I want to know what college has a good reputation for their photography classes. Any college recommendations will be fine, but if someone could tell me one that is in Virginia I would appreciate it.

Given that you are asking this question ... I am going to assume you are starting out with taking College Level Photography Classes ....

And that you are limited on your budget as well.

The suggestion here is to look towards your LOCAL Community or Jr. College ... and their Art Department. They will have Digital Imaging Classes, Digital Photography Classes, Darkroom Techniques, etc ... all geared towards a progression to an Associates Degree in Graphic Arts (which is the category of the Degree).

I've attended (personally), the Digital Imaging, Website Design, and yes, Digital Photography Classes at MY Local Community College (FL) and have found them to be FUN, CREATIVE, and a joy to take ... and although you have to do a LOT of work in the course (and I had to submit a portfolio of selections ... plus we did work with the Adobe Professional Creative Suite of Software Products) ... It was something I enjoyed tremendously. I found my local newspaper was a great source of ideas on events (local/nearby) that were either FREE or low cost .. so that ALL my submitted works were of different origins ... and all it meant was that my time was required to satify the course syllabus.

I now have that portfolio -- and I enjoy using my Digital SLR Cameras (and their lenses) ... even more so than the 35mm SLRs that were the ONLY option when I was a young adult (yes, I am an Empty-Nesting Single Retiree going BACK to College). I've used this knowledge to build skills I never thought I had (and for me ... Arts is a LONG stretch from the Sciences that I based my original UGrad and Grad Degrees as well as my careers on) ... and have used the skills in designing websites for the family farm as well as others ... and marketing our products.

I would also recommend starting at a community college, and then you could go on to a four year school specializing in photography. A friend of mine in one of my community college classes received a full scholarship to Art Center in Pasadena, CA. Another school with a good reputation is Brooks in California...very expensive.
