Best community college ever! Saved a lot of money and most professors are sweethearts. I loved classes in person prior to COVID, after COVID I stuck with online courses. Alexandria Campus has lot of spots you can study other than the library. Extremely diverse, loved having classes with different people all ages. Most professors genuinely care for the wellbeing of their students. Admin could do a lot better, wouldn't trust advisors too much. Do your own research on what classes you need to graduate NOVA/ transfer to a 4 year.
The Annandale NOVA campus has treated me well during my first year. The professors I've learned from are great at their fields and are engaging during lectures. The campus and student life are easy to find and enjoyable to spend time on/with. The cafe and bookstore are readily available and the staff is always friendly! NOVA pushes a newsletter and constantly updates social media to have students aware of events and updates which is great to have. From my experience, the food served is underwhelming for the price, but the student life in the cafeteria and lounge always make for a better experience.
Northern Virginia Community College offers Associate Programs at Virginia State. Its affordability and rank in Community Colleges in the United States are what I liked best about it.
It has transfer programs to World-Class Universities like George Mason University through ADVANCE transfer pathways. Its virtual support system is highly efficient and really helpful. The website is organized for the students' ease of access. The faculty and staff members at NVCC are well-renown for facilitating academic success in each student.
I liked their approach to building an inclusive space for all students. I have thoroughly enjoyed my interactions with NVCC so far!
