Beginning in Birmingham, Alabama, then expanding into nineteen locations across the southern U.S., Virginia College is a career-focused school offering a variety of certificate, diploma and degree programs, in fields that include Business Management, Culinary Arts, Interior Design, 3D Imaging and Animation, Cosmetology and numerous others. Degreed programs include both associate’s and bachelor’s programs; a few master’s degree programs are also offered in fields that include Cybersecurity, Criminal Justice and Business Administration. Some online courses are also available.
Specific education programs may vary by location–for example, 3D Imaging and Animation is currently available only as a bachelor’s program at the Huntsville, Alabama campus, and Interior Design is only available in Birmingham, also as a bachelor’s program. Expect to invest less than a year of time for most diploma programs, two years for associate’s degrees, and 3-4 years for bachelor’s programs. Virginia College claims on its website that its tuition is all-inclusive, with no hidden fees; however, specific tuition information is not readily available.

May 6, 2010 1Virginia College is full of games…they take forever to give you your own momey!!! When you call Direct Loans they say the checks have been cut!!! When you call the school they give you the run around!!! Financial Aide sucks!!! All they do is lie…they NEVER know whats going on!!! Then rumor around CAMPUS right now is that they are charging us for room & board!!! Then we only have 1 medical lab & we dont have all our supplies to learn in the medical field!!! & we have to argue with the instructor in the medical lab just to use it!!! They taking all our money & using it to buy another building that we wont even get to go to because we graduate in Dec.’10!!! WTF? I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL TO ANYONE…IF I WASNT SO CLOSE TO GRADUATING I WOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT!!!

November 2, 2009 1I can honestly say that Virginia College of Huntsville has the worst financial aid and business office workers. I have been attending the school now for 3 years and not one time out of those years have my financial aid package been completed on time. By the time it is completed you have owed the school so much money that your refund is next to nill. I have told them this many times and still nothing has been done about it.

October 26, 2009 1I actually attend the Virginia College in Augusta, Georgia. I am currently in my second semester. I absolutely would not reccoment this school to anyone. I was promised my “extra” loan money when I did my financial aid. that was over 3 months ago. I have called and emailed time and time again, with no real response. i finally went in to tell the school that I wanted to transfer and they acted like i was dumb and that i was making a huge mistake for leaving there school. They want me to finish out the semester–I’m guessing to get their money???? I can’t get any answers from anyone in the financial aid department and am starting to get pissed at these morons. i feel like i have been /lied to.
