Austin College - Sherman (TX)

5 /5 Pluto Princess: Austin College has never been anything, but a positive experience for me. As a sophomore, I’ve fallen in love with the academic opportunities on this campus. The class work may be challenging, but AC never leaves you without a support system. With small classroom settings, professors are available to help with lessons or assignments all throughout class. Office hours are always available for outside help and there are even of free tutoring opportunities. As far as extra curricular activities, there are tons of them! Between Greek Life, personal expression clubs, language clubs and service groups… no interest goes unmet. If Greek life or clubs aren’t your thing, CAB (Campus Activity Board) makes sure there are events almost every night for students to take a break and relax with. Campus life is great, but to help prepare us for graduate life as well, Career Services strives to get every student career-ready. They offer Career-Readiness Checks, mock interviews, internship opportunities, resume critiques and more to ensure that every student feels prepared for the real world after graduating. Opportunities are endless here. I’m confident that by the time I leave Austin College, I will be better because of it.

5 /5 Shane Webb: I enjoyed my time at AC (class of 07) and it has made a lasting positive impact on my life. Not only did I enjoy the academics and extracurricular activities, I also met my wife there. It is in no way a perfect school, but has many opportunities. I am back on campus at least once a year and they have made many improvements, since I went there. I come from a humble upbringing and got minimal scholarships, but paid off my loans quickly after graduate school. Thanks to Austin College I got a full ride to graduate school. Great opportunities to travel and learn languages. Some people have had bad experiences, but that could happen anywhere.

5 /5 Katrina Dawn Miller: Austin College is one of the colleges Im considering after graduating from Grayson County Community College. I was given a tour today, and my guide was very knowledgeable. I can see myself as a student here in the near future.

5 /5 Craig Clarkson: I am not affiliated with AC. No one in my family has attended AC. My experience of AC is through a church-related senior high youth weekend hosted at AC each year. I started as an adult chaperone/sponsor for our youth then joined the event planning team. After 7+ years, I have come to love AC and its people. Everyone... simply. every. one... has been a pleasant person and servant-minded professional and the 100s of students I have dealt with have been nothing short of wonderful: bright, compassionate, amiable, and engendering hope and pride in the younger generation.
