In three sentences | This is a great Technical college! The professors are professional and helpful. I have especially benefitted from their knowledge and genuine concern. |
Tips for prospective students | Keep organized! It's helped me tremendously to follow a strict schedule for work, classes, and for homework. Make out a schedule for the week and write down everything you need to accomplish. It will help you greatly! |
Academic Rigor | The workload is just right. The classes are designed so that, if you need to, you could both work and go to school full-time. You will be able to get your schoolwork done and learn everything you need to so you will be a successful professional in the field. |
Dorm Life | There are no dorms at Gateway Technical College. |
Food and Dining | The food at Gateway is good. It's nice to be able to get a fresh cup of coffee in the morning before you start your classes. The hours of the cafe are also accommodating for class schedules. |
What to do for fun | When on campus, in between classes, you can go to the commons area where there are foosball tables, video games, and TVs set up to enjoy. If you prefer a quieter setting, there are great libraries and cafes to relax. |
Bang for the buck | Gateway Technical College is reasonably priced. I am able to pay for college while I attend so I don't have large loans waiting for me when I get out like I would if I went to a University. |
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus | We have a mascot yet we have no sports teams! |
Great for these types of students | Anyone who wants to receive an education and experience you can actually use. They focus on teaching you the knowledge and skills you need to exceed at whatever major you decide. |
Clubs and Activities | They have a radio club, an electronics club, international clubs, AITP, and several other clubs and activities for students to join and enjoy. |
Campus Safety | There are always campus security officers around for the comfort of the students. Although they are there, you will rarely if ever need their services since it is a very safe campus. |
