REVIEWS

Read What Students Are Saying
It's a junior college, don't expect state of the art, on the cutting edge of technology, but do expect to learn the basics. You've got to start somewhere and fore getting your GE's out of the way there's not better option. Much more culture and age perspectives brought into discussions.
Jonathan from Fairfield, CA
Napa Valley College is an excellent place to further your education after high school because the teachers are truly passionate about the subjects they teach which leads to a better education for the students. However it is a community college so the quality of your education is not comparable to the education you would receive attending a four year university, but Napa Valley College provides students with a solid general education foundation for transferring into a university.
