Virginia Western Community College Reviews
Rating 3.71 out of 5 507 reviews
Virginia Western Community College provided me with all the tools necessary to navigate my own way through college. With Western's financial aid programs, I was able to support myself throughout my Associate's degree. Western's support services are also incredibly helpful and fast. I hardly had to wait more than two hours to receive help when needed. The professors are super supportive and quick to respond. This is very unlike larger colleges where finding assistance is rather difficult and attempting to talk to your professor is nearly impossible (especially in online classes). There are so many great aspects about Western -- the campus, effort put into student life, on-campus amenities, course flexibility, affordability, support -- I would suggest them to anyone entering college. I am so happy with VWCC, I would complete my Bachelor's degree with them if I could!
Awesome college experience. Very generous with financial aid, and for the most part the professors were great! With the odd one or two who should probably not be teaching, those were far and few between however.
I had a great experience at Virginia western. The staff was super helpful with signing me up for my classes and keeping me on the right track to graduate. The professors were helpful and always helped me succeed in my classes. I felt that they thoroughly prepared me for my continuing education!
