University of New Mexico - Valencia County Reviews

The staff has very helpful! Due to the size of the campus, the classes are small enough to get individual help. A drawback of the size of the campus is the amount of students they allow in certain degree programs (I.e. Registered nursing is only 16 students). All the degree sheets are very clear about what path is needed to obtain a certain degree or certificate. The campus is located in a rural area so reliable transportation is a must as there are little to no public transportation options.
Review University of New Mexico - Valencia County
My experience at UNM VC has been life changing. I first started at a 4 year college and it was just too much. Transferring to UNM VC I have excelled in my academic performance drastically. There is help offered all throughout the school and I couldn't be any happier about switching.
This was my first year doing online work. It was very convenent, and easy to use. It teaches you responsibility, and you have to learn to manage your time with online work. The peer-to-peer interaction was great if you do not understand something you can ask a peer to explain before you ask the professor. The professor are only an email away. Do not be affarid to email them for any sort of question you have. The amount of work is very light in some classes you just have to stay on top of due dates.
