    Excellent bang for your buck! The cost per semester hour is very reasonable. I spent 2 years at CVCC and spent about $4,500. Around $2,250 per year which is not bad at all considering you can transfer will all your basics or with an associates in science or art.

    I really do like the school. It has a great nursing course there, which is something I am interested in. For everything that I have seen so far, I would recommend anyone come to this school. They have anything any other college would have, and you don't have to pay an arm and a leg to take a course there. Also you get discounts at YMCA and other clubs and discounts at local stores.
