My experience with NMJC, is one I will never forget, the teachers are amazing and the friends you make here are forever!
Teachers at New Mexico Junior College are always willing to help. Classes aren't so difficult to keep up with and also teachers are always willing to help when you are falling behind or just need help. The campus is located in a good area and the campus itself is always clean. The counselors are great ladies and are always available to help with anything and to set up the best plan for you.
