After Kevin did a great job discussing the class offerings here, the "Director of Admissions"…read moreruined all that by being very unprofessional upon my physical arrival to the school. There was no welcome or we're glad to have you here type of greeting, I was just told to stand in a certain place to have my temperature taken by this mindless automaton and then corralled like a horse into a back room. I decided to dare to "roam the halls" as it was put while waiting, and was castigated. You would think looking in other workspaces at a school would be encouraged to cross-market. What followed was a convoluted rant on C19 and CDC issues that was more bullying and self-aggrandizement than good customer service or public relations. Roaming around put me further from people, not closer, so this was merely a power move. I arrived early and had a chance to interact with some current students and I saw none of them cheerful and some seemed unhappy or even mildly scared. Very unusual. Here fear and subordination supercede education. Students, if someone is not professional and kind to you, run away. Never let anyone weaponize their own personality to make you feel bad. There are other schools and the student calls the shots because its their money. One more thing. As I walked out, the staffer at the window was not wearing a mask, and I was, so please spare the hypocrisy.

Disorganized. Poor Leadership. Would not recommend it. The facility is not kept clean nor upgraded…read more Poor excuse for a school

this schools professionalism and treatment towards veterans is absurd. bullshit attendance policies…read morecount negatively towards your grade even if you aren't registered for weekend classes. if you miss a thursday, your attendance will show you've been absent from class Friday Saturday Sunday AND Monday, they don't even care if you have hospital discharge paperwork (which I had and provided post surgery) to excuse an absence. highly considering dropping the program and taking my gi bill elsewhere after merely 5 weeks in their hvac program. strongly do not recommend especially to my fellow veterans.

Some of the instructors are fine. I am supposed to graduate next month and we have barely, and I…read moremean barely done anything to gain knowledge regarding blueprints. Want a job? Good luck. Miss an email about a partner company coming to test students for a job? Too bad. You're not getting to take a test for that company regardless of how well you can weld. I have applied for around 25-30 jobs even as low as $16-18 an hour and still no luck. Part of me wants to think it is the schools reputation, but it's not certain. Tuition is expensive and it is going up even more for new enrollments. They made sure to say never worry about employment through the beginning as if it was only a sales pitch. My overall feeling of this school as of today is simply that they want your money, and don't care about anything else. Failing this school is actually hard to do because they push students through so they can keep getting your money. If something else magically changes between now and next month, I will update this review.

I love TCC in Virginia Beach, even above the university of my undergrad. I've gone there for my…read morefirst Associate's degree in 2010 and am now currently going for a medical program. It has expanded over the last 15 years in ways that primarily support students and staff. It is clean, conducive for learning/studying, and I enjoy spending much of my time in the library and student center. In the event you must stay there all day, it has everything you need in recreation and food options on and off campus. The facilities are excellent and I truly would suggest TCC to young high school grads and people wanting to return to education.

I don't understand why the people, reporters, and djs are directly allowed to block my education…read moreand interfere with my education, but can still go to Yale while I'm only allowed to work at Costco after receiving multiple degrees and a diploma. I felt like I earned it after paying Mrs.Richardson to call me stupid in front of a crowd and be protected by tenure. My reviews keep getting deleted, but spiritual savage, Aquarius and company, collapse codes, rumble, and candid with casey not only called me out by a name in 2023 online but they said it would be loud for everyone to see before my classmate in the reporters class came on the screen with a gun. Casey said they were taking it online because they would never be caught that way.
