I attended BCC as an out of state student, hoping to establish residency while paying out of state tuition and living there for a year. Upon my first visit to register for classes, the snobby lady at the front desk who yells at people and treats them like garbage did not set the greatest first impression. She was not just having a bad day. She is like that all the time. The whole pick a number system is completely ridiculous. For this place to be called a college, that system is a disgrace. A 6-year-old could have come up with a better system. The advisors tell you to take all the wrong classes, and the placement exam is probably rigged to squeeze an extra buck out of you. How does someone who passed Pre-calc, Physics, and 4 years of English in a Northern Virginia high school with an "A" end up in remedial math and reading improvement where they teach you how to factor polynomials and read faster?

BCC is a joke. I don't understand why the administration staff has to be completely arrogant. Even the guy running the testing center has no regard for students! When I went in to take a scheduled exam, I had to wait for 20 minutes for him to get off the phone. There is a waiting area outside of his office, and while I was waiting there in plain sight for him to acknowledge me, and all he did was get up and said,

You need to wait outside, in the main lobby… I'll come and get you when I'm done.
I went out to the main lobby and the watched the bastard walk out of the testing center with his jacket on like he was going to lunch and never saw him again.

The teachers there present little/no challenge, except for the humanities teacher I had who didn't actually teach anything. He just stood up there and talked about random things completely unrelated to the materials needed to be covered in the course.

After having lived there for a year, and getting ready to register for my 3rd semester, I was still considered an out-of-state student because some bill was supposedly passed during the year that I was not notified about. I spoke with the Dean, just to be treated like a bigger piece of garbage, and finally had it. I wised up and moved back to Northern Virginia and attended a real community college.

If you are considering paying out-of-state tuition here, hold on to your money. Wait for a year… or wait… more than a year, and maybe, just maybe if you're lucky, you can get residency. Having the connections at the job that I did have, the Dean of Daytona Community College offered me to go there with in-state tuition because he said that I did indeed qualify, and that there was no bill or whatever kind of non-sense BCC was making up, however, I decided to go back to Northern Virginia anyway to actually challenge myself.
