Read What Students Are SayingI have a disease, epilepsy, and I feel better since the teachers work around my disability.
Katarina from Monona, IA
If you're fresh out of high school or are trying to get back into school then NICC is a great place to look at. It's not too big or too small of a school with a wide array of classes you can take. I chose to attend here not only because it's affordable but because they offer courses on campus as well as online which fit my schedule very well.
