Review of Northern Virginia Community College

from CENTREVILLE, VA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

This school offers a lot more than just your pre-requisite classes. You'd be surprised if I told you this school has a lot to offer. Classes for the student that wants to own a major business to classes for the student who wants to become a med student. Here they offer you classes about how to handle college and also how to pick a major that is right for you, these classes are for those students who have had a hard time figuring out what they want to do when the get older.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There are many campuses that are apart of NVCC. You can pick which ever one that is located near you and all of them are beautiful. There are a lot of new faces to meet and also a really relaxing area with a cafeteria, a park, and it really looks like a college. It isn't high school all over again. It's a great experience being here. The professors are great and really helpful as well as the counselors! Some of the professors from GMU come to NVCC to teach as well, so think about it, you're basically getting the same education!

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

The best part about NVCC is the price. You really don't pay a lot for what you get. You save money while you take the classes that you need to transfer over to whatever college you plan to go to and continue there where you had left off!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Tips for new students: Be ready to have the time of your life! Carry a map of the campus with you because the campus is pretty big, you might get lost. It's okay to ask for help!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

NVCC is great for the student who would like to save money and earn the same education at a 4-year college. NVCC is great for anybody.
