My personality type and learning style weren't built for the environment of DCA, but it definitely could be great for someone else.

The University Model School approach is different... and requires a substantial commitment on the parents (co-teachers) in partnership with the school - but for our family, it has been worth the sacrifice. This is not a perfect school, but it is a good school and the faculty and staff love the students very much. Overall, we are pleased with the level of education (life and academics) DCA has provided for our kids.

It really is a "great" thing when you take a bunch of sensitive kids, and treat them like dirt because they don't have the social skills to fit in with whatever it is you consider "the norm". It's OK. I grew up, I moved on, and I got over it, but that doesn't mean I forgive you. It doesn't mean that you have any right to be forgiven, either.

The food was horrible. For two cheeseburgers, a pretzel and a large drink it was almost $40. The pretzel looked like it was microwaved and the breading was getting tough from it. Not fresh. Overly salted. Cheese wasn't even eaten for it either. Cheeseburgers did not taste good. We were better off with eating at Buccees. Waste of $40.

The staff were very friendly and helpful making sure that everyone was being helped. Before we started they gave us all a full run down of how to make the clay pots and what signs to look out for. The group we went with all had a great time and we all made some really nice planters, i look forward to attending more class for pottery but they also offer so much more from painting, sketching, stain glass, and more. I wish the pottery class had a whee spinning option or perhaps more intermediate/advanced classes that would allow us more options but overall it was a great experience.

My daughter is in the second semester of her freshman year. This past fall, she was majoring in…read moreChemistry. She had trouble with at least two of the professors. One was very derogatory toward females. Daughter had her male friend ask questions for her in class because she felt belittled. Same teacher failed to report grades all semester. He would not release them on request, either. Many of the students failed or made low grades because they could not get an average to work from. The chemistry guidance counselor was not helpful. He said that teacher is just like that. He refused to allow her access to register herself. He refused to allow her to chose her own classes. The Horizons professor did not accept students choices of study if it was something she didn't like. The Chemistry dept would not allow her to chose her own classes and told her she could not take more than allotted hours because she would have nothing to take in the future. She wants to go summers, but the dept refuses to take transfers from UNT. They have very few professors in the dept and the quality is lacking. They do not want the students getting the classes at other universities so they refuse to accept them. She was told Summer courses are difficult to get into and that she would NOT be allowed to get ahead...not sure why. The counselor tried multiple times to get her to change over to biochemistry. She did not want that. So, I don't know if they are trying to get rid of the regular chem program, or not. So, she changed majors and now TWU doesn't want to allow financial aid to pay for the courses saying it doesn't go toward her degree. But they do, per the new counselor who is very helpful. They are very disorganized and preventing my daughter from getting the education she needs. If they can't provide the courses for a degree program in an appropriate manner, they should shut it down. If they have a bad, female hating professor at a predominantly female university, then he should be gone. Isn't that the basis of predominantly female university, after all? Tenure should not matter in the case of discrimination. It is a nice, small campus and has a lot of potential if they straighten ot up. Also, the sophomores and upper classmen should have more than one choice for a dormitory that is new, more expensive yet still having maintenance and flooding issues. Extremely grateful for the new counselor in the new degree program. He was very helpful, kind, and actually guiding her. Thank you sir and I give you five stars. ***** Financial aid office could use a lot of improvements, nicer people and a better organization. Students shouldn't be getting their financial aid at the end of the semester for the previous semester. Multiple students have had this issue. I am disappointed that my daughter could not continue her journey in chemistry at TWU. Her plan was for a PhD. I hope this new program works and she continues to grow. She almost transferred to another university... Who wants to deal with all that as a first time college student? Do you want everyone to drop out? Get it together TWU!
