, if that is your thing.
    Bang for the buck

    One of the cheapest community colleges around these days. It is so worth it to get a few basic classes done here and save a few thousand dollars in the process.
    Great for these types of students

    This school is great for students who have a plan and are dedicated to transferring to a larger university. If you are one to kind of stand still and be content where you are, you will never end up finishing your degree and will most likely not be motivated to transfer to a larger university.

    Am learning a lot

    Great school! That's the first thing I have to say about my impression. Collin County Community College provides many tools to drive students to succeed. The professors are very helpful and always willing to communicate with the students at all time. My first semester experience was overwhelmed. It is my first year attending college and I had to get used to being in a routine of class work. Therefore, I made a couple mistakes of when and how to turn in some assignments. My English teacher was very sweet, generous and did not hesitate for any questions we had. She took the time to meet up with me for the mistake I have made not turning in work appropriately. I appreciated her kindness to help me achieve the goal. The lessons are short and understandable, always to the point of what was being taught and we enjoyed being in class ninety nine percent. It was such an eye opener coming from high school to college.
    Am enjoying being here

    Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful. My first classmate in Psychology class was respectful and willing to work with anyone else in the group. We had a group report of 7 pages. Each of us had to complete our parts we agreed on and it went very smooth. I had no problems with anyone I have met so far. I feel very comfortable being at school nights I have my classes. Safety issue is moderate.
    Bang for the buck

    The college tuition is VERY affordable. Also, the school is very helpful and on speed at everything including admission, financial aid and registration. Classes are very flexible with anyone who either have a full time job such as me or families, even someone who is active in an academic program.
    Tips for prospective students

    I'm very happy as a current student. My classes are enjoyable and easy to comprehend. Home works are moderate and the professors always make sure to remind their students not to forget. The school always make you feel very welcomed and classmates are nice. Great choice!
    Great for these types of students

    I attend courses at Collin College. I study at the Spring Creek campus and have just completed my first semester. The teachers are wonderful and each one makes sure that you understand the material. Everyone there is super-friendly and always open to questions.
    Am enjoying being here

    Collin College has a nice campus. There are many activities that go on such as a hot air balloon festival and ethnic diversity celebrations. It is easy to get around campus and, because it is all in one building, there are no long walks (or runs) needed to arrive at your next class.
    Bang for the buck

    This college was the cheapest one out there. I am paying off my loan while I am in school and, because the college is so affordable, it is relatively easy.
    Tips for prospective students

    Go a week in advance to check out where your classes are. This really helped me! Also, if you have questions don't be afraid to email your teachers using the cougarweb system they have set up. I recently had a question about my books for next semester, so I emailed the teacher. I soon found out that one of the $50 books listed as required really wasn't used in the class. Yay for saving money!

The classes that have benefited me the most are financial accounting, managerial accounting and intro to business because these classes are more in depth of the major that I want to go into, which is business. The college has great highly rated professors that have taught at high-level universities and have much experience in the workplace as well as at the collegiate-level.
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being at Collin College. I am a first-year student at Collin College and I like the atmosphere compared to high school. The atmosphere at Collin College is very welcoming and warm and the people are very nice there. Although it is a community college, the tightly-knit people make it feel like it is something more than that.
    Bang for the buck

    The tuition rate at Collin College is very inexpensive. Honestly, you will probably pay more for your books than the actual tuition and that is saying a lot! Rather than spending a bunch of money at a university the first two years of college, spend them at the nation's leading community college which has one of the lowest tuition rates in the entire country.
    Tips for prospective students

    My tips for prospective students would be to put in the effort and work and you will get As in all of your classes. Any students that don't do well are usually the ones who don't try. All you have to do is show up to class, listen to your professors and do the homework and studying and college will be a breeze.
    Great for these types of students

    Collin College is great for these types of students and I recommend it to anybody looking to further their education.

    My dual-credit courses that I've taken during high school has prepared me for the courses offered at this college. So I get some slack in most classes because most of the material overlaps.
    Am enjoying being here

    The school atmosphere is pretty strict, you meet people and talk to people only in your classroom or your group that you work in. Not very much socialization between people outside of the people you meet in your classes.

    Definitely worth the money to go here. A class is only 125 [without books], so it's definitely worth the money.
    Tips for prospective students

    A tip for prospective students is to read your books. You can take notes in your class but in order to make an A you have to read. I cannot emphasize this enough.

    You cant go wrong with a transition from high school to this university feeling college campus. Taking classes at Quad C are more intimate than a large university setting, but have the ambiance of and presentation as that of a university. The college campus setup provides its students with a university feel that not many other community colleges can provide. Take a class or a few here and you'd never want to leave the feel that Collin County College provides...
    Bang for the buck

    With everyone trying to save what they can, why spend money on Basic classes at a university when you can pay less by attending Quad C, be guaranteed an audience with your professors for help, and have the university feel without the main worry of how much will it cost me?

    Quad C is great for all introverted and extroverted individuals. Skittish about the college life then go here...don't want to sell your arm to pay for classes then go here...wanting a more intimate setting to learn but still have the university ambiance, then come here...whatever you'd want Quad C can provide.
