Did you know more than a third of QVCC’s students are older than 24?
At QVCC, we recognize that adult learners face challenges in returning to school that traditional students right out of high school do not. Do you have a full-time or part-time job? QVCC offers evening classes. Do you have a family or dependents to support and care for? QVCC offers a variety of online and hybrid classes.
Our faculty, staff, and advisors are eager to help you transition back into the classroom with a clear academic plan to further your education and to achieve your personal, academic, and career goals. We understand your unique challenges as an adult learner and are committed to providing the flexibility you need.
