Chesapeake residents have strong higher-education options, led by Tidewater Community College's Chesapeake Campus and a number of universities across the Hampton Roads region.
Tidewater Community College (TCC) operates a Chesapeake Campus offering associate degrees, certificates, and transfer pathways. Nearby universities across South Hampton Roads — including Old Dominion University and Norfolk State University — are within commuting distance for four-year degrees.
TCC and regional providers also offer workforce training, continuing education, and dual-enrollment programs in partnership with Chesapeake Public Schools.
