Freshman: I decided to choose Blue Ridge Community College, specifically as a pre-transfer school so that I may transfer into a four year after obtaining my associate's degree. As a high school senior, I greatly appreciated the ability to take online college courses while working full time, attending high school, and in the pursuit of my degree. Nearly all of my professors were incredibly passionate, diligent, and were genuinely dedicated to both teaching and helping their students succeed in their professional future. Also during my time there, due to an anonymous and generous sponsor that allowed for all of the students to attend tuition free for nearly two years! I have been very impressed with Blue Ridge Community College in Flat Rock North Carolina, and will continue finishing out my associate's degree after high school.... Read 129 reviews

Other: I’m currently in their first ever ADN program at McDowell Technical Community College. I really feel that they strive to help us understand the material that’s being taught to us and don’t just want us to memorize it for a test. I feel like by the time I graduate I will have the proper education to be the best nurse I can be. The teachers are always free to listen to any suggestions/ concerns students are having. Of course there are difficulties present however I feel they are pretty minor. The biggest issue seem to be communication between faculty (instructors, advisors, and admissions office), which will most likely resolve as like previously mentioned this is a new program. I would recommend McDowell Technical Community College to others looking to advance their education.... Read 50 reviews

Sophomore: I really enjoyed how hands-on the Haywood Wildlife Management program is. We got to experience a variety of field opportunities provided by the Natural Resources agencies we volunteered with. We saw many possible job fields and met many potential employers. We furthered our skills as fishermen, hunters, trappers and overall outdoorspeople while thriving in an academic setting. Instead of being seen as students, we were seen as wildlife professionals. I did not like how seemingly isolated our program was from the others on campus. The school focused on the Nursing program while Wildlife was the prevailing of the two. The Nursing program at HCC received more advertising. The security guards were more of a joke than a protecting force. They drove around all day and rarely did anything but yell at students for driving through a gravel lot to get to our practice shed for timbersports.... Read 129 reviews

Freshman: My advisors have been so helpful in my registration and enrollment process, and I feel supported in a process that can be overwhelming. After years of being on-the-fence about what was the right decision as far as continuing my education, seeing the various programs and opportunities offered by Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College gave me confidence that this was the place to achieve my goals. Their trainings in New Student Orientation and easy-to-navigate Student Self-Service portal have started my college journey off on the right foot, and the communication between staff and students is always quick and informative, even going so far as to schedule appointments via Zoom to maintain their focus on public safety and health. Of the 25,000 students that attend this college, I am more than grateful to be one of them.... Read 323 reviews
