Students who are thinking of attending Central Virginia Community College should meet with an academic advisor to see which courses would match up best with their desired degree. Advisors can also tell you about some of the guaranteed acceptance agreements that CVCC has with some of the 4-year universities around Virginia. Prospective students should also see if any of their courses could be taken as Open Education Resource classes. These classes have internet accessible text books that are free to students. Overall, CVCC attempts to make furthering your education as affordable as possible.

Don't overload yourself with credits, I'm in an early college program (its like dual enrollment on steroids) and I take 15 credits this semester. Don''t stress too much and you'll be fine~

Take advantage of all the workshops/seminars that are offered. Take advantage of all the social events that are held here. Do not make the mistake of treating a community college like it is a joke, because it is the gateway to the rest of your education.

CVCC is an affordable and convenient way to complete your Gen. Ed. requirements for any degree.

be ready to get the run around from advisors when your first get accepted. Also, the financial aid office is a joke.
