Great, quiet community out of the way from commotion. Very small-town feeling. Lots of greenery around the place

Being in an internship with local businesses is part of the curriculum, so you know what you're getting into and have a greater chance at a job after you finish college. On top of that, they only make you take the core classes that you need, so the more prepared you come, the more you can focus on your career path.

3 stars,but really should be No rating, as they don't have any.

One of the cheapest places in the state.

Hands on thinkers, loves to get their hands dirty, passionate about working in the trades

As far as I saw, there wasn't anything that hinted at gang activity or robberies.

Small campus, easy to get around, and located at the edge of Bellingham city. Small class sizes, and help from the instructor. Friendly and helpful administration staff.

Great hand on education, the instructors are professionals from their respective fields. Most of them know what the industry needs. So spend time talking to them when you can.
Use a planner, they are available here and will help you handle your classes and assignments professionally.

Solid. The employers in the area help design courses by saying what they need on the job site. So you come away with some useful skills.

Who enjoy small campus' and disabled students who need accomodations and accessibility.

Very good.

This school has a great layout and easy access.
RN program is the best.
Paper work here is easy, the staff is wonderful.

Take a day and go talk to the advisers, they are nice and you can walk in and only wait a few min.

The teachers are great, and are able to teach and have students learn.

no dorm

Great salad bar

Love to sit in lounge areas and study with others i dont know.

The money i pay is well worth the classes, many are hybrid and are easier for me to attend.

Love the sunshine class times out of class.

just out of school, older adults will all feel welcome here

as many as other schools

Here also

wonderful campus and i have never felt strange as i am from a small town.

September of 2009 I lost my job of 19 years at Philips Ultrasound in a large scale reduction in force. I researched my options carefully and found Bellingham Technical College to be well aligned with local industry. In just my first two quarters I have learned so much about my new field of industrial processes, especially petroleum refining and electric power generation.

I am enjoying my time at BTC. I am currently serving on the PTEC safety committee, enjoy active membership in Phi Theta Kappa honor society and attend student body and effective communications meetings regularly. There is no gym or athletic program at this time (as of Spring 2010).

Tuition and books are expensive, but relative to other community colleges, BTC is not out of line. Prices may vary widely between different classes and programs, but my full time schedule runs roughly $1300 per quarter for tuition and $310 per quarter for books.

Study up before taking the Accuplacer entrance exam. Maybe visit math.com or something like it. This will save you pre-req time and money.

Great place for students who would like to learn practical, real world skills so that they can get back to work.
