Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I am a Biotechnology major so all my classes have a lot of information to give and I have plenty to receive. Not only that, the math, English, and even the computer classes have taught me things I never knew of.
Am enjoying being here The campus is very peaceful, because it's a community college, everyone that comes here is really focused on getting their work done. The teachers are really friendly and down to earth ant they will work with you in any case. I have one of the toughest majors and the teachers and students really make it less stressful for me. The study areas are comfortable and private, which is great for when you want to study for an upcoming exam. However, there are also group study rooms that allow up to 6 people to study together.
Bang for the buck I received the SEED scholarship which is for well behaved Delaware high school graduates with a GPA of 2.5 or above. It pays for all my tuition for up to 6 semesters, excluding summer semesters, and I can say it's a true blessing to not have to pay tuition. It also pays summer semesters if your credits are eligible, too. However, for out of state students or students that graduated from high school awhile ago, there is plenty of financial aid available. Trust me, there are hundreds of scholarships that the college itself offers to its students. All you have to do is submit one application for all of them and the Financial Aid Committee decides who will get them. I have not paid for anything in the three semesters I have attended!!
Tips for prospective students Just keep in mind that just because it's a community college, that doesn't mean the classes are much easier. DTCC actually has a tougher grading scale than many Universities out there so my suggestion is to always be alert and on top of your classes. It will definitely help you in the future.
Great for these types of students If you're looking to go to a college that can help you get your degree the smartest and cheapest way, then this college is for you. I did not plan on attending a community college just because of the name and my pride. But, I made the last minute decision to attend and get my prerequisites out of the way for way less money and then transfer to a university to further my education. So far I can say this has been one of the smartest decisions I habe made in my entire life and I don't regret it. I suspect you won't either if you're in this for a similar reason.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences if i had to rate delaware technical and community college, i would give them 9 out of 10. delaware tech has instructors that care and will strive to help their students succeed in every way; the coursework is challenging, yet manageable for the working student. parking can be frustrating since there are not as many spaces as there are student.
Tips for prospective students ensure that you arrive to the college early since there are more students than there are parking spots. speak with your advisor frequently as they will help you select the correct courses at the correct time; some are prerequisites and/or corequisites of others.
Academic Rigor some classes are mainly lecture-based, as other instructors encourage group learning. tests are challenging, reading is required, and there are papers and journals due frequently.
Dorm Life delaware tech is off-campus only.
Food and Dining delaware tech has a cafeteria that accepts cash only. they have some healthy foods, however mainly serves quick lunches, such as chicken tenders and french fries. the bookstore has snacks and does accept credit cards.
What to do for fun delaware tech has a gym that is free to all students and has very flexible hours. there are very few sports that are available as the school is located in the heart of wilmington. there are many clubs that are available to students.
Bang for the buck delaware tech has an excellent tuition rate for its top-notch courses.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus none.
Great for these types of students delaware tech is great for working students because of its flexible scheduling and low tuition rate.
Clubs and Activities there are not many sports available but there are a vast array of clubs in each of the majors.
Greek Life none.
Campus Safety there is one entrance to the college and is guarded by security; photo id must be shown to enter. if one is not used to the city, the wilmington campus can be a little unnerving at first, but it is completely safe.
