Virginia Community Colleges (2-Yr Colleges)

Virginia Junior Colleges, Technical Schools, and Institutes

The State of Virginia administers its own system of higher education which operate at least two tiers of public colleges. One being the community colleges in Virginia, sometimes called Virginia junior colleges, or Virginia technical institutes, and so-called "four-year" Virginia colleges which award bachelor's and master's degrees. The "two-year" community educational institutions provide post-secondary education and lower-level tertiary education, granting certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees in Virginia. The name, "community colleges" derives from the fact that "two-year" colleges primarily accept, and attract, students from the Virginia local community

The Virginia Community College System grew out of a master plan undertaken in the early 1960s that envisioned a statewide system of 23 regional colleges serving every part of the state. The earliest colleges were originally founded as technical colleges or branch campuses of the University of Virginia or Virginia Polytechnic Institute but were quickly brought into the new community college system. Over an eight-year period between 1966 and 1973, 23 colleges were established across the state.
