Anita - 11/13/2024

I have heard from my older sister who attended the college that it is a perfect 2 year college to attend. It is affordable and they offer plenty of 2 year programs. The commute is fairly pleasant and you can even attend classes asynchronously. I plan to go and pursue funeral service and embalming as my dream career and SAC is my first choice.

Rahimullah - 09/30/2024

Antonio College (SAC) is a respected community college that serves a large and diverse student population in Texas. It's known for offering affordable, quality education with a wide range of academic programs, including associate degrees and certificates in fields like healthcare, business, and liberal arts.

Isabella - 04/30/2024

Overall, my experience has been mediocre. Most of my professors have been apathetic and not very helpful at times while I’ve had other professors who were caring and kind. Some of my professors were rude, condescending and picked on their students. I was singled out by one professor and told in her own words that “I would never be a good enough writer.” The people here are sometimes kind while others seem apathetic and don’t care. The anatomy and physiology classes are impossible to pass and the professors are rarely available to help students for office hours and never show up for their students in the first place. It’s hard to make friends and most people aren’t very friendly or very apathetic and go in and out of the school. Mostly, I’m disappointed in the lack of help, understanding and empathizing I’ve gotton from this school. I’ve wasted a lot of time because I’ve not gotton the help I’ve needed in my science courses.

Bryanna - 03/21/2024

In my opinion, San Antonio College is an excellent undergraduate institution to begin at! They offer a variety of undergraduate programs for those interested in beginning a degree. Most teachers, in my experience, are nice and understanding. Some professors may be stern, but this is college! As long as students communicate, everything will be OK. Everything is available, from instructors' office hours to free food and clothing; there is always someone around the corner willing to help any student in need!

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

    Cautiously, I would face the timid liberal and begin; "Do not be idle young man, do not be frivolous, the work you have put in pales in comparison to what still must be done. Not simply regarding your studies, but your duties; as a citizen of the world. Your duties are to be learned; to be the accomplishment of a generation of immigrants. To be aware, to see on any side of this shrinking world that there is suffering. And to be active: this world is changed by timeless suffering, this world is far from perfect. Now the journey begins."

  4. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    The worst thing about the school, I am currently attending is finding parking. Its is getting harder to find parking spaces close to the building you have class by. The good thing about this is that it does encourage you to be early getting to class. You want to be early to get a great parking space and this causes you to be on time and early to your class. In other words, it is forced promptness and is effective to those who have a tardiness problem.

  8. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    I would have loved to known about the college community here at San Antonio College. I believed that this was going to be a hard endeavor which would only be the beginning of the flood of college stress. However, I am entering my last semester here and that has still failed to happen. The transition from high school to college was made much easier by everyone at SAC, from the students to staff. I would love to have not had those worries, and now with heading to a new campus, I know that I am ready for anything.

    Whenever I talk about San Antonio College I never fail to mention the character of our students. Both inside and outside the classroom, working class men and women of all ages and both sexes struggling to educate themselves. I consider it an honor to be in a class with ex-convicts, young mothers returning to school, and tradesmen who must adapt to survive. They have families to care for, dreams rekindled, and loved ones to succeed for. They contradict the Prestige, and defend the universal, everburning light of education. Changing the world with every underdog who enrolls.

    The most fustrating thing about this college. Is the San Antionio Colleges website because everything is so electronic these days, the way that they have the webcite set up, is confusing. Like, if you are trying to summit classes that you would want to take that semester and also pay online and no one knows how to manipulate the webcite to work with you. Also the colleges website has it to where you can email your preffesors if something comes up. Well the problem with that is that professors do not awanser it.
