5 Students rated Northwest Indian College

Natasha - 07/25/2024

I enjoy having the opportunity to further my education, so close by. And I feel very safe at the campus. I would definitely recommend attending college classes at NWIC. The professors, and student advisor's are great, super helpful. I am excited to return back to NWIC, and finish obtaining my associates degree. So far, I have 38 credits toward my degree. This time around, my life; in general, is changed. EVERYTHING about my life, has changed, and I am ready to finish. I have accepted the amount of grief and loss, my family and I have endured, and I am clear minded.

Jason - 08/09/2019

Northwest college is above my standards especially with the lack of equipment and large funding like regular universities. I believe their professors are knowledgeable in their expertise and they always try and make themselves available. Housing is awesome as well. They have a great staff that really cares about your well being and education.

Akasha - 04/08/2019

I've had an absolutely daunting time trying to get adjusted, but the whole team here at Northwest Indian College are so active in being support and help for each student.

MICHAEL - 03/16/2019

My major is actually Tribal Governance & Business Management, and I am only a few quarters away from graduating with my Bachelors Degree! I love the NWIC campus, but take most of my classes through their excellent Video Conferencing, distant learning classes. It is amazing that we can utilize technology to take classes anywhere and still have the classroom feel, interaction, and collaboration with other students. I have loved attending this college and it will be bittersweet when I graduate and move on to a Masters Degree. I would recommend NWIC to any student, but especially looking for an Associates or Bachelor Degree in business management, environmental science, or cultural sovereignty.

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

    If I was able to go back in time and give myself advice as a senior in high school, I would tell myself that education is important in life and it's easy if you put your mind to it. I know that it may seem like it's a waste of time but if you further your education you can achieve your goals and become anything that you want to be and do what ever you want to do as a career. All you have to do is study the career by going to a school where they offer the program and graduating. High school is going to go by quickly, four years may seem like a long time but it's going to pass by as if it were months. It's hard being in foster care so far away from your family but you should be focusing on school. School will always be provided to you and there are ways to pay for college if you don't have the money. People will help you and all you have to do is try. You have a lot of potential, everything will fall in place along the way.
