Northwest Vista is an incredible college with a beautiful campus. There are some really incredible professors employed at Northwest Vista College. In particular, Robert DiGiovanni was an excellent professor who made himself available by phone via call or text! He had excellent pre-recorded videos prior (many years prior) to covid. His methodologies of working through problems were superb. I think that he is reflective of most of the professors I had at Northwest Vista College. The great thing about Northwest Vista college is that it is one of five other 2 year universities within the Alamo Colleges umbrella. This means that you have a massive selection of professors, as well as online options. The prices of courses within the Alamo Colleges system are outstanding. If you want quality for an affordable price, please check out Northwest Vista and the rest of the colleges within the Alamo College System.
With NVC being a smaller school, the interactions you have with both other students and professors are more personal. I have had great experiences with professors who truly care about accommodating their students and go above and beyond to make sure their students receive everything they need. My expectations for NVC were exceeded. Two-year community colleges often don't have much to offer their students, but NVC does! There are many extracurricular clubs to join to get more connected. Northwest Vista is very affordable while maintaining the quality of education and the college experience.
Northwest Vista College is a beautiful campus with an awesome lake in the middle. The teachers there make learning fun and love to interact with the students as well as get them involved with extracurricular activities.
On top of that, there is a lot of resources, including library, computer lab, math lab, rooms to book for group projects and more. There is always someone to help you out, whether it be tutoring or utilizing resources.
Overall, I was really nervous for my first year of college in Fall 2019, however, the professors and administration made me positive that this college was one of the best schools to be at!
