20 Best Paramedic Programs In Charlotte, NC (2022 Updated)

This Is A Tricky Place For Me To Rate Because I Can't Stand Some Of Their Professors And Management Skills. Some Of Their Professors And Management Team Have It Out For Me. I Give Them What They Want And Their Never Happy With It. I Have Never Graduated From There With Any Degree And I Probably Never Will Based Upon How They Do Me. I Don't Have Any Desire To Attend There Full Time Ever Again. This Place Has Taught Me About All Corporations, They're All Corrupt At Their Core. Also, I Don't Care Who I Make "Angry" By This Review. I Hope It's Read 📚 By Some Of There Employees And They Read This And Make The Necessary Changes. Thanks Davidson-Davie Community College, Now I Never Want To Attend Any College Anywhere Ever Again Because Of Your Corruption. Which All Corporations Are Corrupt At Their Core, Even Colleges. Community Colleges Included Are Corrupt At Their Core. #DontBeMutsAllen Jolley

Important tip!! Join SSS TRIO!! They are a student support service that really cares about your success! They've got learning workshops and grant money for struggling students, either academically, financially, or both. When I went to University I never had something like this. Idk if it existed, and if it did, the University never advertised it for students. Also! This school has an amazing program for those who want to work with animals. The ZAS program (Zoo and Aquarium Science) is a 2 yr applied associates program and its goal is to get you straight into your career. They have terrestrial animals and an aquarium on site!

I went for the IT area. Big mistake. They could not keep knowledgeable instuctors. Was told most would be online when enrolling and after enrollment only two classes was online. They kept putting me in classes that were to advanced like one or two classes should have been done before taking. I have a issue with walking due to a previous injury had asked for assistance to the buildings and never received. I ended up leaving due to the rude and not trained instructors and it being to much to make it up the hill to classes daily. This was in 2015, 2016.Marinda Carter

The school maybe nice, I never had the opportunity to explore, however; their paramedic program is a joke. The staff runs each class on different criteria, for instance my instructor (Wesley Carter) stated we don't do pulse checks in CPR after the first check indicating an arrest. However; as a BLS CPR instructor that is false and the AHA teaches pulse check. However; he was my instructor so in order to test out I did as he wanted and when a different instructor tested me they failed me for using the broslow tape and for not checking pulses, said I should have done it by weight based and the broslow tape is a guideline. Since then I have spoken to several national certified paramedics, nurses, and physicians that state this school is a joke and shouldn't be teaching students period and that the broslow tape is there for a reason to assist in dosing a pediatric patient when weight is not obtained. The instructors can't get on the same page and give out different requirements and if you do what one says it's wrong to every other instructor. Also they give you test out scenarios at the end every instructor does 2 which is you standard, set by North Carolina and my instructor is the only one that does 3 scenarios. No uniformity and poor quality instructors. Horrible experience that I will never get my time, my money, and my family gatherings, birth of my child, and events because these people are not on the same page.Kevin Meiser

Get me outt. If I could drop out i would. This college is awful I learn more from quizlet then I have with any teachers. The teachers here are all lazy and only care about their paycheck. I asked for help and never got a response from one teacher and I still haven't :P. What I would give to be able to drop out from this college. I'd probably learn more by asking my dog for help then any teacher here. If your looking to attend DON'T. The classes are overpriced 400 dollars for ONE CLASS. That is awful. I felt so bad I paid my parents back the money because the prices are horrendous and you won't learn anything. Just use quizlet for 4 years instead of attending here and you'll be better off in life.Niko Wetherington

2 stars for providing a college beyond high school in Kinston. One star for pay compared to other community colleges that pay adjunct instructors $35+ per hour. How has LCC contributed to Lenoir County in skills and talent? On Pitt college's website it states that its students have contributed over $114 million dollars to the local community. I walked around the college grounds and it is boring, no energy or excitement. Lastly, LCC should market more to Black students and the Black community because although Kinston is almost 70% Black; it's not reflected in its student body. Why are there wwwaaaayyy more white students than Black students at LCC? Tracey Jones, Ph.D studentTracey Jones

I have mixed feelings about my time at Cleveland Community College. The student services and enrollment center is outstanding. The go out of their way to get students the help they need with little to no hassle. I was able to receive all of my learning accommodations and register for classes with ease. I would like to say thank you to Dr. Willis. He was the best part about my college experience at Cleveland and is what every professor should strive to be. However, the most dissatisfactory experience was that of the quality of healthcare department. I expected a little more passion and respect from my advisor and professors in the Bailey building. They have an attitude comparable to that of the any DMV. The education is of low quality because the just cram material and expect you to get it quickly (85 pages of anatomy in four days), I had to battle with them to use my laptop in class, and they are the type of professors that like to give pop quizzes just to add to our suffering. Also, if you are a radiography student and live in Gaston County, be prepared to drive 90min to a clinical site and leave at 9:00pm, while coming back to CCC the following morning at 8:00am. The amount of stress they inflict on students is insane! This is coming from someone who has achieved nearly 130 college credit hours and is typically a straight A student.Sherman Norton

As an IT student, I've had a very mediocre experience studying for my double major (IT Networking and Systems Security). Just recently, however, I've gone through one of the most infuriating and stressful experiences I've had in years brought on by their NET-125 instructor. This instructor does not clearly list their standards for submitting work, and I've been given several zeroes for completed work that was submitted in their entirety, or missing one or so minor parts (such as leaving a comment saying you did the work). After several attempts to contact this instructor with no response, I've given up trying to talk with them about these grades. For this reason and several others, I'm led to believe that this instructor does not care about the success of their students, contradictory to what they like to advertise. Their habit of giving zeroes for missing small portions of assignments that never actually pertain to furthering the students' education or demonstrate a student's competency with the material they've learned is a pointless and detestable practice. Would an instructor with a good work ethic and a genuine desire to teach and cultivate learning in their students give out the absolute worst grades possible to the pupils who are actively learning and submitting nearly completed work, but miss out on a few small details?Valkyrie

Had a great time visiting the welding school a Cleveland Tech College. Their welding course is superb and they teach the students everything they could possibly need to know about breaking in the welding career. The head instructor Tim Wisher is a personal friend and his associate Dana is a great place to visit and talk shop. I'm a retired pipeline welder I have known Tim for probably close to fifteen years now. he really cares about his students and wants them to progress to have a bright future.

Ordering books from the bookstore is a terrible experience. First, the books were listed as on back-order (which wasn't accurate, they just don't update it), but they charged TWENTY DOLLARS for GROUND shipping. If that's not gouging, I don't know what is. To add insult to injury, they require signature on the package, so I've now missed the package two days in a row because UPS won't leave it at my door. It's a damn book, I shouldn't have to sign for it. Idiots.Chris Kehres

My experience at Stanly was awesome! I was in the Criminal Justice Program. All the instructors and advisors were excellent at directing me to what step was next. The instructors were very responsive to questions and helped me through the classes step by step. I graduated with a 4.0 GPA because of this. I highly recommend Stanly Community College to anyone pursuing a career or degree in Law Enforcement or Corrections.Steve Whitesel

I was actually a student who who wore many hat's! I am a full time employee, proud mother of two, and successfully completed my Associate degree program online with Stanly. My professors and advisor were both attentive and understanding with any concerns I had. Furthermore, I was very well taken care of at this college. It was truly a wonderful experience and if they had a bachelor's program I would still be there now!Tiffani Cash

As a staff member I just wanted to clarify the review by Trudy. We do not ask for proof of residence to use our library. All community college libraries are public. Also, our computers are available to all our patrons for however long they would need to use them. In the event of all of them being used and a student needing to get on one we would probably ask a public library patron to accommodate the student. However we do have an adequate amount of computers that we haven't run into that problem yet. : ) If you want a nice quiet place to study, we are your library! It is especially quiet on days when school is out but we are open. The staff are friendly and willing to help with research and computer needs. We also have many interesting books and movies. Come on in and check some out! : )Cindy Baker

Have used the library and computers on numerous occasions. Open to non-college folks with proof of city residence. Student employees helpful when needed. Computer time limited if not a student. Great resource, though! This college is growing fast! Lots of programs not normally available to those not looking for a degree. Short programs/training for those wanting additional information for better jobs, etc. Finally knocked down old hospital on West End St and a new nursing school will begin to be erected soon according to press releases. Will bring more traffic to area but learning facilities are always a boom to the area.Trudy G.

Davidson College campus is beautiful, with tons of outdoor space to enjoy. I love that the trees are tagged (I’m an NCSU student and took dendrology last year, Davidson College was the perfect place to practice tree IDs)! The artwork around campus is beautiful as well. It’s always a great place to walk around with family and friends or to have a picnic, and to workout at the track. I’ve seen some pretty cool birds around campus, so decent birding location too!Marin Harnett

A beautiful campus. The art on display throughout the campus is very good. great place to take a family for a walk or just go on your own. Buildings are really worth walking around and looking at. The fact that it's immediately adjacent to the old downtown Davidson with all its shops, restaurants and other type businesses makes it the perfect place for a walk and a shop!Gene Blair

Very nice scenery to walk around and enjoy. Plenty of shops to go to and places to ear. Everyone has been so friendly and if you ha e children, it's a great place to take them out on their bikes/etc. And, around the corner is a Ben and Jerry's for that sweet tooth.Matthew Mobley

Let's be honest, there are good things and bad things to this school. While the department the major I have is very small and thus more personal with you, especially with advising, the bigger departments like business are very impersonal with you, and hold rather strict barrings on until you complete the, to be honest, useless general education the college forces on you, though that is the case anywhere in America. It is almost arrogant in how they dismiss the ideas and opinions of the students in favor of their own. They are also known for their excessive penny pinching. With the prices on campus being outrageous, they also hold strict rulings for housing and parking, giving you hefty bills if you mess up on even the slightest infraction. Overall, the grand and upcoming productions they are doing with the school, such as the football field and new dorms and buildings, do not help the general student population much. Now, with this said, there are good things to this place. For one, in smaller departments, you get a generally more personal and kinder attention to you and your college career. With my department at least, as long as you show the ability, they help you get the classes you want and need. Also, at least on campus, school spirit runs deep with the green and gold. There are more than enough events to bolster this said school patriotism, and can eventually come to rival other schools. Also, while some professors have a tendency to stuff beliefs down the student's throats, others can be thought inspiring, and can be interesting and even fun to go to classes sometimes. However, the lousy administration still lingers over these benefits, and hampers the overall quality of the school. If they fixed that problem, they would be a good school. However, with that said problem, I can only recommend it, as a current student, as a mediocre to slightly above average at best school to prospective students. To them, I would look at your options and see if you want to come here. I do not regret the choice of coming to this school, but I cannot ignore its blatant and crippling flaws.Drunk Farmer

If you have a lot of money, or you're a research student or engineer, you probably won't have a problem with this school. The school looks very nice on the outside, but as a student, I hated it. The dorms were god awful. Their elevators did not work on the first day of move in. At one point they did not have enough rooms in the highrises for the students, and had to house students in the commons rooms and blackout the windows. The Cafeteria food was always questionable. Cold and pretty unimaginative. Facilities and services always closed down early. There was hardly anything open on the weekends. Not to mention there is barely any means of going anywhere outside of campus if you don't have a car. Speaking of cars, parking services is ridiculous and incompetent. They wrote me up even when I had my parking tag right on the windshield, positioned properly where it was supposed to be, and another time I got a ticket after the semester had ended! This school just looks for ways to nickel and dime students. They're department chairs and coordinators are a bunch of fools who can't manage their jobs. And when they make mistakes, you are the one who will probably end up paying for it.Eric Williams

I went to UNCC back in the mid to late 90s. All I can say is if I had a time machine, I'd love to go back. I met several life-long friends that I continue to hang out with to this day. It's amazing how much the campus has changed over the years. The last time I was there (for the first football game) I almost got lost. I received a fine arts degree and have made a career out of digital printing and design. According to other reviews, people still like to go home on the weekends. That was also the case when I attended, but for the brave that stay around the school during the weekend, more power to you. That's where the fun is really at. Also, I'm hearing that students aren't attending the football games and the ones that are, tend to leave early. All I have to say to that is, just be glad you have a football team. We were so sports deprived back in the day, we would go to all the basketball and baseball games. Good times!Chad Milburn

School beautifully set in the mountains. My first time teaching for the Small Business Center and look forward to coming back. The Small Business Center (SBC) mission is helping local small businesses live the American dream and become more profitable. If you are a local small business run don't walk to the schools SBC and learn about all the resources they have to offer the local community small businesses. Last night I taught WordPress websites and next time I will be covering Social Media for Businesses including how critical it is to be on local directories beyond Tripadvisor . Following that will be how to get more results in your social media with pictures and video. Look forward to coming back!Martin Brossman

I wish I could give zero stars. The administration at this place could care less about the student. It’s all about your money. Please find another college that cares about the student and not $$$$ I got talked down to like a dog by the Dean, who said “Well if you can read, it clearly says…” What type of person in that role talks to a student in that manner. Just know all they want is your money!! Also when I signed up for a continuing education class I got zero information sent to me about the class. The librarian had to show me where the class was being held!! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️Jessica Right

As a current student here the only word I can use to describe this school is sad. The amount of competent people that work here can be counted on one hand. Most people I get help from (or try to at least) at this school can’t even answer the simplest of questions some of the teachers have great online platforms but the rest just dump a load of work on you and don’t put forth any effort to help you work through it. I plan on transferring to ANY school as soon as I get my associates degree.Caleb Craeton

This college has made a terrible impression. They got me admitted as a transfer student, and I have been preparing for the Fall session online, but to appear in person, and I just found out I missed the registration deadlines because student advising never got back to me. I took the new student orientation and the professor, just skimmed through all the info. There wasn't time for questions, and she cut it short by 30 minutes. It didn't even explain how to register online. I had been in communication and prepared for this session but didn't understand how to register so all the classes I had 'added to my schedule' weren't actually registered, and no one followed up with my questions. I thought I was registered, and even as I try to register now after the fact, it still says I need student advising which no one ever got back to be except for an email to say I already had everything set up. I am torn about this. Now I have to wait another session to get started?! NO! I will take my education somewhere where I can actually get assistance. This is such an emotional drag.Gabrielle Flores

In this crazy new way we do life I was uncertian how this would work. When I signed up I promptly received the directions and when I arrived and called into the number provided John was ready and prepared. Even though it was a remote setting with the connection via camera, John was friendly and personable and made it less awkward. He guided me through what to expect and gave great feedback and tips to improve. Computers talking to you can be somewhat difficult, but because John was there signed in also he added the human element which made it easier to understand and correct when needed. I have had fellow nurses who have just had the mannequin and because there was no human interaction they found it more difficult to complete the hands on. Code One was easy to book and I would recommend anyone who needs to complete the hands on portion to use them.Victoria Gulickson

Ken was awesome! I always get nervous about these things no matter how many years I do them. He did a fantastic job of walking me through everything and putting me at ease. You can tell he is incredibly knowledgeable and proficient on the subject. He gave me some good ideas and helpful tips to that will help me with the info. He made things relevant to my position. Great class and process and they’ve done an excellent job with it being virtual- utilizing the technology available.Krista Gable

I am usually able to complete this certification through my employer, but I wasn’t for this renewal. I decided on Code One and it was the best decision I could’ve made! The price was comparable to most and the directions were easy and straight to the point. Kat was an awesome instructor I felt like she was cheering for me and she made me feel at ease. I would definitely use this company again.Doretha McLaughlin

The wireless card my laptop came with had a lot of problems, and I found a ton of people online having the same issue who advised that the only permanent fix was to replace the wireless card with a better one. I contacted Lenovo support because it was a known issue with this model, and they said they'd cover the replacement, but it would take 6-8 weeks. So I decided to order the replacement myself. I know a decent amount about computers but I was not confident enough to try to install hardware into a laptop by myself. I called around the area and was quoted a lot of different prices and time frames, but all were at least 2 full days minimum. Fortunately I called PC Paramedic and the guy there was amazing (I think it was Anthony? Can't quite remember). He gave me an accurate estimate quickly over the phone, and he was honest with me and said he couldn't guarantee same day, but he'd try. I really appreciated how upfront he was with me. To my surprise, he installed it super fast and I got a call like 2 or 3 hours later saying it was ready. Laptop is connecting flawlessly now. But had some kind of issue come up (incompatible wireless card, wireless card wasn't actually the problem, etc.), he was totally prepared to tell me what needed to be done to diagnose and fix it. Very honest, helpful, friendly guy and I will for sure be back here if I have another issue I can't fix myself.Cam AC

I was in a serious, time sensitive jam. PC Paramedics came through for me in less than an hour and gave me options to fit my budget: At the time I was strapped for money as I was a day from moving into new home. I wish I could remember the Gent's name who aided me, great guy. As I told him I will be returning for my other PC needs, sooner rather than later. I see a few bad reviews; from experience I know how upset people become over their computers and when they fail or become broken, we customers can become right nasty in personality. Deal with a few nasty customers per day, week, month and ones attitude can get salty. From my dealings, PC Paramedics are willing to work with their customers to a reasonable extent.Dempcey Knight

These guys are the best, bar none! Jon is the greatest guy– knowledgeable and super helpful- and makes for an amazing team with Tony. After a previous great experience, for which I also gave them a high endorsement, I brought them my long-dead PC; and for a ridiculously reasonable (as in low) price they were able to restore all my lost data, and get me a much better and faster refurbished computer- within hours! I have never had this kind of personalized service and attention, education, and beyond fairness in pricing that Jon offers. I am honest in telling everyone that I will never use anyone else. Now, if he only did plumbing, electrical, and other stuff I need done…Jack Riley

I bought a nice Dell Inspiron 5000 back in 2019 and after a few months began to have trouble with the space bar and keys not working correctly. I was still under Dell warranty and had them dispatch a repairman to fix it. What I learned later is that there was a labor intensive repair that was necessary to resolve my issue. Dell didn't equip their tech with the right part and they tried a software fix that didn't work. After a couple more tries with other technicians I called PC Paramedic. I described the issue to Anthony and he offered to come pick up my laptop and diagnose it. I was amazed that Mike called me back later that afternoon and clearly explained the issue, and a breakdown of parts and labor cost. Getting the parts took longer than expected but as soon as the part arrived Mike completed the repair and tested it. Anthony delivered my laptop to my door. My laptop is now as good as new. The Red Carpet service alone was an amazing timesaver and super value. I truly appreciate the professionalism and great service that Anthony and his team provided. I am really glad that I was able to connect with you.Harry Redd

My work/personal laptop fritzed out 2 days ago and I was devastated and worried I was about to lose everything. I googled "computer repair near me" and came upon PC Paramedic. As soon as I stepped in the door there was such a confidence coming from the guys I felt immediately better. They made it seem like no big deal at all. They had it back to me fully restored with a new hard drive and all my files recovered in like 1 and a half days. And the price was not bad at all, I was scared it was going to be more. Anthony is great at what he does and he said he's been doing this for 17 years I think and he has other locations around the region. I'm so thankful I bypassed Geek Squad and found PC Paramedic. Dealing with tech issues like viruses is so mystifying and I'm thankful I now have a go to company that I can trust and lean on to get me out of situations like that when and if they arise. Thanks SO MUCH guys!!Rachel Denny

I recently moved and in the move, my desktop quit working. Anthony came and picked it up and repaired it for me, all on the same day. He got it all reconnected and running well at my home and even added in my printer to the network so that I am able to print again from both my desktop and laptop. I am not tech averse and am usually able to go to enough forums to determine how to do something but that one stumped me. He was pleasant, efficient and it seemed to me, reasonably priced. He did more than I expected. I will be calling him for my next computer problem.Steven Lenes

I went to NCOAE for the EMT hybrid course. The level of preparation and professionalism was revealed in the quality of the services that they offered to us. NCOAE prepared such an excellent curriculum that they were able to prepare us for the National Registry EMT Exam. The level of knowledge of the instructors is second to none. They made the classes interesting by answering lots of questions and providing us with examples of situations that they encountered in real life, and telling us how they dealt with it. The instructors were super knowledgeable, smart, funny, understanding, supportive, and you could tell that teaching is something that they value a lot. Everyone at NCOAE was very kind and eager to help us in any way they could! I would recommend this to anyone. It might've been just a 21 day class, but for me it was an intense course that gave us the tools necessary to go out there and perform life saving measures without a doubt! Thank you NCOAE!Winfrid M. (KingFrogPR)

I completed the EMT intensive course and highly recommend it! I currently live in another state and found this course through Google when I couldn’t find any other courses available in my area. Initially, I called to get more information and Allie was very helpful with answering questions and sold me on the program. The course consists of pre-class coursework, the virtual class 8am-5/5:30pm EST, the in-person class at NCOAE, and four days of clinicals. Kate, Phillip, and Todd were incredible instructors that taught us material that we immediately used once we started clinicals, making the course feel very relevant. Additionally, I stayed on campus and it was well worth it. There isn’t heating but it is insulated. If you go after November, I recommend bringing a little heater if you get cold easily. Again, I highly recommend this course because the knowledge and experience you gain is worth every penny!Alexandria Moore

BEST EMT COURSE FOR PRE-MED MAJORS WHO DON'T WANT TO WAIT HALF A YEAR FOR A EMT LICENSE! NCOAE offered a professional course within a small time window. Nothing was a surprise, everything that was stated and asked of us was spelled out. I was guided by great instructors that were enthusiastic and cared for our success. If you are a recent college graduate looking for medical experience through EMT this program is ideal. Previous knowledge is not required but it is highly encouraged. Lots of information in a short amount of time could be difficult for those who are not from a medical background.Christopher Cannon

I really enjoyed the staff and the faculty at the campus. The night classes came in handy if you work full time during the day or if you have small kids to take care of. Also, with so many online classes it is much easier to handle the work/life balance and responsibilities. I like how clear everything is to understand, how the faculty are subject matter experts and work with people who need extra attention and extra patience as life can be challenging when juggling so much. The people in financial aid and the Dean are really good about answering questions and providing guidance and support. The class structures being one at a time in the semester and the small amount of people in the class help make it easier to have a relationship with the faculty. Don’t get me wrong, if you don’t study and you don’t focus, you will not succeed. But if what you want to do is get right to the point, work hard and get a job, this is the place to go. I know other people who have studied in different places and I honestly feel like when we talk about what classes I had to take and what material I had to study, I really feel like I got a lot more out of the experience than they did with theirs. No regrets.Theresa Martinez

This school needs to learn how to listen to the students sometimes. I can say that with some of the reviews they are right about the money part if I would’ve did more research i probably would’ve went somewhere else because how is it that I signed up for classes and did all the paper work but then when school starts and begin classes that all of sudden the books cost more then you expected. You should have known that before classes started or during the process prices don’t change overnight. The instructor i had no longer works here but she was a very good teacher, she made sure that you understand everything and always tried to relate it to everyday life things to help you remember and only because of her am i glad that i came here because she really made me fall in love with my program. They really lost the best instructor ever!!! Overall i say do your research no school is perfect but they got some snakes at this school and its sad because we suppose to be adults.Erin Braynon

Private school scam! Young adults, please don't fall for this. Sharon Palmer will manipulate you into signing over to pay fifty thousand dollars for a five thousand dollar course. All they care about is money and their credits don't even transfer. I withdrew in Novmeber and they still are triyng to get me to pay loans for classes I never attended. When I called them today, they said they split your fafsa in half (which makes no sense) and use the other half for the next semester wherther you go or not. This way, if the half doesn't cover the semester you're forced to take out a loan. Coretha and Sharon palmer spammed me with emails at one and two in the morning trying to coerce me into signing things and making me feel like it was life or death. Do not trust this school and if you can, go somewhere else.X'zavia Woods

I took an Emergency Medical Intensive with Landmark Learning, and I was blown away by the quality of instruction that I received. The instructors were knowledgeable and entertaining, I wasn't bored once during the entirety of the 169 hour course. The facilities were excellent as well. Who knew you could learn emergency medicine in a remote mountain classroom? I strongly recommend Landmark Learning for your educational needs.Cary Gavin

Six years of experience with almost all of the instructors at Landmark, UNC-G Piney Lake, Appalachian State and Lees McRae campus sites for WFA, WFR, and LNT programs. You can't find a better group to represent NOLS. On that note, there is an excellent article in the Greensboro, NC news (04/16/19) covering the March WFA class.It was extra cool that it was my son's recert year with Jason.Ed Booth

The amazing faculty and staff make this place. You also can’t beat how beautiful the campus is. This is the place to come for a course. I’ve taken several courses here and the instructors have been top notch.Josh Ebert

I would like to leave a one-star review warning people to reconsider. Just to get a tiny bit of visibility, even if it's on this small of a scale. I'm not knocking or disagreeing with the people who left five-star reviews. I'm only saying that not everyone gets that level of treatment. Some people have been disserviced. Some people really have just wasted their money, effort, and SO MUCH time. I don't have the eloquence to come off as anything more than a disgruntled student. However, I believe it is important to give the next person more validity. Your experience as a new-to-this-college student could end up being a five-star-worthy experience. I’d only like to point out, that is not a given. Experiences here are based on many factors, the most important being the program you choose. Unless you have heard reviews speaking about a specific program at this college, I urge you to take generic or unspecific positive reviews with a grain of salt. (The nursing program is the only one I personally keep hearing glowing reviews of.) I came into this program with an idealistic mindset, thinking support would be plentiful. I did not expect to be met with blatant dismissiveness, passive-aggression, and inconsistencies. For any prospective students to CCC&TI, please consider all your options. If this is still what you must do… at least you’re not going in completely blind. I sincerely wish you the best of luck, you’re going to need it!Paola Myers

I took a course in truck-driving, CDL-A, under Dennis Wilson. He has integrity, is trustworthy, and I recommend any student to sign up under him. I'm grateful for everything he taught me, and for keeping the students in line. I received plenty of driving time, and it prepared me well for the road. I got hired on, and got out of the training company ASAP, and eventually was earning $1200+ a week, no kidding. There are opportunities. Some of the trainers were fine people, but the main thing is that the head instructor, Dennis Wilson did a great job. LouisComandOr Zerxius

School is garbage. No one there is willing to help you and they clearly don't care about their students. I recommend avoiding this place at all costs. Trust me when i say that no one in that school even knows what they are talking about even though they work there. They don't know their own system. When you call to ask questions, you can tell they get upset and aggravated at you. Horrible student services and horrible advising. Not to mention classes are boring and non-interactive.wolfVital

College is not peaches and cream. No college is really. Oh theres always that hot boy or that hot girl on campus. REMAIN focus then you will see how its an experience and Western Piedmont Community College is a start just like any other college. "Take A Step" or gaze at the ones that are stepping. Step into your future.Sandra Sells

In the Technology Dept. I was so amazed about all of the information to help me and the 3 ladies who work there were so helpful and knowledgeable about everything in that Dept. Thank you Star for all of your help.. All three of you are the Best..Donna Tanzi

I am a student currently participating in the BMC program. WPCC is a great college with great instructors and has a lot of activity’s.Nathan Wardwell

I returned for another pedicure today and AGAIN, it was OUTSTANDING. The receptionist was helpful and cordial. The two students who administered our pedicures were patient, thorough, and proficient as well as polite and friendly. The lab is clean, up to date on supplies, equipment and technology. The ambience is soothing and professional-no loud talking or raucous laughter. My husband, Mr. Particular, approved and was impressed enough to suggest that he’d like to return for haircuts and beard trim. The prices are quite reasonable and you’re helping closely monitored students learn and practice for success in their chosen career. Oh. And we always tip our providers!Linda Price

I've been going to BRCC for various things for years. I've taken many classes there. Most recently my husband and I took three Spanish classes. Our instructor was wonderful. She is a retired teacher si she knows how to help people learn. I've also attended several events at the college. No complaints about anything. A very good partner with the community and lots of classes to choose from.Shelly K.

They act military friendly but when we told the administration of this school we were a military family on the burn pit list during COVID they told me they really didn't care and strongly suggested I should go home and die so they wouldn't have to lift a finger to help. We transfered to a school that actively supports our veterans.Tristan Elliott

Surprised at just how outstanding this beautiful place could be! Frank selected this college and at first I had serious concerns but then I met Dr. Stroman and everything turned around. Frank has autism thus change is quite difficult but Dr. Stroman, Dr. Clark, Mrs. Allen, and Mrs. Weaver have turned his determined to go to college high school varsity jock into a dedicated, motivated college student. The Tutoring Center managed by Dr. Russell is excellent and has helped him tremendously with understanding what assignments he has to do, the instructions for the assignments, and provided him a note taker for class who goes over his notes with him to insure understanding. As you know with autism, oral language understanding is very difficult and very hard so this extra help makes all the difference in the world. He studies 5 to 6 hours a day because the work is college level and is not modified in any way but he is so happy to be a freshman student at Sandhills. He loves this college and mom is thrilled!!!Lisa Wishart

SCC has a beautiful campus in a quiet almost rural setting with a progressive town nearby. It is easy to access from several directions. I have known many students there. They all have positive statements about their experiences there. The Chancellor has a very positive reputation and is loved by the students and community. My daughter tried 2 other community colleges before going here. She loved SCC. When it was time to move on to an University she was sad to be leaving SCC. I would recommend it to anyone. Also visitors and students alike should make a point to visit the gardens. They have a collection of unusual plants and a beautiful rose garden that is worth seeing.Karen Williams

Great community college! I drive in from Sanford 4 times a week bc of the atmosphere here. It’s very friendly, and the teachers are knowledgeable and helpful. You get more of a university feel without the high stress atmosphere. Another nice thing is there’s more diversity of ages. Not everyone is right out of high school, I’m in my 30s and going for my second associates degree. The campus is well taken care of, and kept up to date.Amy Baker

Not military friendly!!! I attended RCC for 2 years my husband joined the military after I moved out of state RCC would no longer allow me to attend school there. Not even through distant learning! Even though this is VERY illegal and there are laws protecting service members and military spouses they refused to talk to me. I am still a North Carolina resident regardless of where I currently live because my husband is military. We are both still NC residence and still have to pay NC state taxes even though we live in a different state. Yet RCC still denied me finishing my degree there.Cassidy Fish

I applied and set an appointment with admissions because i want to take a specific class for a specific certification, i told that to the adviser and she could not help me get to where i needed! turns out they cant help if im not going to take any of their full major curriculum. Could not even pull up a list of classes because i didnt know the "course number"… How incompetent.Victor Espitia

RCC main campus is a great place to learn! RCC and the local community have expanded both infrastructure and class offerings. People travel.from around the great state of North Carolina to attend classes here in Asheboro, NC. Contact RCC today and see what classes are available to help foster your career and knowledge.
