Ranch Horse Team

Northeastern Junior College allows advanced and novice western riders and their horses to learn about competing in four western events: cow horse, reining, pleasure and trail.

Ranch Horse Versatility

Through class enrollment, students will learn techniques and skills to compete in collegiate stock horse classes, as well as gain opportunities to show and work with industry clinicians and judges. Northeastern Ranch Horse Versatility also hosts two shows during the academic year. These shows help students acquire basic skills in event management as well as fund the team's show entry fees and travel. This has enabled Northeastern to be one of the only colleges to pay for enrolled students' complete entry and travel expenses.

Enrollment Promises

  • Opportunities to travel to and exhibit in four fall and five spring shows
  • One on one coach evaluation and critique
  • Input from guest clinicians and equine professionals
  • Supportive team environment
  • Funded Entries and Travel based on team fundraising
  • Opportunities to lead on Equine Senate

I choose NJC for its affordability and its rather informal education style. Because it is a small college you have more one on one opportunities with your instructors.

What I like the most about NJC is that my classes are fun and interesting, and I learn something new every day! My professors make the classes fun and engaging, and the information I learn is fascinating.
