Im in the nursing program sand the requirements are accurate and I understand why they make it a competitive program. On MEC campus the students study all the time, that's all we do.

The classes are more flexible at NOVA due to the fact that most of the student body does work or cannot be present on campus. NOVA offers in class, online, or hybrid classes with chat room instruction and off campus classroom locations.

Many people believe that community college students do less homework, attend less time to class and fail most of the courses. NVCC Annadale Campus as well as other Higher Education Institutions has students that study at all levels, some people you would see them studying all the time, some others would study just on weekends and there are others that would just party the whole week. Most of the professors are friendly and approachable, they want to help their students and see them shine by themselves. English, Economic and History classes are very popular and are the first ones to get full.

Professor's definitely know your name, and there are some really great ones and some really awful ones. They're there to help you succeed and move on with your life.
