[My NSC Story

I didn't always feel that NSC was a place where I was going to fit in and adjust well. However, I've recently started my second semester here, and I feel at home every time I walk through those doors in the morning.

I originally chose NSC based on two reasons:
1) The tuition was within my budget.
2) The class sizes are small, and I learn better in that environment.

Now, I realize NSC offers a chance for me to grow as a person and push myself as a student. I've started a club on campus that focuses on leadership and community service, and I'm enjoying all of my classes. NSC is the perfect place for me, and I"m happy I chose to go here.

My name is Lisa Yee and this is MY NSC STORY!

[I grew up in a working class, paycheck to paycheck family. Needless to say money has always been tight and hals always been a question we need to ask when doing something. When we arrived in Las Vegas, my family and I looked at UNLV and came to the conclusion that it was simply unaffordable. To receive a Bachelors degree in Nursing was going to cost a great amount of money. It wasn't until I found NSC and their nursing program that I started to believe, maybe I could afford school and get my degree. If it wasn't for the affordable 4 year programs this school offers I would not be in school. I would be working 40 hours and that's it. To take away this school you would be ripping my dreams away. A dream, that for once in my life, I believe is attainable and could come true.

Student Profiles - Jessica Romero and Marianne Re!




[ My NSC Story!

I guess you can say I'm kind of above average when it comes to education. I went to baby genius schools when I was three, private schools for elementary school, and then a -somewhat- prestigious high school (Las Vegas Academy, just so you know). It kind of made sense to attend NSC after these schools. I never pictured myself at giant universities where it's three-hundred kids a class; on the contrary, thirty was more than enough. I didn't want to enroll in any state college that everyone else was going to, either (Sorry, CSN). Nevada State, although new-ish, just seemed to be the best choice for a great education - while being affordable (note: I'm a nanny. We don't make much). Simply put,
NSC is too cool for school.

[ MY Story!

"Finish high school get your diploma!" is what I was told through my early years. Having met that goal, what's next? Perhaps a well known university with a good rep.? That what I believed I was going to do. But then I was introduced to NSC!! Small unknown school, with few major fields. I was skeptical as to joining a school that was just starting out. But here I am! and I love it. My professors are well informed with their fields, and give you that one-on-one feel everyone looks for. I love NSC. I am NSC.

Sincerely,
Jessica "aka"

[My NSC story is that I'm very grateful to have the opportunity to study and to have start at my future at such a great school with such great teachers. I love this school because it not only gave me an opportunity but helped me even though I have very little to pay they still helped me. This is why I believe what you're doing is wrong and should be thought out a lot better!

♥ Always

Student Profile: Zully Torres





[This is my 2nd year at NSC. I am a mother, wife, and, now, full time student. I may have done many things "backwards" in life, but NSC has provided me with an equal opportunity to get ahead. My classes are great, but my teachers are even greater. I am extrememly grateful for all that NSC has helped me with! I plan to graduate from NSC as a nurse and will be properly prepared to give back to the community that helped me on my own path. Thanks NSC for supporting our dreams!

[If I didn't have NSC I'd probably be lost. NSC helped me grow and mature. I found amazing friends and the professors care so much. I never felt so important in my life. I chose this college because it's personal. The classes are small and the professors are genuinely concerned about us.

As I approach graduation, I feel so confident (in) the workforce. If the school ever closed down, I would be so sad and disappointed. NSC has made wonderful students and excellent professionals. Their students will not have an opportunity to pursue their dreams, and the world will experience these students...

Without NSC, we won't exist....

Student Profile - Dymonde King






[My name is Dymonde King and I love NSC! Small class sizes, close knit community, and opportunity. High School wasn't my thing. I was awkward and out casted, but when I came to NSC I flourished. I made friends with students, teachers, administrators, and alumni. Just walking into school everyday I can see the potential, that's why I joined student government. In NSSA, NSC's Student Government, I learned about the school's budget crisis, and the importance of education. I love this school and I will fight for it any day, all day, every day, because I deserve an education.]
