Major: Business - Management and Administration (This Major's Salary over time)
I graduated from TCC with two degrees in Social Science and Business Administration. The school is pretty good in preparing you to move on to upper-class schools. I am currently at ODU and besides an I.T. class that TCC did not offer, I am taking all junior and senior level classes. The educational portion of the school is quite flexible and professors are, on the main part, pretty good. There ARE a# that teach there, so BEWARE. Now the bad. If you're an "older" student, and do not live with your parents. Do NOT rely on your student aid at the beginning of the semester for room, board, childcare(which are expenses compliant with student aid) and the like. You will end up starving, if you don't have a job. The Financial Aid Office is FULL of incompetents. EXAMPLE: "Are you a U.S. citizen?" in a Spanish accent. One more thing. Don't expect your diploma in the time they tell you either. "Diplomas will be mailed 4 to 6 weeks after your conferral date." Wrong.
Although the professors are good at TCC, communication with the administration is relegated to vague dialogue and indecipherable references on their website. Get in, get your work done and get out.
