“Blinn is an affordable way to ease into college life rather than jumping right into a four-year university,” said Makenzie Menke, Blinn Class of 2021. “Blinn gives you an opportunity to build relationships with your professors rather than being in a huge class.”
Blinn has announced that all May Minimester and Summer courses will be offered online. Blinn offers a variety of resources for students taking online courses at www.blinn.edu/online, including an orientation course, tips for taking an online course, tutorials, frequently asked questions, and a live chat.
“I have enjoyed getting to know my professors,” said Jackie Andrade, Blinn Class of 2020. “At a big school you may be just a number, but here they really do care about helping you. I like that about Blinn.”
Prospective students can apply to Blinn via the ApplyTexas.org application. Once admitted, they can register for classes at https://my.blinn.edu. Blinn recommends that all students speak to an academic advisor prior to registering for classes. Students can chat online with a Blinn admissions specialist between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, at www.blinn.edu/admissions, and can call Enrollment Services at 979-830-4800.
Blinn’s academic transfer rate is the highest in the state, according to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, and Blinn has partnered with Texas A&M University to develop pioneering co-enrollment programs such as the Texas A&M-Blinn TEAM Program, the Texas A&M Engineering Academy at Blinn-Bryan, and the Texas A&M Engineering Academy at Blinn-Brenham.
As a member of the RELLIS Academic Alliance, Blinn offers courses at The Texas A&M University System’s RELLIS Campus that transfer seamlessly into the four-year bachelor’s degree programs offered by The Texas A&M University System regional universities also located onsite.

According to data from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board’s CollegeForAllTexans.com, out-of-district Blinn students taking 30 credit hours will save $4,514 (44%) in tuition and fees compared to in-state residents at the average Texas public university.
In addition to Blinn’s low tuition and fees, the Blinn Foundation offers more than 200 endowed scholarships available to incoming and returning students from a wide range of backgrounds, majors, and experiences.
