“From the very beginning, my experience has not only met my expectations but exceeded them in almost every way. I have never felt so at home while in an academic environment. The instructors go above and beyond to make me feel welcomed and appreciated, and they actually care about my education as much as I do. Furthermore, the staff is extremely patient and kind in every situation that may arise, as well as very efficient in getting any problems solved in a very reasonable manner. Southwest Tech is an amazing school that I strongly recommend to all who are willing to give it a try!”
