I have learned so much from SVC. Its professors are kind and the campus is beautiful. This small school has done so much in my life, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to obtain a 2-year degree! I have been working towards an AA in Biology, and the professors have done so much to make sure we are prepared for when we transfer!

Grace - 02/25/2020

The school has great support for students and many professors are passionate about their teaching which truly does help encourage the students to further learn and challenge themselves in their education. There is usually always a counselor available to assist.

aubrie - 01/16/2020

My time at Skagit Valley College really set the ground work for my pursuit of education. Professors were very knowledgeable, passionate, and eager to help. The Whidbey Island campus that I attended was well maintained, with great staff. There were many student programs and facilities available. This college was an excellent junior college and starting point for my post-secondary education.

Jasmine - 08/16/2019

It's a nice school for a community college. It's a good size and the people there are nice. They are helpful and it's close to home. Very good college. You can get all the help you need just by asking and you can make friends easily. It's a very diverse community and the school is big but not too big.
