I love Westmoreland County Community College! It welcomed me at the age of 15 and helped me get on my path to my 4-year school. The faculty are AMAZING, the campus is gorgeous, and the education is absolutely top-notch. I attended WCCC for 2 years (to get an Associate’s degree), and I was never disappointed. I also ran cross country for those two years, and that was an absolutely incredible experience. The sports of WCCC are all very experienced, and they are coached by only the best instructors. I would recommend this school to anyone as a great start!
WCCC is in my opinion a great option. My experience there was an overall solid experience. The majority of the professors I had in my first year were amazing. It is an entirely different feel than high school because they actually care about you. The classrooms are normally only 15-30 people which helps you connect with other students and the teacher more. Furthermore, it is really cheap compared to other places. My yearly tuition cost was no more than 6000. The only bad experience I have from this place is being overwhelmed from working at the same time. So if you do plan on working while taking classes, take a little less classes, trust me it is worth having one extra semester. In conclusion, WCCC is an amazing place to start out with college. It is nice to ease into college while still being with my parents to help me out when needed. It is also great for figuring out what you want to do because of the cheap classes. Overall I highly recommend this place.
I’m an older student who is attending college for the first time at 46 years old. I’m going into my final semester as a nursing student. I’ve learned so much, I’m still learning, but I feel like I’m being prepared for a career in nursing. My teachers have been so wonderful, they teach from experience and they get that I have a life and responsibilities outside of my studies. My program has a great support system, if you feel like you just are not getting the content, they go out of their way to help you, in person or zoom tutoring is always available to anyone for any reason. They listen, they care. It’s not just about learning with my teachers, they care about us as students and people. It’s truly a great experience. And for my program, I’m getting just as much knowledge and clinical experience as the major school’s at a fraction of the cost. The counseling staff goes above and beyond to make sure their students have what they need. Great experience.
