Tyler Junior College is a great school. What I like most is, there is always some type of exciting event taking place. One of my most memorable experiences at TJC was about a year ago. There was a TCJ cook off and many people attended. I was worried about how the security would be, however, I should not of been. I saw all the campus safety police, and I immediately was able to let me guards down and have a great time as everyone else did. There were many different organizations there recruiting more apaches to jump on board, and the food was awesome.

I like tjc because u can transfer your classes easily without any difficulty. Whatsoever, its located in the tyler so you can enjoy the city along with your classes. Most faculties are friendly and willing to help you with classes. They have dormitories on campus so its easy to commute if you don't drive.
