Matthew - 10/11/2021

New Mexico Junior College is the institution I am attending for my final two years of high school, as I am part of an Early College program for my school. It has been a wonderful experience and a great opportunity to begin my college career far earlier than I normally could. The facilities are clean, orderly, and maintained. The learning environment is exemplary and the professors excellent. I would strongly recommend this junior college for anyone going for their Associate's degrees.

Kennadee - 11/20/2020

New Mexico junior college is a great place to further your education. The campus is small enough to navigate but big enough for everything that is needed. The professors are very interactive and I have never had a bad experience with anyone. The class sizes are small and allow for great one on one learning and small group study’s that I find very beneficial. Overall New Mexico Junior College is a safe and comfortable learning environment that I have grown to love.

Morgan - 02/25/2020

I love New Mexico Junior College. I am not a huge fan of the town because there is nothing to do here but the college always has some kind of event to keep the students entertained. Although they do not have many sports teams, when it comes to sporting events they are usually fun to attend. I am a transfer student but find that the professors are more caring and work with you when you do not understand things. I am proud to be apart of the NMJC.

Berenice - 12/23/2019

New Mexico junior college is a great start for students to begin higher education. It offers small classes and cheap tuition. There are also many clubs available such as; theater club or an honor society. It’s a nice knit community. The staff and faculty are very helpful.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    I would have given myself the advice to be more prepared than I already was. I tried to prepare myself financially, mentally, etc. for the transition, but being more prepared would have helped greatly. I did not recieve financial aid, so I knew it would be tough, but I believe if I would have started saving up money before my senior year I would have been better off financially. Also, I would say talk to the school counselors more and the teachers in my major in order to become fimiliar with the campus and staff. Knowing the teachers and who to talk to is an important factor in order to stay on track.
