Paradise Valley community college is filled with opportunity. The professors genuinely care about each individual's success. There are various courses to choose from and a very diverse array of students to mingle with. For me, the whole "college thing" seemed like a little too much for me straight out of high school, but PVCC made me feel right at home because of the endless support from faculty and peers. I would recommend this school to any, and every body!
It’s a great school to go to. You’ve got a great list of options to choose from. When I first started I was worried that starting college at Pvcc would be an issue. Thankfully, there is a lot of support. The people are nice, the professors are always have a way to fit somewhere, and there are always many Things that one can do. The variety of clubs to join are nice. People get along just well. You also have the option to choose your school hours well and there is great advisors/counselors to speak with. For anyone interested in going to pvcc it’s a good school. There will always be something for you to do and you will have a good time in school.
I loved going to PVCC! As a concurrently enrolled student, I started there when I was 14 years old. They were always very accommodating to me and they always helped me find the resources I need to be successful. The professors there really do care about the students. They always provide office hours and are willing to set up meetings with you for your success. I would recommend this for anyone who does not want the full "live on-campus" college experience.
