When I first started NCC back in 2015 I didn't know what to expect. This College has helped me developed all of my skills. I am very appreciated for all the people I met at this college including : staff members, professors, and classmates and crew-mates. The ABT and HIT program has the best people In the whole campus but thats just y opinion.

NCC has superlative opportunities if you take the time to research and network with students, faculty and administration. Every semester, I met life changing professors who opened doors for me. I worked hard and left with a full ride scholarship to a local four year and also acceptance into Columbia. NCC is a great springboard but the food is meh.

please be careful when you enroll for classes at this school, I enrolled for an accounting class online they change the prof. one month after semester started, and we ended up with the worst prof. harsh, and lazy, and very disorganized. be very careful you will be losing your money or worst getting an awful grade.

Worst place ever to attend literally go anywhere else not only are the instructors useless the administration and counselors are too. Dont waste money go anywhere else. If I could give straight 0s as a rating this school would get it.
Overall 1.1
There are no words to describe just how awful this place is. Bad in every way imaginable. Faculty, administration, student services, etc. The saddest part is that the people that work there think they're the greatest thing since sliced bread when in fact they are just terrible. Don't waste your time there. Go anyplace else.

had to go here cause i transferred. I absolutely hate ncc and its a struggle to find motivation to go to class. Parking is mediocre- leave early to get a semi decent spot. professors ive had were all jokes. waste of time. would have stayed until i got my associates but after one semester i had enough and im going somewhere else in the fall.

Nursing program is HORRIBLE. The professors for nursing suck. They don't care if they are giving you accurate information or not. You'll just waste your time and money with this program. Go to a school that will give you a good education for nursing, NOT NASSAU. AVOID AVOID AVOID!
Overall 1.4
Teachers suck and the school sucks the entire place is a waste of time and energy and money
Overall 1.5
The nursing program and the professors are horrible. The only thing they care about is the NCLEX exam and how great their passing rates are because they make money off it. They don't teach you how to be nurses nor do they care about the long term outcome of not teaching students the important skills to be a nurse.
Overall 1.5
Be real careful.

Very unorganized and depressing

This school is useless do not go here. Go to Farmingdale instead. I transferred almost 8 months ago and there are still things that Nassau needs to send or do for my new school and no one there is of any help. The deans are useless and grumpy, most employees here hate their jobs and their lives. Poorly run and overall a big waste of time.
