If you are a non-traditional student like me, Northern Essex will give you the opportunity to get your education while also preparing you for your career and/or future degrees. Northern Essex is very welcoming and offers help for anything you need. I had some amazing times here as a student and am so happy to have landed my first professional career here in the STEM Department!

Overall, I was very pleased with my time at Northern Essex. The faculty and staff are all incredibly helpful and kind and truly want their students to succeed. The professors are always willing to help. I've built wonderful, lifelong friendships here and even though it's just a Community College, there are always fun activities that are run by Student Government. Volleyball and basketball games are also fun to attend!

Online learning is manageable, but virtual learning due The Pandemic has it's drawbacks. As a student in the Radiologic Technology program at Northern Essex Community College, most of the didactic learning experience has been virtual, something I am not used to. As for the clinical experience, it has been stressful. I am a brick-and-mortar student; I personally prefer to sit in the classroom physically socializing my my peers. Virtual learning feels robotic. I am a student who prefers to make personal connections where sometimes a pat on the back or a high-five are needed for me to succeed even momentarily. Clinical has been especially difficult due to the restrictions put in place that each employee has to comply with. Being cognizant of staying 6 feet apart, covering a cough even wearing a mask, and wiping down chairs took about two months to get used to especially with the limited time while at clinical. But meeting new patients daily making sure they feel safe has been rewarding.
