Welcome to Northwest college

 Northwest is a comprehensive community college with a historical emphasis on diverse transfer programs, select technical programs featuring strong general education components, and total-student development services. General and developmental education are institutional strengths. Top quality education and exceptional student services — Northwest hallmarks — are delivered by devoted faculty and staff staff.

The Northwest experience features personal attention from faculty in small class settings (12:1 student-to-faculty ratio) and extraordinary learning opportunities outside the traditional classroom — international study/travel, student produced literary art magazine, and numerous independent study options. Solid residential life, student development programs, a large international student population and intercultural center, competitive intercollegiate athletics with six NJCAA Division I and two NIRA teams, and dozens of clubs and organizations close the circle for a lively, truly collegiate atmosphere.
