For me, my overall experience with Surry Community College has been quite pssitive; from the helpful staff to the beautiful quiet campus. From my very first contact with the staff members they took the time to answer all of my questions and offered helpful hints on how to apply for thier school and for the financial aid program. The students that i have spoken to have all said how much they enjoyed the medium class size, whitch tells me the teachers have more one on one time with each of their students, and for me that is very important to have that individualized attention ao that i may better understand the material that is being tought.
