REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingI learned a lot already as a dual enrolled student and now as a full time current student. So many degrees to choose from and many choices for electives. The teachers here are amazing and most are willing to work with you one on one or help set up tutoring which is FREE.

Joshua from Rathdrum, ID
I have really appreciated NIC especially because it is smaller, so you actually can get to know teachers and get the help that you need. I have gone in to ask teachers to explain a concept to me, and they have been very helpful in answering my inquiries.
Susanna from the Coeur d' Alene area

Sarah from Spirit Lake, ID
North Idaho is a great place to go to college to figure out what you want to do if you don't already know, or to just knock out those core classes. This place has everything!! It's a beautiful place as well as the people here are so nice and welcoming.
