I enjoy the outdoor social spaces and the beauty. The professors are excellent, and they help me understand my homework, and the tutors are a great help. Overall, my opinion regarding staff and the students is concerned; it's pretty good in my book, and I enjoy taking the bus to this campus.

NVC is really a great community college. Campus is clean, relaxing, and there are tons of activities. The instructors tend to be very accommodating and personable and really make the learning experience fun. One major drawback are the advisors. You are lucky to be able to speak to one and it's a miracle if you can meet with one.

Nope! I don't recommend it at all, they don't care about students. in my opinion, I was expecting better but maybe it's just covid.

I've attended NVC since 2019 and it's honestly been a nightmare. It's a lottery whether or not an instructor or faculty member will actually be competent in the material they're teaching. A lot of curriculum seems to cut corners to save money, with ridiculous amounts of homework. Social activities feel off. I would consider any other school in SA.
