I attended WPCC for both my high school diploma and Associates degree. WPCC faculty and staff are the best! They are always willing to help you whether it is in regards to Fasfa or even personal stuff. WPCC does care about its students and their education. As far as curriculum, the material is challenging at times but it’s all worth it!
Western Piedmont has honestly been my best schooling experience! Im a cosmetology student at the school and the instructor's are the kindest and most caring people. They truly care about our well being and I couldn't ask for a better environment to learn in. They always go the extra mile to ensure that each of us are learning and bettering ourselves.
I went with BMC and the teachers are wonderful! The classes are challenging but easy to manage. It is also fairly worth the cost! The vending machines are overpriced though.
