Student reviews

Campus and vibes

Current Student

Wilson community has a CCP program which enables high school students (10-12) to take college classes for free. These students mainly take courses online, but if requested they may take the courses online. We were allowed to participate in the activities going on in the college and weren’t intimidated by other students at any time.

Current Student

I am an online student at wilson community college and i’ve only being going for on semester so far and i would say the process has been very smoothly while when i first enrolled i had the best help and was taken through the process step by step.

Student

While at WCC, I came in contact with a lot of different people who were interested in me and in my education, and the instructors were vested in their students. The staff made themselves available to assist students in any way they could. After completing the training, I tried to attend a community college closer to home, but it didn’t work out because I felt like they didn't care about me or my education.... So, I decided to go back to WCC. That was the best decision I have ever made. I am currently in my fourth consecutive semester, and I completed my last two semesters with a 4.0 GPA. Thank you, Wilson Community College!
