Walters State Community College — Local services in Morristown

Absolutely loved this place! I attended college there from when I graduated high school in 2004 until the second time I graduated there in 2009. I earned two degrees ( A.A.S. Office Administration-2007 and A.S. Criminal Justice-2009). I was a member of the SIFE team. Loved it! I flew to Atlanta GA and Dallas, TX where I was a speaker & presenter in competitions. I went on to ETSU and graduated with a B.S. in Criminal Justice 2012. I can honestly say the people at WSCC are wonderful and staff are exceptional. They truly care and want you to be successful. Some math professors would stay after class and tutor me because math wasn't my strong point. I graduated each time with honors, but I can say it wouldn't have happened without their dedication. I am forever thankful! I would probably have been a professional student there lol. I made long lasting friendships. I wouldn't change it for anything. If you're looking for that small town feeling or the feeling to belong somewhere, it can be...

This college seems to be rather scattered. My son is a stellar student and always has been. However, he’s now in the nursing program. It seems they want him to fail. He studies huge quantities of time and does all homework. Has talked to the professor about anatomy and physiology, and yet nothing changes. He has tested on things that they haven’t presented in the book or in class. This is a young man who graduated with honors. He was the head of the national honor Society for Spanish And a member of the national honor Society. Yet he just failed an A & P test. He has never failed a test in his academic career and I asked what was going on and he said what I just told you previously. I’m a registered nurse with a masters degree in teaching and I can tell you the way they teach is a violation of all nursing and teaching principles. I told him not to drop and we would see what happens… If he does fail, anatomy, and physiology, and should have to take it over again, he will not be attending...

I have finally had enough. After three children attending this campus, I have finally decided enough is enough. The level of incompetence has gotten worse throughout the years. Student advisors, financial aid department and also lumping in TN Promise; we have been charged so much money for fees or not received our money back from mistakes made by Walter States employees. This establishment is a complete money pit out to take your money, that's it. Our child was directed to take classes he or she did not need, drop classes due to getting schedule figured out by student advisor number 4 or 5 and campus refused refund due to class being dropped a day late, even though it was a mistake on their end. If this was an isolated incident, I would not be as upset as I am. However, this is not the case. This has been happening since 2012. Do better , Walters State Morristown. We work hard for our paychecks, and we don't have the extra income...
