Alex - 05/19/2016

The New England School of Communication has merged with Husson University to produce a school of excellent quality with a wide range of courses between business and nursing with Husson and Audio and Video with NESCOM. This allows for student to enjoy the full range of benefits offered by Husson University while also learning from the brightest minds in their skill at NESCOM. There are many benefits from this merger, but it also inherently absorbs all of the problems of Husson University. these include ghetto dorms and a standardization of education that is hit and miss. However, aside from the Husson merger, NESCOM is a superb school filled to the brim with active professionals with years of experience under their belts. Almost every class you take (except Computer Apps cough cough) is completely relevant and interesting, allowing you to dive directly into your field of study. Personally I enjoyed the fact that there was near immediate hands on learning, working with the consoles to familiarize yourselves with the basic concepts to be latter expanded upon. This is by far it's selling point, at least with me, as with other schools you might be lectured for 2 years and then touch the consoles in the later stages, and personally information not executed disappears. Overall, it is a great community of people that have years of experience in their fields that will help you with any trouble you have if you seek them out. A great school and perhaps the best in all of New England for anything even remotely related to audio or video.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    The college experience has many good and bad aspects to it. My Freshman year I learned about patience, persistence and being proactive. I had a very bad experience with my first roommate that required a college Dean to get involved. Thanks to being placed in a new room with a new roommate, I had the opportunity to make friends with a whole new set of people. That experience reminded me that life is full of challenges and it is up to us, as individuals to put a positive spin on things.

  5. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    We are best known for our GREAT communication, audio and video programs. We just had a few students compete and come in third (after traveling to California) in the CRZ competition. We are known for being a hands on school, even if you are just a freshman, there are so many thing you can be involved in just to get your name and work ethic out there. NESCom is definitely also known for our already broad experiences by the time we take our internships and our hard work.
