Honestly Norwalk Community College is a great school. I have been going here since fall of 2013 and am finishing up my last semester now. There are so many great things to talk about I don't even know where to begin!
Affordability: This school is by far the most affordable option out there and you really are getting the bang for your buck they have soooo many programs to choose from. A lot you can't even get anywhere else around Connecticut like restaurant managment for example! They also have a great nursing program that will cost you wayy less to get in than any other school while getting just as good knowledge :)
Staff: i have been here since 2013 and probably 98 percent of the teachers have been fantastic. The best part too is that they have numerous teachers for each subject like math or english 101 so if you dont think one is working out for you, you have a lot more option.
Credits: All the credits you take here our state schools will except so if you plan to transfer to southern, westconn, eastern, or central after this your covered! Im looking to transfer next semester and my advisors are telling me since I have so many great credits already finished at Ncc it will only take me around another year instead of 2 years to finish :)
Campus life: Even though people dont think you really get a college experience at a community college it is really what you make of it honestly you can. We have great clubs like anime club, art club, business club, even things for community service. We also have a great cafeteria with honestly pretty decent food. The school itself is always spotless and beautiful. I have made tons of life long friends here and the great part about community college is most of them live in your area so you can still hang out during things like winter break because they are not going to fly half way across the world.
Misconceptions: A lot of students don't want to go to community college because they thing they will be surrounded by older
People who they cant relate to or people who did really bad in high school. That is really not true, sure you are going to get a diverse group of people like anywhere else. I can tell you most people here are really motivated and friendly. read more
