Honors Program

The Northeastern Junior College Honors Program consists of students who possess exceptional leadership and academic abilities.

These individuals encompass a diverse variety of degree tracks within Northeastern, however each student expresses their academic ambition through coursework that caters to their specific degree. Members of this program will work individually or in small groups with the program advisor, as well as a full-time faculty within their discipline, in order to create a project which caters to their interests and future. This is the Honors Student’s upper level course work, which provides the student with the ability to go above and beyond the work currently done in classes to further enrich their college experience. Other elements of the course include advocacy projects, fundraising, campus improvements projects, and an Honors Symposium.

As a student, I have loved how much the teachers care about you. They want you to succeed in whatever you want to do and are always willing to help. It makes it much easier to cope with change and classes that aren't your strong suit.

I come from a small community so it was a smooth transition from high school to Northeastern.

Seeing how the NJC shop compared to his high school shop was mind blowing.
