I am a sophomore at NJC. Concurrent enrollment has made a positive impact in my academic pursuit. Not only did it give me a jumpstart on college classes in high school, it has also decreased the financial burden of college.

The opportunities that come along with concurrent enrollment have also been a great help in my college success. Developing a connection with some of my future teachers, NJC employees, and other students paved the way for an easy transition from high school to college.

With encouragement from my concurrent enrollment connections, I have become heavily involved on campus and was elected to be the current Associative Student Government President along with other leadership rolls.  I am so glad I had access to concurrent enrollment classes, it has certainly bettered my academic and college experience.
