Sorry if this seems a bit too basic, but I'm just starting my college search and I'm trying to gather all the basic information I can. Can anyone tell me exactly where is VCU located? Thank you in advance!
Virginia Commonwealth University, often referred to as VCU, has a central location in Richmond, Virginia. The campus is embedded in the heart of the city, providing a unique urban college experience. Richmond is the state's capital and offers amenities like cultural institutions, historic landmarks, and a lively arts scene, not to mention plenty of internships and job opportunities due to the various businesses and government agencies located there. When researching, it might be useful to note that VCU actually consists of two campuses: the Monroe Park Campus, where most of the academic buildings and dorms are; and the MCV Campus (Medical College of Virginia), largely dedicated to healthcare studies.
