Ranch Horse Versatility

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.

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

What I like best about Northeastern are the very friendly and supportive people that study and work there. As a soccer player, we also have a very bonded team and I really like the combination of competitiveness and help that we offer each other. For students that think about coming to Northeastern you can expect all of these things. Speaking as an international student, you will have an amazing experience here and one you won't regret!

I love taking care of people. Knowing that I have made a difference in a person's life or just made their day a little bit warms my heart.

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.
