Ashley - 05/06/2019

I'm very impressed with this school. I'm very grateful for the overwhelming amount of support from faculty. I've developed a bond with some of my professors and I'm so grateful for their wisdom as I had some trouble balancing work, life, and school. I'm also very pleased with the ease of the online courses that I have taken.

Sophie - 02/12/2018

For my purposes-gaining credit while in my gap year-North Shore Community College has served me well. I would most likely not, however seek a degree from here. The classes are good for elementary/fundamental skill building, but lack a level of deeper thinking and analysis seen in most upper-level educational institutes. That being said, the price is great and the professors seem to really care about their students.
