This is a awesome school and I love it. If you really want a good education this is the place to be. Classes are interactive and the professors want you to be sucessful. You are paying $$ for your future so if you want a good academic experiance -you will get it here. There are some partys but this is not a "party school" because its small. Pick a school for the right reason-school, not because of the size of the party. And I do have fun here with my friends its just not out of control.

Attending VWC was the best decision I've ever made. It was the right school for me. If you're looking for a school where you can get involved in activities and athletics, make life-long friends, and gain a stellar education, VWC is the place for you. However, you have to want to be part of a small school community and atmosphere. Getting lost in the crowd is not an option at VWC. I wish I never had to leave!

While this school exhibits characteristics of a well run college, it severally lacks a social outlet for students. Unless you are here for athletics; you will not fully enjoy your college experience. The professors are well educated and do a good job, but their performance does not justify a $27,000 tuition with room and board. Greek life is relatively non-existent, and there are no parties on campus of any serious size. While college should be primarily academics, I believe that the social aspect of being away from home must not be neglected. I think that most students here agree with that statement, which is most likely the reason for the high attrition rates due to transfers. If you care little about having a social life in college this is the school for you. However, if you are looking for a well rounded college life choose elsewhere.
Perceived Campus Safety: A+, Social Life: F

The college workload at VWC was heavier than I have faced in my field. There are occasions when deadlines approach and I know that I can complete projects, because I have faced similar or greater workload in college.

One difference is that in school, 90% accuracy or better on an assignment or test was good enough for an A (the measure of success). In the business world nothing less than 100% accuracy and effort will equal success. Because customers can go other places and bosses can hire other people who will meet their measure of success.
