VHCC is awesome, super cheap and super easy to grasp. They have excellent facilities that proved to take care of my needs in every way, including a really good little hidden computer lab that I would go to each week and finish assignments without being bothered. Lit.

Virginia Highlands is a phenomenal place to study. Some of the professors are really caring and take time to individually contribute to each student. Lots of one to one interactions. Getting involved in clubs was a great experience for me too.

This is not a veteran friendly college. If you like your GI Bill certification screwed up every semester and being screwed out of housing allowance benefits because of crazy dynamic sessions this is the place for you.

If you're going into nursing, do not attend. Honestly, its not worth your time and effort. While I graduated, it was only due to all of the extra items I had to incorporate in to teach myself. The dean constantly changes the curriculum adding on assignments- making it humanly impossible to complete and get appropriate credit.
