BACKGROUND
“If we look at the numbers of potential students, and if we also look at the relative costs involved, the implication is clear that a community college system is the quickest, and the most efficient, the most economical, in fact, virtually the only way the future of young people can be met.”
Mills E. Godwin, Jr.Governor, Commonwealth of Virginia1966-1970,1974-1978

COLLEGE AUTONOMYVirginia has presented an impressive program that will allow for greater self-sufficiency among its institutions of higher education. •Public colleges within the state will be allowed to:
Earn interest on the tuition and fees that they collect.
Carry over unused balances into successive years.
Seek increased operational authority.

FINANCE
Virginia’s community colleges try to keep tuition costs down to make college affordable for every student, but many students still need help to cover a variety of costs such as of tuition, books, room board, and transportation.
