Kandyce - 04/03/2020

Overall, ACC is a wonderful campus. It maintains a well kept appearance and is taken care of. Professors are engaged with the students and are an email away if needed. Also, when there are any campus activities students are sure to know about them! The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, as well as the administrations, it truly is a great place to be.

Alvin Community College is one of the best junior colleges in the nation. they offer to elite classes lead by some of the most intelligent professors, the class sizes are small which makes for a comfortable and very advanced learning environment. The student-professor relationships blossom, every professor is willing to go above and beyond to see each student excel and to also challenge the students. It is will great pride to say I started at ACC, they work very well with promoting dual credit to the local high school students and making their first college years the best.​

Alyssa - 07/13/2019

I started at Alvin Community college the fall of 2016. From the registration process to financial aid all advisors were very helpful and wait times are not bad during their heavy registration days. They offer activities every week for student and often give free food, drinks, school supplies, and school merchandise during these activities. They try to get students involved. Professors are held to a high standard and I have mostly had a good experience with every professor. I graduated with my Associate of Health Science in December of 2018 and am now in their nursing program. I definitely recommend this school.
