Throughout my many years of learning, I've always found my way back to LFCC. From the online college classes during senior year of high school, to summer coarse to accelerate the degree process at universities, to enrolling full time for an associates degree, LFCC is for everyone. Personally, I have taken different classes to explore several different degrees and I have found one common theme. The teachers love what they do. They are passionate about what they teach which creates an excitement in the classroom unlike many universities. I have attended four different colleges and universities and the faculty doesn't even compare. The class sizes are small, so the professors take the time to learn students names and a little about each one. They also make themselves extremely available for students. They want their students to learn, and you can tell.

Abigail

It gets the job done. Most professors are willing to work with you and hold reasonable office hours. Most are very laid-back, just show up, take notes, and study a bit; you'll be good to go. There are few clubs and student activities, though none of any interest. Most of the student population is there to get their degree and move on and are not highly involved or interested in anything else. There is a very minimal sports life taking place only at the main campus. For freshmen going in I would suggest you relax, LFCC is easy to enter and the office staff is helpful in administering financial aid and helping with admissions. Just go in serious about your education, and they'll be sure to help you in any way you need.

Marlene

Lord Fairfax is a good community college. It has a variety of activities to participate in and good professors.

Rebecca

I would highly recommend Lord Fairfax Community College. I have been going there for three years now, and I can say I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Everyone is warm and welcoming, including the teachers. I loved most of my teachers. They were always there if I needed help with anything. I never stopped learning once I started going here.

  11. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    The most frustrating aspect about my school has nothing to do with the quality of education. I find that most professors will go out of their way to make sure you have the opportunity to succeed if you're willing to put in the effort. The most frustrating thing about school is seeing other people who just don't care about their grades or what happens. I am a first generation college student, and it breaks my heart that other students don't realize just how wonderful the opportunity of college really is.
