    I have enjoyed being a student at Halifax Community College so far. It is good that I have lived in Roanoke Rapids all my life and to be able to attend college only ten minutes from my house, I am truly going to miss the drive next fall! Halifax Community College has great programs for anyone who is in need of a degree!

    Campus Safety

    Campus security is ever-present and very visible.

    Clubs and Activities

    There is a variety of clubs and organizations.

    Great for these types of students

    Those who are looking to acquire a trade skill, an associate's degree or prepare for transfer to a 4-year university. It is affordable and the location is great!

    Bang for the buck

    A community college is the way to go if you are looking to save money the first 2 years before transferring to a 4-year university. Great education at a fraction of the cost!

    What to do for fun

    Even though it is a community college, there are always activities going on for students and the public.

    Food and Dining

    There is a snack bar...no cafeteria as there is no on-campus residency.

    Dorm Life

    There are no dorms, as it is a community college.

    Academic Rigor

    The classes are small in size, which allows for more one-on-one contact with instructors. I enjoyed all my classes!

    Tips for prospective students

    Take advantage of all the community college has to offer. By registering with Student Support Services I was able to receive help (as a future transfer student) and also earned extra money as a tutor!

    In three sentences

    The instructors are hands-on and very helpful. Student Support Services staff is a godsend! HCC is very affordable and allows the student to acquire an Associates degree or acquire a great foundation as a transfer student!
