Meridyth - 02/08/2020

My opinion of Central Carolina Technical College is that there is a lot of room for improvement. There is very little on-site food available for students. Yes, there are vending machines, but eating a package of Oreo's at 9:00 am because it's the only thing available shouldn't be the normal thing for students. The facilities are always kept clean. My professors are very nice and very helpful. They are willing to stay longer than they need to after classes in order to help a student if the student asks.

Henry - 09/13/2019

It was garbage since day one, but the recent semester really got to me. I applied for my FAFSA, just like I did last year, no problems, just they were late the first time. Mistakes happen, no biggie. This semester (Fall), I applied, sent in all of the paperwork, all the goods... About a month later, nothing, time was running out, and I didn't know what my balance (After the FAFSA was applied) until after. I had to pay a $30 fee because THEY didn't have it in the system right in time, and they still don't have it write almost a month into the semester. I got the app for the school, and it says I owe $600-700, and the website says I'm getting $100 back for a refund. Students have reported that big chunks of their expected refund go missing, and it happens EVERY SEMESTER. Keep in mind, I DID call the Financial Aid office to ask about the balance, they never answered, and I left two voicemails asking them to please call me back whenever they were able. The voicemails were two weeks apart, and they supposedly check the phone twice a day. The school is garbage, it has potential, but the wrong people are in Charge.

Jamie - 07/11/2019

This school is trash and is all about money. They absolutely do not care about students! They offer no health insurance for students, they don't allow any other loans than government loans, and the teacher and leadership (VPs) are rude and incompetent. The nursing program goal is to get rid of people. They do not teach you, you have to teach yourself. I had professors teaching the wrong information and who generally did not know the material they were teaching. They (teachers, dean, department heads, and VPs) treat you like you are in elementary school. They teachers and staff talk down to students and like they are doing them a favor to be there. I even had a tech assault me and the leadership did nothing about it!

Deanna - 06/26/2019

I absolutely love my college. I was worried about returning to college now that I am almost 50 years old but everyone has been so pleasant, helpful, and the experience has been wonderful all around. There are also a lot of opportunities for involvement in the college as well with clubs, and a lot of things to do in the city itself.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    If I could go back in time, I'd like to go further than my Senior Year. I'd go back as far as the third grade. I would apply myself more and push more. I'd take algebra and chemistry in high school. I wouldn't run from biology. I would make more time for studying and pay attention to the instructors. It's extrmely hard for one of the age of 48 to actually sit and study. I worked on production line for 13 years, and the fast paced job in the ER at a local hospital, so, by now, I feel as if I'm cheating the system if I sit for any reason, whether at work, school or home. If I could go back in time only to my senior year, I'd have to say to myself, "Stay awake in psychology, work harder in English, and take the harder courses. It's hard now, trying to remember al this stuff. I can remember Health. That was my favorite subject. Get study buddies. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it."

  4. Describe the students at your school.

    My classmates focus on their work while being relaxed and laid back. We don't stress ourselves out by doing work on time, studying as we go rather than right before a test, and paying attention during the lectures. They're easy to work with and are not distracting during class.

  5. Describe your favorite campus traditions.

    The friendliness of the staff. When you walk thru the doors, you're not hit with the feeling of a huge university. They have an open door policy. Any time you need to talk to your professor, you can catch the in the hallway, ask to speak to the confidentually, or just ask them how they're doing. This is the school I want to attend, and it is willing to help me meet my goal. My last semester grades don't reflect that, but this semester will be a great one. I can feel it in my bones.
