    NWFSC has given me the education and skills to complete the registered nursing program in 2019 and the path to succeed in earning a nursing degree (BSN) in 2020. Overall, the program has provided real experiences in nursing, above average teaching with practice and goal/education center pathways to achievement. Some professors could enable more clear teachings by following structured material rather than venture teaching. Go Raiders!

    Everything about this college is great the professors, staff and other students. They professors seem really committed to helping all of the students achieve the best grade possible. Personally I love the different events and clubs that are held on campus. For example, we just had our annual Fall Festival and it was so much fun! There blown up games, face paint, food and it was all free. The college also puts on a career day which can come in handy to those in need of a few extra bucks.
    Northwest Florida State College is a great college with great teachers and academics, and I was able to finish my Associates degree with an idea of what I wanted to study for my Bachelors. There isn't much to do on campus, except go to the gym or cafeteria. But overall, it is a good school to attend!
