The advising center is a literal joke. I called to see if I could make an appointment to see an advisor and was told I didn’t need an appointment and I couldn’t come in at any time. I show up to enroll for spring 2025 as a new student and was told that they couldn’t find my application. I told them I tried to submit an application multiple times through ApplyTexas and when it was time for me to choose a school lone star kingwood wasn’t on the list (which is why I wanted to see an advisor to get help). I was then told to login to ApplyTexas on one of their computers so they could assist me and I stood at a computer for 30+ minutes and no one ever came. It was like I didn’t even exist. The whole point of me attempting to schedule an appointment was because I only had so much time to get this done and it was completely wasted. Before I left I stopped to complain to the lady at the front desk because I was so frustrated and she asked me what I needed help with, but at that point I didn’t have the patience or time to wait any longer so I told her that it was fine and not to worry about it. She then said bye/happy holidays in the most condescending and sarcastic way possible and I honestly feel like I dodged a bullet by not even enrolling.

I don’t know why is this place being rated this low. Yes, a couple staff members have been rude or uninterested in helping (mostly younger age staff) but the majority of the time people will go the extra mile to help and they seem glad to do so. This college is a thousand times better than the most prestigious university from my own country. About textbooks, I know it’s tough to buy brand new texts, but teachers normally do not care if you are getting copies or a PDF from reddit or something. Restrooms are clean and actually have toilet paper, unlike some places at commie LATAM. They even have gender neutral restrooms! And there is a very diverse student population, which I appreciate as an Hispanic non-immigrant. Im giving 5 stars because this is waaaay better than anything I could ever achieve back in my country. Y’all need to practice gratitude for the infrastructure you guys have in tour country. Try to have a normal week of classes in a public university at LATAM 😹

I graduated from this college many moons ago and it was a decent college back then. So now I have my son going, he has Aspergers Syndrome and struggles with socializing and communication. The testing department was amazing and very helpful. But once we tried getting him accommodations that's when the trouble started. It has taken over a year to finally get those going! It takes weeks to hear back! The academic advisors are good but the business and financial aid reminds me of going to the post office! He has had one good teacher. One who bothered to call his advisor who called me and has genuinely helped. The welding teacher was rude, disrespectful and failed many times to communicate! He missed a whole week of work then tells my son the wrong day for the final! He failed my son and my son became very depressed. He quit school, quit life. He's been denied financial aid and when I appealed it they asked me how does high functioning autism and adhd affect learning? How in the world is someone in education and does not know this? My son finally got into a therapist and psychologist so he's finally getting his accommodations but I turned in another appeal for financial aid at Kingwood College and when I called a month later, THEY'VE LOST THE APPEAL! I'm about ready to report this violation of ADA Law and place him in a better community college because he deserves better!
