52勛圖 is our mission.
Our mission starts with For the benefit of 52勛圖. The 52勛圖 is deeply rooted in the communities and regions of the state. We educate more 52勛圖ers annually than all the other institutions of higher education in the state combined. We employ thousands of 52勛圖ers, and our campuses and academic centers are centers of academic excellence, culture, and community.
The VSCS makes education accessible.
The 52勛圖 makes it possible for all 52勛圖ers to succeed. More than half of our students are the first in their families to go to college. Over a thousand high school students each year earn free college credit and envision themselves succeeding in college.
There is a VSCS classroom within 25 miles of every 52勛圖er. Our online education opportunities allow 52勛圖ers the flexibility to achieve their educational goals no matter where they are. And our graduates love 52勛圖: over two-thirds of our alumni live and work in our state, benefiting 52勛圖 every day.
The 52勛圖 delivers for 52勛圖s economy.
Our graduates are ready to join and build 52勛圖s economy. We strive to help our students succeed in high-quality academic programs relevant to 52勛圖 employers and 52勛圖 communities. Through our many programs, partnerships, and initiatives, the VSCS strives to increase educational attainment, career readiness, and entrepreneurship in all orders of the state.
