Different students. Different institutions. Same old story. And while both Hurtado and Hernandez would eventually find a happier existence at South Texas College, it\u2019s safe to say they left their for-profit experience with a few tales to tell.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI got my MOS certification but was never able to get my certificate paper because I was left in debt,\u201d says Hurtado, who switched to South Texas College after the vexing for-profit college experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

A few semesters earlier, Hernandez had made the same choice. Initially, the health care program she chose at her proprietary school seemed fast \u2026 it seemed focused. Little did she know, at the time, that the non-transferable credits would lead her directly into an academic brick wall.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhile a proprietary school can be fast and quick, it will not help you if you wanted to continue your education,\u201d says Hernandez. \u201cAlways think about your future and how far you can go.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

It would take a polar-opposite experience at South Texas College to regain trust in the higher education system. And indeed, the moment they set foot in class, both Hurtado and Hernandez knew something was different. Suddenly, between the low-anxiety atmosphere and compassionate guidance of STC faculty and staff, they began to feel less like customers and more like part of a community.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI feel as if I learned way better at my community college,\u201d says Hernandez, who graduated from STC in 2020 after making the switch and is considering returning to the College to pursue a bachelor\u2019s degree. \u201cThe biggest difference for me was that [STC] was way more organized and structured.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

To hear South Texas College leadership tell it, though, the biggest difference between for-profit and community college is less about structure, and more about the mission statement \u2013 in other words, the reason for each institution to exist.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe focus on getting students what they need to be successful in their educational and career journey,\u201d says Sara Lozano, Dean of Business, Public Safety and Technology at STC.\u00a0\u201cMost of our programs offer small classes with individualized attention and really allow students to become part of the local community.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

And while cost and convenience are the attributes most often touted by public, 2-year colleges, Lozano believes that STC affords students a deeper experience through connections and resources not found anywhere else. With advantages like decades-deep workforce partnerships and access to public funding to improve facilities and curricula, South Texas College isn\u2019t just the wallet-savvy option \u2026 it\u2019s the best higher education choice all-around<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cSouth Texas College is truly a college for the community,\u201d says the dean. \u201cI am so fortunate to be able to work for \u2018the good guys.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Advantage #1: Opportunity<\/span><\/h3>\n

Everyone\u2019s educational journey is different,\u201d according to Lozano, which is why it\u2019s so important for a student to feel like they have options to explore. Community colleges are known for providing a broad spectrum of opportunities, and with 127 degree and certificate programs, covering everything from basic skills to bachelor\u2019s degrees, South Texas College is no exception.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

With cutting-edge amenities like FESTO robots and the 198-seat Cooper Center for performing arts, career education students are sometimes surprised to find facilities that match STC\u2019s industry-expert faculty step-for-step. Meanwhile, university-bound students have access to a network of nearly 50 connected institutions, all accepting South Texas College credit for transfer.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Whether honing salary-boosting skills like Hurtado, or moving up the higher education ladder like Hernandez, STC represents freedom of choice.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy advice would be to look at \u2026 long-term goals and not just something quick,\u201d says Hernandez.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Advantage #2: Agility<\/span><\/h3>\n

Even before the pandemic, communities counted on 2-year colleges to provide innovative solutions to regional problems. So it was no surprise that, when the health crisis began forcing higher education off campus, it was community colleges that had the built-in flexibility to pivot online.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

In STC\u2019s case, adapting meant mounting a Herculean effort to re-imagine the college classroom<\/a>while maintaining all of the advantages of a connected campus community. Where remote instruction was impossible, STC innovated distancing and sanitation strategies<\/a>to keep its students on course for a debt-free outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Lozano, the unique agility of a community college tends to extend to students themselves. Through articulation agreements, partnerships, and workforce connections, institutions like STC can afford students a more flexible future than a \u201cone-trick\u201d trade school.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSouth Texas College is an accredited institution [so] students can also take classes and continue their education at other institutions \u2026 with the majority if not all of their classes transferring,\u201d says the dean. \u201c[That] is not always the case for proprietary schools.\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Advantage #3: Connectedness<\/span><\/h3>\n

It sounds clich\u00e9, but community colleges care<\/em>. They\u2019re responsible to the communities that support them, not beholden to investors with nothing but the bottom line in mind. Meanwhile, employers and families rely just as heavily on the career pipelines speeded by community colleges. The result is a time-tempered codependency between 2-year colleges and the communities they serve.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Lozano, who believes a community college\u2019s advantage is in its \u201cindividualized attention,\u201d the best part is the built-in opportunities that the partnership continues to provide.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are able to expose students to projects and experiences that include volunteer opportunities, skills training, and community service,\u201d says the dean.<\/span><\/p>\n

Advantage #4: Credibility<\/span><\/h3>\n

With tradition comes trust. Community colleges build their reputations not on quarterly profit statements but on persistent success in facilitating positive outcomes and uplifting families. South Texas College, while younger than many public colleges, has demonstrated its commitment to the long haul in 28 years of consistent, transparent service to the Rio Grande Valley.<\/span><\/p>\n

For local hiring managers, like 5×5 Brewing Company\u2019s George Rice, that longevity translates to ongoing confidence in new hires and belief in the programs that helped them develop. \u201cSTC is mindful of this stuff,\u201d assures the Mission entrepreneur, who says his first call is always to the College when looking for qualified employees.<\/span><\/p>\n

Advantage #5: Cost!<\/span><\/h3>\n

We\u2019ve left \u201clow cost\u201d for last on this list because there\u2019s really no comparison. According to College Board<\/em>, community college students pay an average of $3,264 annually, while for-profit institutions charge $15,130 \u2013 nearly five times*\u00a0<\/em>as much.<\/span><\/p>\n

Likewise, tuition at South Texas College amounts to just a fraction of a for-profit education. And thanks to transferable credits accepted by Texas A&M, Baylor, Arizona State, and beyond, students don\u2019t even need to stay<\/em>to make STC a great value.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCost is a big factor,\u201d Hernandez observes. \u201cSTC is affordable and offers full financial aid, while a proprietary is always almost double or triple cost-wise with very little financial help.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
