Loved my time here!

If you really want to meet people and find the parties, there all over and the bars all around Naperville are so close to campus that are usually overpacked with people from various locations. So finding a good time is all over this campus you just have to be willing to find it and find those people trust me. This school has it all.

This school is truly full of knowledgeable and distinguished science professors. The new science center building is off the charts and the location of the school is in the safest and most social Chicago suburbs. Just lookup the demographics of Naperville and youll understand what Im talking about. Dorming is a must to fully enjoy the social lif

NCC is a great school for people looking to learn, meet new people, and live in a close- knit community with lots of opportunities and facilities. The only things I may complain about at times are the internet connection, which can lag sometimes, and the food at the main dining hall because I never knew how easy it was to mess up pancakes or eggs.

The administration and most of the teachers at the school are horrible and offer very little help. It seems that most of the teachers don't care about the students and that goes double for administrative staff. Not worth the thousands of dollars your going to spend to go there.

The administration and most of the teachers at the school are horrible and offer very little help. It seems that most of the teachers don't care about the students and that goes double for administrative staff. Any time I called to get an answer to a question i got a voice mail which were never returned. not worth the money.

I'm only here because I have to be. Most of what keeps me going on a day to day basis is that this is only temporary and I get to get out of here in a couple short months.

Multiple staff members have sent me into panic attacks, I've received little to no help with anything despite desperately searching for it time and time again, and have been interrupted and insulted by a woman at the financial aid desk every time I called there to try and set something straight. Also, the food tastes awful and is awful for you.
