VCU Off-Campus Instructional Sites
SACSCOC defines an off-campus instructional site as “a location geographically apart from an institution's sole main campus and where instruction is delivered.” Virginia Commonwealth University’s two main campuses are located a mile away from each other both in downtown Richmond. The Monroe Park Campus is home to most of our undergraduate students and their classes. Our five health sciences schools and our top-rated medical center are located on the MCV Campus. VCU also provides instruction at the off-campus instructional sites (OCIS) listed below.
