    After leaving a small high school, this school was perfect for me. This school is so diverse compared to many colleges around. Also, it is a small campus and you have a better chance of meeting new friends.

    If you are looking to get the most bang for your buck, Highlands is the place to go. Tuition is extremely affordable and the cost of living in Las Vegas is low. You won't find another school that is accredited and is so affordable.
