    Overall, Kilgore College is an exceptional start into the college world for those not quite ready for a university experience. It is a small college in a small town, driving students to work hard in school and become close with fellow classmates. It is also inexpensive, but students still receive a good quality education.

    Tips for prospective students

    My advice to future students would be to open up and meet as many people as you can. Because the town is so small, it is important to make friends and get creative with how to have fun. I've heard many students from Kilgore say that they do not enjoy it because of the city, but that is because they did not get involved or try to make it fun. Also, get to know your teachers. Show them that you are a dedicated student and ask questions whenever you have them. When teachers see you work hard and make an effort, they are more likely to help you out when you need it.

    Academic Rigor

    Kilgore College has its share of difficult and easy classes. I have noticed that many students have found the business and science courses the most challenging. From my own experience, I think that if you keep up with your work, and ask questions when they come up, it is not difficult. Like every college, students must be willing to work to earn their grades.

    Dorm Life

    Dorm life is fun if you make it fun. The people are interesting and enjoyable to be with, but the actual dorm is not so great. It has many maintenance problems that are ignored.

    Food and Dining

    There are two places to eat on campus. The Cafe is pretty good and has meals that you can order there and pay for that are very good although the service is slow. In the cafeteria, they always serve pizza then have other choices that change everyday. Sometimes it is really great, and other times it is below average. They do not offer many food choices there, but luckily several fast food places are right down the road.

    What to do for fun

    There are several church based organizations on campus that are fun and provide activities to do on certain nights. Also, there is bowling, a movie theater, and another theater that only costs two dollars. Downtown, which is right down the road, has several shopping boutiques, a frozen yogurt shop, delicious restaurants, and a coffee shop. Next door to the school is the oil museum that explains how Kilgore got its start. It is a small town, but full of rich history to be explored.

    Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

    Kilgore is home to the first ever drill team. The Kilgore Rangerettes are an all girls dance team that attend school and travel around to perform for many audiences. They have many traditions and are an interesting part of this schools history.

    Great for these types of students

    Kilgore is great for students that maybe did not do great in high school and need a boost before attending larger colleges. It is also good for parents that are returning to college and have not been in school for a while. It is a good transition school to help students get set on the right track towards a diploma.

    Greek Life

    There is not a Greek Life.

    Campus Safety

    There are always campus police driving around the campus keeping students feeling safe. They have an alert system that texts students when and where problems are occurring.

    As a high school Senior I have advanced my ranking with the help of Kilgore College dual credit courses from 17 to now ranked 4th in my graduating class, graduation May 25th.
    Kilgore College's help line and staff have been there to make any questions me or my parents had, easily answered which is very appreciated.
    When I graduate May 25th, I will have almost 30 college credit hours thru the dual credit offerings from Kilgore College, jumpstarting my carreer in the medical field.

    Tips for prospective students

    Kilgores accredition is one that is respectable because when my sister transferred to UNCP in North Carolina to work on her BA, all but one class transferred.
    Kilgore is a good school with alot to offer.

    Academic Rigor

    My professors in my college classes have been great to help and go above and beyond to assist me. As being a high school student this has been a blessing.
