Unless you are someone who has a decent amount of discipline to take virtual classes, do not take online classes. I took a couple throughout my past years at Northwest, and I did not really enjoy them. I got easily distracted, forgot things, and would occasionally get burned out. I honestly feel more compelled to come to class for a face-to-face interaction with my professors. With online courses, you almost have to self-learn the material you are given on your school's assignment website, and that really does not work for me since I feel as if someone else has to teach the material to me. If there are options besides online courses, please consider them!
My experience in Northwest Mississippi Community College so far has been pleasant. The professors in this college are very committed to ensuring each student has a fair chance at education with office hours. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Northwest adhered to CDC guidelines and thoroughly sanitized commonplace areas. Classes normally available in-person were encouraged to be taken online to best social distance. This college gives a university quality education despite being a community college. Though Northwest is an excellent choice, this college can stand to improve the selection of classes offered.
If you are looking for a school to get your general education pre-requisites out of the way, then this is the school for you. Northwest offers a variety of freshman and sophomore level courses that gives students plenty of chances to explore and discover what they really want to study before they transfer to a four-year university. The teachers are funny and are willing to go out of their way to help you out with academic struggles in areas such as mathematics. The school also provides other opportunities for students to catch up on their academic paths with options such as mini-term courses and intersessions. There are also organizations such as Phi Theta Kappa, band, choir, and theater for students who are interested in getting involved in extracurricular activities on campus. Although the quality of social life at the Desoto campus of Northwest is not very good, Senatobia might be able to provide a better social life. For a two year college, go to Northwest.
