Northeast Mississippi Community College is a great community college. The teachers are very friendly and they always try to be available to us as much as they possibly can. The school itself also makes sure that as many universities can come as possible.
Cameron - 02/02/2020
I greatly enjoy my time here at Northeast. If anything, I am a little sad to go. I am comfortable on campus, and I like my classes. The professors are great and can be reached pretty easily. The classroom size is roughly around 30 students, depending on the subject, making it easy to make friends and connect to others.
Brandon - 05/03/2019
NEMCC is my first college experience. As a small community college, it allowed for excellent student and teacher interaction. I live on campus and feel that the living facility and other student areas are well maintained. I have had an excellent experience at NEMCC and would recommend this college to anyone who is pursuing higher education.
Taylor - 04/16/2019
I have enjoyed my time at NEMCC.
Katianne - 03/06/2019
I went to a small 2A school in high school. Even though this school is relatively small, it seems huge to what I was used to in high school. It is a perfect transitioning school; so Universities aren't so overwhelming. The teachers care, but don't baby you. They are understanding on a professional level. The four day school week is a major plus as well. It gives students time to work a job or have a break to study and catch up on homework. I am happy with my decision of staying at Northeast.
Shelby - 05/08/2018
NEMCC is a great school. The students and teachers are all so nice. You are missing out if you don’t come here. The campus is very well taken care of and the place has high security and you are always safe. The food is the best part. Three meals a day and they even have some special food occasions for finals and other things.
Amelia - 04/05/2018
Going to college has always been one of my biggest dreams. In 2018 I got to expierence college for the first time, at Northeat Mississippi Community College. The teacher and professor were great, they taught us and welcomed us like a family. I am so glad Northeast Mississippi Community College accepted me and let me attend. I can’t wait to get a degree and begin my journey of life.
Cassidy - 03/13/2018
I have truly enjoyed my experience thus far. The staff has been amazing and I couldn’t imagine a better place to start my college career.
Miriam - 02/09/2018
It is a very good school and it has definitely made a difference in my life. I have been given some once in a lifetime opportunities and have made some life long friends that I will treasure forever. The class sizes are somewhat like a regular highschool class size, therefore I feel more comfortable in the classroom.
callie - 10/13/2017
Overall it is an amazing community college. Lots of things to do around campus and organizations to be a part of. Very safe campus. Definitely got me prepared to transfer to a four year university. Teachers always willing to help you out. Great library that allows youth study with people or quietly.
Christopher - 07/28/2017
Northeast is a great way to begin the educational process for those not ready to attend a four year institution. While there are many reasons a student might not be ready, Northeast enables all students to develop by providing a supportive atmosphere and helpful teachers.
Montana - 07/22/2017
I love this college! It has been the best of the best for a while now. The college has excellent food and courses to take for any career. The administration would help anyone with any questions and they dont act like they have somewhere else to be. This college is by far the best.
Hannah - 06/23/2017
It's great. I love it. Campus is fairly safe. Academics is great. Staff are very helpful. Most classes transfer well. They offer plenty of extracurricular programs. There are plenty of opportunities to showcase your abilities.There is school pride. It's a great school to give you a good and cheaper start. You can experience school your way (within reasonable safety parameters).
Lizette - 04/07/2017
NEMCC is a small campus but it's a great start to the whole Education process! It is a great school and very cheap! I love how all the classes are about 20-30 students in the class. NEMCC is a great school! All the classes can, and will, challenge you to think.

What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
If I were to go back in time to see myself as a senior I would have several pieces of advice I would give me. The first of which would be to work hard on finding all the money you can. I would explain to myself that it's much easier applying for scholarships as a senior than as a college student and there are more for graduating seniors. I would also tell myself that I better be prepared for a long hard road. I would tell myself that college is far harder than high school ever was. Another thing I would tell myself is to always start one's college day off at eight so that you don't have to get there earlier than you need to just get a parking spot. I would also tell myself not to take Miller's class because I'm never sure when I should be taking notes. Overall, I'm not really surprised by how college is different. I honestly don't think there's many things I could have told myself to make it any different, but if I had the chance that is what I would tell myself.
Describe how your school looks to someone who's never seen it.
If I had to describe my school in one sentence I would say it was a good choice for a starting point in furthering my education in the field of study I have chosen, it is a smaller, although growing, college but has lots to offer todays college students.
What's the most frustrating thing about your school?
The most frustrating thing about NEMCC is the lack of updated technology to learn the current or even advanced systems that are out there. For example, the computer apps. class is still learning on Windows XP, when the current one has made 2 advancements in their systems. It feels we are behind in the world before we've even started.
It is a great community college. Faculty and students are friendly and welcoming. The class are challenging but teachers help you out as much as they can.
The best thing about school is the challenge. School challenges in many ways by allowing students to be independant for the first time, by giving tougher assignments, and by giving a jump-start on our careers.
What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
The worst thing about this college is probably its location. The school is located in the middle of nowhere. It is from any big town. This makes it so that there is not much to do around campus. There are no movie theatres, bowling alleys, or anything for many miles from the campus. The absense of stuff to do makes the campus and town a very plain and boring place which is the worst thing about the school.
What kind of person should not attend this school?
A person who doesn't intend to study and work hard shouldn't go to this college. Even though people might think that community colleges are a breeze one must be prepared to do work. Someone who is lazy and doesn't care about school just won't make it at Northeast. It's not a super hard college but it isn't super easy either. People who aren't prepared for the long road ahead shouldn't go to this school.
What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?
The thing I brag about most is the teachers there. They are friendly and are always wanting to help you in any way they can. If you have a question about anything they do there best to answer your question so that you can understand.
