    Northeast Alabama Community College is one of the best decisions I have ever made. It is such a safe, affordable, fun college! I would have not chosen to go anywhere else. The small student to teacher ratio is perfect for one on one tutoring sessions and help. The free tutoring center is such a great thing for students! The tutors are extremely helpful and nice. The staff in general are a closely connected and extremely willing to talk and help all students. The campus is a very safe, fun, and wonderfully clean environment! NACC is very affordable and has wonderful scholarships and financial aid available to every student! Every program is well equipped with technology and correct text.I highly recommend Northeast Alabama Community College to everyone intending to further his/her education after high school/GED. I adore my school!

    This college is very laid back and a great place to start right out of high school. the library has a great selection and is a peaceful place to study, academic advisors are a hit or miss. Some are great and very helpful and others are virtually clueless. Overall I have greatly enjoyed my time attending this college and I would recommend it to high school students looking for dual enrollment opportunities or to local students returning home from 4 year universities that would like to take classes in the summer.
    As a freshman, I find NACC very accommodating to it's students in providing various student activities such as study skills sessions and extracurriculars. The staff is very friendly in giving support and help to the students working to obtain a higher education. The professors are actively asking for input from their students in order to help the students learn in the classrooms. The use of vending machines are great for both the staff and students witth little time in between classes or work. Overall, I am very pleased with the set up of the campus, it's workers, and the environment.
