Naugatuck Valley Community College is a beautiful place to start after high school. Not only is the college free, but there are many opportunities for students to gain profit such as the STEM scholarship. As a STEM member, I can say that my experience was famaminal. Not only did this scholarship prepare me for the incoming college classes, but they have also helped me pick out my classes individually. These classes were specifically chosen for the student so that they may graduate as quickly as possible. The professors at Naugatuck Valley are fantastic as well. They are well educated and formal. They make college life much easier than it seems and more enjoyable. The campus is well structured, containing many programs that offer help, financially or educational, for the students. As an example, the ACE center helps students who are struggling with certain subjects within their classes. Each staff member is well trained and every subject is covered within the ACE center. Thank You!
NVCC is a great college to start out with. There are plenty knowledgeable and helpful professors at this school that understand how much of an undertaking college can be. This really helps alleviate some of the stressors associated with going to college and helps students focus on what's really important. Some classes may be cancelled though due to low interest or only being taught a certain semester, which can make it difficult to complete a specific certificate or degree in a timely manner. In addition, the financial aid department could be more helpful. However, there are some great advisors willing to help students navigate that process.
This college isn't just a community it is a home. Taking a semester off lead me to apply to Naugatuck CC and I have thrived since! I was a B average non-active highschool student and all of that changed at this college. I maintained a 3.8 average, participated in so many campus activities and opportunities and it has really instilled maturity and growth. The faculty has been so helpful inside and outside of the classes, they care about their pupils. This college is a community that has your back, its a community that cars about your personal journey and is an amazing starting or continuing point to higher education.
