I appreciated that the majority of professors were very good and tried to help...However there was a couple of instructors who had absolutely NO BUSINESS teaching anymore...one fell asleep during presentations and the other was stuck in the eighties and had no clue what was going on in the world at all...

You have to stay on top of the financial aid department and always make sure your paperwork is not "lost"...Student Services were slow to respond to emails...I learned to call and just wait on hold.

to the dudes- if you cannot live without a girl in your life don't go here- the girls here are extremely scarce and you'll notice that after a month of being here most girls seem to be on top of the world and extremely egotistic). education is ok... annoying how your placement is based on sat scores but once you get past all that the quality is good.
to the ladies- obviously the odds are in your favor but about 70% of the guys will be playing hard to get bc they'll be playing halo day n night with their doors locked.
to all- the "college experience" is nonexistent here. frat parties (the biggest parties on campus) consist of pple standing around drinking punch. off campus there's... nothing, i guess. this life of the "city" is centered around walmart sadly enough. picture this; you walk out of your dorm at noon on an avg wednesday and you feel like the rapture has occured bc if youre lucky u may see 1 person off int the distance. sry to ruin anyone's image of this place but its so empty

LeTourneau was a mistake. Your lucky if you go through 4 years and receive a passing grade in all classes. I only know 6 people who didn't have to retake any courses. If your a genius with a 4.0 GPA, go for it--- if not, find another school. Social life was terrible, too small of a school, professors didn't give a rats ass. LeTourneau was a f@%!#%#*% mistake. Burn in hell LETU!

This school sucks you in through the admissions department. They do everything that they can to allow students to come their first year. After they have your first year's (or semester's) tuition, they do not care for you at all. The low admissions standards allow almost anyone to get in, but the rigorous coursework forces anyone out that cannot handle the load. Most of the people that I have talked with said that they would go elsewhere if they did not have such great friends here.

There are some really great professors that care about the students, but there are also some professors that do not care about the students at all.

Plan to fail at least one or two classes while here. Unless you are a genius student that studies all of the time, you will fail a class at this school. I only know 5 people that graduated without retaking a course. Some courses are taken by students 3 times before they receive a passing grade.

Unless you are in engineering, business, flight, or education, do not expect the school to serve your academic needs. If you are majoring in something besides those four subjects, I would advise you to go elsewhere...anywhere else.

Also, the male to female ratio is about 5.5:1, so there are a lot of lonely male technical types on campus that do not have the social skills to approach a lady. As they say ladies, "The odds are good, but the goods are odd."
