Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I have loved almost every class I've had here, even the ones that were more challenging. The faculty is excellent, and even though there are a few duds that slip in an out occasionally, this school by far has great teachers.
Am enjoying being here The atmosphere is so friendly and helpful all over. People greet you with a smile on their face and are willing to go that extra mile and do something for you.
Bang for the buck Being a 2-year community college, this school has one of the cheapest tuition rates around. There are also many scholarships you can get and they offer book buyback at the end of the semester for everyone.
Tips for prospective students Take a tour or a look around before you start, you don't want to get lost. Be friendly to your teachers, if you respect them then they will respect you.
Great for these types of students This school is great for all students who want a smaller step before going off to a big school or who just want their associate's. They also have a great nursing program, so I'd recommend this school for those students as well.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences ECC is an outstanding place to get an education. The faculty and staff are very attentive to student needs. No student should ever feel unfairly treated or ignored in this facility.
Tips for prospective students Make sure you check with your advisors on a regular basis. Make sure that you understand what your advisor is telling you. If you feel that your degree plan is not being properly adhered to, ask questions and get answers. Always get your coursework done and handed in on time. Follow the campus rules, have a good time, and remember to breathe.
Academic Rigor Most courses start out rather slowly and build to a deafening crescendo at mid-semester. After that point, the rush is both exhiliarating and exhausting. Courses then tend to wane after that point and slow down towards finals week.
Dorm Life Not at community college!
Food and Dining On-campus cafeteria is average. Nothing to write home about.
What to do for fun Get off the campus and have a life! If you have the time, use it wisely and unwind. Your brain will thank you.

Tips for prospective students check out the courses offered in the summer time. talking to the advisors about possible ways to get ahead is a great way to begin to head in the right direction for your future.
Academic Rigor i took a biology class that was the most difficult thing i have ever had to do. i think that the nursing and science programs, especially, are extremely challenging.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I am a fine arts major and have learned so much. I just finished my first year and learned so much more about painting and drawing techniques than I ever expected. It's made me excited to start next semester so I can learn even more!
Am enjoying being here I spend most of my time at school in the art studios and art department. The school is small so all the teachers and other art students know me really well. It's like a little family and everyone helps each other with bigger art projects and tight deadlines.
Bang for the buck Because East Central is a small community college the prices are so affordable! My tuition, including books, is about $2,000 a semester. It's great for getting general education classes out of the way so I don't have to pay a ton of money to take them at a bigger school.
Tips for prospective students Don't be shy about going to the school and talking with students and teachers, especially in the art department. East Central is really friendly and all of us in the art department love to welcome new people into the studios and talk to them about fine arts and answer any questions.
Great for these types of students I can't speak for any other areas, but the fine art and graphic design students will fit well at East Central. I've heard the nursing program is really great as well.
