    So first things first?…read more What exactly is The UNT New College at Frisco? Think of it as a school where all the big businesses in the area got together, told UNT what kind of things they'd love to see in graduating college kids, and then UNT made programs tailoring to that. Bam. You've got the Frisco campus. No, it's not just a business school, although a heavy focus of the curriculum is put on accounting, finance, things like writing press releases, fund raising, public relations, etc. All sorts of things are taught there that corporations have a huge desire to see more focus on. Another key thing about the Frisco location is that it is predominantly all night classes, so it's tailor made for those already in the work force, maybe those wanting to get a different degree or even further an existing degree. You can still come here and do some basics (I took chemistry and a psychology course here) but they are typically afternoon to evening courses. Lots of the commuter students at the main Denton campus like the Frisco campus because parking is free and PARKING IS FREE. Yeah. It's worth putting twice. Plus they are super freaking friendly here. They always great you with a smile when you walk in, they give you free swag all over the place and I swear...It's like they remember you paid them to go there or something. Amazing. They cater food in all the time for all students and you can rent a laptop, use a printer, get scantrons, all free. Instructors are fantastic. I hope they offer more daytime options for core classes. It's a great facility.

    From the owner: Education Designed for Working Adults…read more Amberton University was established more than 40 years ago with the sole purpose of providing quality education to working adults. Our programs and approaches are founded on Christian principles, and have been designed specifically to cater to the needs and lifestyle of the mature student. Specializing in business, counseling and human resources, Amberton provides a variety of relevant Bachelor's and Master's degrees as well as specialization programs for those individuals seeking to enhance professional skills and marketability in the workforce. With four sessions per year and courses offered through both the classroom (on evenings and weekends) and online, Amberton is able to provide programs that are both flexible and convenient. In addition, Amberton realizes that education also needs to be affordable. So their low tuition and pay-as-you-go fee structure allows students to earn their degree debt-free. Amberton is currently enrolling students for the Fall Session at both their Garland and Frisco campuses.

After graduating, I secured a new grad position, but unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances, I couldn't continue in that role. As many know, leaving a new grad position can make finding another job very challenging. Celeste was incredibly supportive during that difficult time. She not only helped me navigate the job search process, but also guided me on how to improve my interview skills and build my confidence. With her help, I was able to secure 4 interviews and ultimately land a new position with better pay than my previous role. I'm truly grateful for her dedication and support she made a real difference in my career journey. Thank you, Celeste

    West coast Dallas campus has been more than a disappointment. My complaint is more with the…read moreprofessors who don't encourage students enough and quickly tell students to DROP classes instead of working more with them. Professors who don't even make PowerPoints and just tell us to read the book, tests who aren't even made by them and get mad when the class doesn't do well. A lot of students feel they're just being money hungry encouraging failure so they can get more money. That not the west coast I was told before applying. This school has potential, but the way it is currently, I recommend people interested in nursing to look somewhere else.

    I attended the Preston Ridge Campus, Spring Creek Campus, and lived at the on campus apartments…read morenamed Century Court across from Spring Creek several years ago and it was a complete nightmare. The pathetic instruction, lousy customer service, and micro-aggressions left a very bad mark on me. The classes are inexpensive but I was not impressed by the instructors' imperious and abrasive attitudes and their unfairly strict grading systems. Music Appreciation, Biology, English, Intro to Psychology, Philosophy, Economics, and other intro courses were pedantically taught like upper-level doctorate courses which was painfully grueling and unfair. Some of the questionable instructors couldn't even speak comprehensible English. Generally the lectures and homework assignments were irrelevant or unproductively tedious. The hypocrisy is outrageous. The personal and career counseling services were horrible and worthless as well. The personal and career counselors spoke in riddles, made up excuses for everything, had irritable mood swings, and confused me the entire time. What are they paid to do exactly? The Dean of Students Office was always very unhelpful and sanctimonious. The Spring Creek Campus in Plano, Texas is the worst. Malicious administrators are quick to call the police and prosecute students through the Collin County kangaroo court system for small pranks yet hypocritical counselors, instructors, and administrators freely antagonize students to create an atmosphere of frenzied humiliation. I feel that Collin College is an enormous leech on the tax payers of Collin County.
