Allyson - 10/10/2020
It's a great school for the price, especially if you're dual-enrolled as a high school student like I am. It's a community college, so don't expect to find a coffee shop and a Chick-Fil-A in every building on campus. One thing I do appreciate about this school is their arts programs- the theatre program is absolutely phenomenal and even teaches local children to act in well-known productions. Also, the jazz band here is great! I wouldn't move to Martinsville from elsewhere to go here, but if you live within a decent radius you can't go wrong for the price!

The professors are great. They make sure we become professionals in our field of study and beyond. The college personnel are sure we feel comfortable, safe, and knowledgeable. There is always someone there to assist us in our needs. They provide tutoring, admission assistance, assistance with finding a field of study, food, books, and much more. They are sure to provide us with everything we need to succeed.

Overall, Patrick Henry Community College is outstanding compared to another community college I attended right after high school. Everyone I've come in contact with at this college always has a great attitude and always willing to help. The professors are very attentive and helpful in class and even outside of class. There are so many opportunities for me, especially when I need help. The tutoring center is amazing at helping anyone who needs it and they always keep in contact with me asking if I need help.

Kayla - 06/20/2019
It is a great school! Teachers are always willing to do 1 on 1 time if you do not understand anything, class is small enough for teachers to get to know thier students, campus is easy to learn your way around, their softball team is amazing! Food is edible
Aleisia - 03/19/2019
I think Patrick Henry Community College is a great community college to attend. It provides a calm and welcoming atmosphere to all the students. The professors take pride in teaching the students all they can and make time for the students who have a hard time understanding some of the subjects reviewed in class.

Everyone is family.
Karathena - 02/06/2017
I am pleased with the school overall. However some of the teachers don't know how to physically teach, like they know the material but are bad at relaying it to the students. I love how the classes are about as big as they were in high school and the fact i can have a conversation with my professor makes it worth while.
Cody - 11/23/2016
I really enjoy going here and it is a great place to go for some down time and a place to be able to go and get a great degree with great teachers that are here to help you and want you to learn and succeed. the campus life here is good, and the surrounding area is quiet with plenty of places to eat and hang out.

What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
I would certainly go back and tell myself to study a little bit harder. My grades in high school great, I finished my senior year with a 3.5 gpa. The thing that I regret most is that i didn't dual enroll. I should have paid to recieve college credit for classes that i could have gotten out of the way in high school. Then in my first year of college i would have been considered a rising sophmore or junior. I would also tell myself to strive even harder in sports to earn a scholarship, mainly focusing on my track season because thats what I did best in. I would have join more and gotten more involved in the different organizations and clubs that my school offered as well.
What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
I wish I would have known more about the tuition ranges the financial assistance availability of four year institutions in Virginia and North Carolina as well as these schools' support of biology programs on campus.
What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
There is not much wrong with Patrick Henry Community College besides that it is beside an Industerial Park. The reason that it is a bad thing is because a lot of people that go to PHCC has a lot of health problems dealing with allergies.
Describe how your school looks to someone who's never seen it.
My school is small but full of passion for academics and serving our community. PHCC is diverse and offers many clubs, programs, and opportunities to further yourself as well as the community. I have enjoyed attending PH and I am so glad to be a Patrick Henry Patriot!
*NOTE: I actually attend Patrick Henry College, located in Purcellville, VA. It wasn't on the college list.*
You have to be willing to work hard and have commitment and dedication to be able to complete your degree. However, the faculty is wonderful and the classes are small so you will have plenty of opportunities to get to know other students and your professors and plenty of opportunities to ask for advice and help. PHC would be a better fit for someone with an interest in Government, Journalism, Literature, etc, as opposed to someone interested in the Sciences or Mathmatics.
