Categories Comments Bang for the buck NEC definitely helps with financing the education here. They seem to also putting money towards good use like building a new turf field
Am enjoying being here I have found that a lot of people seem to go home on weekends and there is not a lot of weekend life especially if you don't party.
Am learning a lot As a freshman I found my classes very easy especially coming from a high school that had very rigorous academics. Having classes that were easy at times was nice because it wasn't as stressful and helped with the transition.

Categories Comments Campus Safety When you need campus safety and it is an emergency they are right there and do not wait till they are ready. Also with campus safety they are protective over the students so if it is late and your walking alone or from student parking lot they would give you a ride to your dorm so they know that you are safe.
Clubs and Activities I would say that this school is supportive in everything that is hosted here. When it comes to sports they really are and encourage everyone else to also come to support the team or anything that is going on for that day.
What to do for fun New England college is in a little town there is nothing you can really do unless you have a car which most people that come here do.
Food and Dining The food here can be okay, but the dining closes early, and sometimes they cook the same thing in the same week. Also we get flex cash and which is depended on the meal plan you choose. Flex cash is you ca spend the money on your i.d. at the cafe on campus and once that is gone either you can put money on it or you have to wait till next semester.
Tips for prospective students If you need any help make sure you go to the library for tutor seasons that are already set-up. Make sure you go to class especially the lectures and labs because it is hard to make up or get notes. Also make sure you come prepared to learn and not just mess around.
In three sentences I would say New England College is a diversity school. It knows how to do things to get people to interact with the community. It also has all the help you need when it comes to school work.

Categories Comments What to do for fun I used to play ping pong with my friends in my free time. I always miss the fun part in NEC because i always commute from home so. But i would say campus students do more fun than commuters.
Food and Dining Honestly speaking food and dining is excellent in New England College. I knew because i went to New England College Gilmore several times to eat lunch. I had ate many good and fresh foods. It is better than cafe sometime if you are very hungry.
Dorm Life Honestly speaking i am very unknown about the dorm life because i commute from my home. I live in concord, New Hampshire with my family members. But seeing from outside dorm life is very good as i known so far form my friends. I used to go there with my friends in their room and hang out sometimes. Dorm life is so far so good.
Academic Rigor Being a second year student of New England College i would rate NEC 9 out of 10. NEC covered almost all academic majors with more than 1200 students. Students are free to choose their majors or they can keep their major undecided. They can first study Liberal arts science classes first or study together.
Tips for prospective students I would like to tell them to go and visit New England College once. Please schedule an appointment and do a college tour with one of our students or staff. Please go to some classes and introduce with some professors and tell little bit about your self and interests, And, also please get some recommendations from them.
In three sentences New England College is a great platform for every student to complete their degrees. All professor and staff are very friendly with students and every one can get chance to know each student. Professor can talk with individual student in a class while teaching due to the less population in a class. I love New England College because i am a ESL student and i found many supporters to support me.

Categories Comments Clubs and Activities There are options for everything and if there is something you want to start the office of student involvement will help with anything!
Great for these types of students Students that generally need to talk one on one with professors or who prefer a small town feel.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus We have a covered bridge within walking distance!
Dorm Life It really depends on where you're living. Freshman dorms are always loud.
Tips for prospective students Don't mess with Professor Nagelsen.
In three sentences New England College is a small campus with a real sense of community. Small class sizes allow professors to give each individual student one on one attention. I would recommend it for those students looking for a smaller campus.

Categories Comments Food and Dining There is decent food and dining. There are a couple local restaurants within walking distance. Pretty good for college food.
Dorm Life Some dorms are really nice. With the dorms you really get what you pay for. If you want the cheapest dorm then you will be in the oldest dorm building. If you want a nicer dorm they will put you in the recently renovated dorms.
Academic Rigor The classes are hard but manageable.
Tips for prospective students If you enjoy one on one with teachers this the place for you! The absolute largest class I have ever heard about here was about 60 kids. Most classes are between 20-30 kids.
In three sentences Placed in small adorable town where everyone is friendly! The classes have a small number of students which allows the professor to engage with each individual on a deeper level. Plenty of opportunities here!
