Surry Community College Reviews

Though some of the teachers aren't the best, Surry Community College is certainly a terrific school to begin one's college career. The teachers are always willing to work with students to ensure they understand the material covered in the course. Tutors are available at all school hours, and are always free. I would definitely go to Surry if I had it to do over again. It has saved me money, and has also allowed me to have a general understanding of how a college course works.
Review Surry Community College
The student center has a great program that helps students get employed when coming close to graduation. I feel like employers may not hold Surry Community in high regards compared to a four-year school, but I feel like that is unfair. Employer's should look at a person's applicable skills compared to something someone has learned in a book.

It is a great school. Having been to a private college before attending Surry, you can see the difference. Surry Community College definitely feels a little like high school. You see different social cliques like the "sport" clique, the "nerdy" clique, etc.
