NWSCC has a wonderful staff and professors that assisted me in all aspects of my educational journey. The class sizes are small which enables a student to be engaged during lectures, discussing questions and ideas in the classroom settings. Each professor is very accessible and willing to help. They want their students to be successful.
The school offers different events for students to be engaged in the campus life such as Spring Fling. As an ambassador, I have gained experience as a leader as well. This program has given me opportunities to volunteer my time giving back to the community and to others. It has allowed me the opportunity to meet new people and make lasting friendships. I will forever be grateful for my time there and all the opportunities that were afforded to me.

I really love going to Northwest Shoals! The teachers are easy to work with and they make sure you never struggle. I am very thankful for the teachers I've had so far. Although, I wish they advertised for things going on, on campus a little more so people could socialize, I am glad I chose to go to Northwest Shoals.
I was very nervous for the transition from high school to college. I wasn’t sure as to what I was wanting to major in, so I chose to go to Northwest Shoals to get some basic classes out of the way. It was a very good choice. The overall atmosphere of the school was very comforting and my first day was not nerve racking at all! All the professors were extremely nice and helpful! Northwest Shoals is a great college for beginners!
