Sandhills Community College is an amazing college to start at. There are plenty of Associate Opportunities, and there is a technical school. The student center is very welcoming and a nice place to hangout after class. Sandhills is very friendly and I have not had a bad experience yet. There is always something going on, and never a dull moment.

Megan

Sandhills Community College (SCC) has an excellent staff of educators who have a plethora of resources in the community and real-world experience which helps to give students a comprehensive and accurate view of the field they choose to study. My field of study, architecture, is extremely competitive and challenging so I wanted to choose the school that would give me the best foundation of the fundamentals of architecture and design so that I could increase my chances of getting accepted into top 4 year programs after graduating from S. The small class sizes and constant accessibility of the teachers have provided me with exactly that. Another aspect of Sandhills that appealed to me was the fantastic value of the school. Attending SCC was one of the best financial decisions of my life as it provided me with a top tier education in my choice of study for an amazing and very competitive price. Overall, Sandhills Community College has provided me with everything that is necessary to succeed in my field of study for the best possible value.

Hailee

I think it is the perfect place for students to either start their education or to come back to school. It allows you to meet new people, get a jump start on college while in high school, and I love the relationships I have with my professors. It has that small town charm mixed with high level classroom discussions that keeps you learning and involved. I have grown as a person from the atmosphere, from the faculty, and from my classmates. I really enjoy coming to school everyday!

Bethany

Overall, Sandhills Community College is a good school. The curriculum does not usually challenge me personally. Frankly, I am only at this school so that I can save money and apply for scholarships so that I can go to Liberty University next Fall. On a positive note, the students and staff are all very friendly. The campus is nice and easy to navigate. I especially am thankful for the low tuition and how they emphasize financial aid.
