Categories Rating Comments In three sentences EGCC has many diversified programs for everyone from nursing to education to office administration. EGCC has excellent instructors willing to go the extra mile to help their students excel in each course. The staff and advisors assist the students with letting them know what is needed to enroll and succeed in their program.
Tips for prospective students The courses are thorough so hard work and dedication is needed to succeed. If you need the extra help, ask for it as EGCC has the tutoring available. Utilize everything that your instructors have to offer as well as the study aids that come with your textbooks. Make sure you get your work in on time and follow through with all parts of the assignment especially if you are taking an online class.
Academic Rigor The academics at EGCC are excellent. But as with all courses, you get out of a course what you put into them. As a nursing student, I have found the courses to be challenging and fulfilling.
Dorm Life EGCC does not have dorms as they are a community college.
Food and Dining I do not go to main campus so I do not know about the food they offer. They have many satellite campuses and those sites do not have a cafeteria but they do have vending machines with microwaves.
What to do for fun The Valley Center offers Student Senate, a variety of activities for the students and their families as well as many activities at the main campus.
Bang for the buck EGCC is a great college for students looking for retraining or for a second career. The academic offerings are quite extensive and everyone can find a new career for themselves.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Our campus (Valley Center) and we are expanding out into the community doing offering more help to our community than ever before. The fun things we do for our families like Easter Egg hunts really bring the kids into the picture letting them know that EGCC cares about them and their future too!
Great for these types of students EGCC is not only for the traditional type of student but for students like myself looking for a second career. There is a diverse population at EGCC. We are a giant melting pot!
Clubs and Activities There is student senate, sporting activities and many other activities always being posted at campus. There is always something going on!
Greek Life There are many sororities and activies associated with Greek life at main campus.
Campus Safety There is always campus safety present at the Valley Center. I am sure main campus would have it also.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Eastern Gateway Community College is great for local students; if your GPA in High School is 2.5 or better, you receive the Horizon Grant, which is free tuition for 2 years! It is a great college to go to if you are unsure about what you want to do for your future. They also offer good opportunities and the faculty members I had were very great instructors.
Tips for prospective students EGCC has a scholarship application that you should fill out by March 1st. It has many different scholarships that you can apply for. Also, the college is excellent for people considering the nursing or electrician field. They also offer many other programs you can choose from! The school also makes it easy to transfer.
Academic Rigor The instructors I have had throughout the 2 years I've attended EGCC have been fantastic. The school offers many different programs that are available to you in 2 years. The counseling services they offer are very helpful when needed to register, transfer, etc.
Dorm Life EGCC does not offer housing, but the college is located in Steubenville, OH, so its so near to Toronto, Weirton, Mingo, Wintersville, and many other towns and cities. I know many people that commute from all over the area.
Food and Dining Froehlich's Classic Corner caters to EGCC. They have a cafeteria you can order food, and they also have snack and pop machines in the cafeteria and throughout school.
What to do for fun The school has different activities. They have a Student Council, who organizes different school functions. The college also has different types of sports teams to play for fun.
Bang for the buck All in all, the school is a good community college if you're looking for something small and local.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The school is great for the community too, because they hold a ton of different functions outside and in the school, such as flea markets, spelling bees, etc.
Great for these types of students The college is great for people training for nursing or electrician work, and also many other programs. Also, students unsure about what they want to do, or are looking for a cheaper way to pay for college, I would definitely suggest using the Horizon Grant for 2 years, then transferring for your other 2 years to a 4 year college. They will work with you to take the correct classes that will transfer for your major and degree.
Campus Safety I constantly see security guards on campus.
