5 Students rated Western Texas College

kaitlyn - 05/29/2020

After having visited and spoken to students, my future roommate, Admissions, Housing, my Head Athletic Trainer (I'm majoring in Athletic Training), I am excited and thrilled to be attending Western Texas College in the Fall. I am eager to partake in the different activities, programs, on-campus events that are offered to all Westerners (mascot). This is a new chapter in my life, and though I'll be leaving home for the first time, I am comfortable and excited to attend WTC because everyone I have spoken to has been encouraging and inviting to make me feel safe in my transition there.
