To accommodate an ever-growing student body, the college purchased 78 acres in Annandale in 1966 for construction of the first of six NOVA campuses. Robert W. McKee served as the first president of the college. Soon after, the college was renamed Northern Virginia Community College when the Virginia General Assembly changed the name of the technical college system to the Virginia Community College System (VCCS).</p> <p class="cdm_style" style="margin-top:10px;">Originally known as the Central Campus for its central location in Fairfax County, the Annandale Campus is the largest of NOVA’s six campuses.

McKee as president in 1968, and additional buildings were constructed during his tenure in 1969, 1970, 1972, 1992, and 1997.
