REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingVGCC Is a great school! The teachers are passionate of their jobs and are willing to help you succeed in your classes and future. I love this community college!
Amanda from Warrenton, NC
Of course I am learning a lot. It's a college, you have to be responsible for you classes and your studies. You're going to learn much if you study and do what the teacher say do.
Joshua from Kittrell, NC
People may think that a community college is easier but the truth is that any college you go to is going to be much harder than high school. Don't underestimate Vance Granville just because it only lasts two years.The truth is that a lot of it is harder because classes are smaller so teachers expect a lot more from you.
