Am learning a lot
I am learning a lot at VVC. I just finished my second semester and it's easy to see that the instructors really do want their students to succeed. I have personally utilized the writing and math labs. Both have tutors to help you when you are not in class.
Am enjoying being here
I enjoy going to school at VVC. The campus is beautiful. It is a great experience walking to class. The campus surrounds a lake which is inhabited by many ducks, geese, birds and other wildlife. It is a wonderful stress reliever to be able to sit and feed the ducks between classes. I have found the staff at VVC to be very friendly and helpful whenever I needed assistance.
Bang for the buck
VVC has many different opportunities for low income homes. The price per unit is a bit high for non residence of California or homes that do not meet low income eligibility. I currently have the BOGG waiver and it saves me hundreds every semester.
Tips for prospective students
The amount you learn is directly connected with the amount of effort you are willing to make. Don't start anything you don't intend to finish. Most importantly, stay focused!
Great for these types of students
Journalism, Fine Arts, Liberal Arts and any student with ambition and drive!

Am learning a lot
The school offers a wide variety of courses for just about any major. I am currently completing 2 years of gen ed, and VVC has only made it easy for me. Learning here for me is rather easy.
Am enjoying being here
It's close to home, and quite a lot of the people from my Highschool are also attending. I enjoy the classes, the teachers are great, and I am having a great time.
Bang for the buck
compared to the last school I was at, a tech school, I am in shock at how cheap the classes are. 300 dollars for 4 classes, it's ridiculous. The quality of the education is great, so yes, it is a great value.
Tips for prospective students
When registering for classes, be quick. The classes go on a first come, first serve basis, and the class you need will surely be in hot demand. Know what your going to pick long before you pick it.
Great for these types of students
If your in the High Desert, and your not looking to immediatly go to a 4 year, like UCSBD, then VVC is the place to go. it is close, the classes are cheap, and the faculty is friendly. It also sure beats driving to Upland every other day.

Victor Valley College wants the same thing you do... quality education. Be serious in entering college and always aim high because they have passionate educators that really want you to be successful both in your studies and in your career so be ready to be challenge.
Academic Rigor
Victor Valley College is high on integrity, honesty and dignity. It can be difficult sometimes but it is so worth it. Getting an A cause you didn't cheat is more rewarding and you feel really accomplished ( a real booster). The college will expel you from any derogatory actions.
Food and Dining
There is a cafeteria in the campus. There are several fast food joints and sit down restaurant to choose from just around the vicinity of the college. Victor Valley Mall is a 10 minute drive from the college and several restaurant within and around the mall. Jess Ranch Plaza is a rock away from the college and offers a bunch of restaurants too.
What to do for fun
The Victor Valley Mall is a 10 minute drive from the college. There's three cinemas near the college. There's also several parks nearby. 24 Hour fitness Gym is next to one of the Cinemark in Jess Ranch Plaza which is a 2 minute drive from the college.
