About Texas County Technical College

"The instructors at TCTC did everything they could to help me succeed and encouraged me along the way. Mrs. Hudson is amazing. I’ve been out and working for awhile now and I still think of her on a daily basis." -Brittany S.

Why TCTC?

We’re a small school with small class sizes, close to home, where everyone really does know your name. At some larger schools, you’re stuck in giant classrooms with an impersonal atmosphere and no help in sight, but at TCTC you’re a name, not just a number.

Help is always available and our staff and faculty bend over backward to help out with whatever you’ve got going on as we help you navigate the waters of a nursing program.

One of the advantages to our smaller class sizes is easier access to getting one-on-one help when needed. After all, the whole reason you’re spending all this time and money going back to school is to work towards graduating and preparing for your licensure exam.

Attending an accredited school or program can can also help you to get a job once you finish school. Employers want to see that you’ve graduated from an accredited program, and some won’t even hire graduates from an unaccredited school. Completing courses from an unaccredited school can mean having to redo coursework or program degree requirements in order to qualify for a job in your chosen field.
