Tidewater Community College

What tips can you share with prospective students?

When you first come to this campus, you may feel overwhelmed as it’s a whole new experience. I was also scared of the “what if” thoughts since I enrolled directly after finishing Highschool. As time went on, I began to realize it isn’t as scary as I thought. My advice is to not stress and trust in yourself that you’ll do great. As long as you have the determination, try your best and don’t procrastinate, you can achieve any goal in mind.

How would you describe the food and dining options?

I would say the food and dining options are mostly of good quality. While I’ve only had the food here a handful of times, only once was I not satisfied. The food is affordable and healthy; they also provide vending machines with more variety of snacks.

How has your college supported your career development and future goals?

As someone who is planning to transfer after two years, Tidewater community college has given me a steady foundation to work on to pave my way to success. The staff helped support my goals by ensuring I had proper aid, assisted in selecting courses, and made sure I fulfilled all requirements to graduate. The advisors were the biggest help if I had any questions. I’m graduating exactly on time and have no negative regards.
