Blinn College expands its classroom reach to Waller County

Blinn College is expanding its footprint to a new location in Waller this fall beginning Oct. 23 at W.C. Schultz Junior High School at 20950 Field Store Road, Waller.

At this new site, Blinn will offer transferable academic core courses, providing students with an affordable pathway to earn their college degree at a four-year university, according to a Sept. 20 news release.

In their own words

“We are excited to bring the educational excellence that has defined Blinn College to this vibrant region,” Chancellor Mary Hensley said in the release. “We look forward to bringing the same exceptional instruction, innovation and commitment to student success that has made Blinn the state’s academic transfer rate leader.”

The details

Blinn will begin by offering academic core courses during the fall second eight-week term, including the following:

• English
• Government
• History
• Math
• Philosophy
• Speech

Students attending Blinn’s Waller location will have access to online academic resources, including tutoring and library services.
