At first I absolutely loved New England College, until I found out they are full of malarkey. It's like most places, you are important until we no longer need you. I have attended New England since January 2010 as graduate student. I have exhausted my student loans attending here because the tuition is very expensive. I recently finished all of my course thanks to Kevin Martin who assisted me with an issue I had. I was getting ready to repeat an entire class for one letter grade. Once the classes were completed;it's like I no longer exist or I am no longer important since my financial aid has ceased with my exit.. I can't get anyone to answer the phone or emails. I asked for job placement assistance because NEC advertises they will assist and the help I got was a link to an NEC website that offered me nothing. I am grateful to God I have graduated but sorry New England is the place I graduated from. I almost convinced my daughter to transfer here but I am glad I saw the realness of the organization before that happened.

Thank you to the staff whose character live up to the...
Read moreStarted my educational journey at NEC around 2017 so some information might be dated. Multiple programs completed here over the years, and have been considering enrolling in another one.

Folks have asked me if this is a real school as it's not as well known- and I'm glad to say it's very real, with a very lovely campus right next to Pat's Peak where I personally learned to snowboard over the years. If you've seen info somewhere for the school's online programs: book an intro call. It'll...
Read moreThe college itself might be ok, but the company they use to handle their online classes, Bisk, is absolutely terrible. TERRIBLE. Will never attend another school handled through Bisk. EVER. NEC's online classes were hit or miss. A few had really amazing professors who you could tell truly loved their job. The discussions and assignments were college level and what you would expect. Others professors seemed to be there just to collect a pay check and the class felt more like high school than college. Additionally, you can expect to be thrown in with students who would have benefited from some remedial courses before being thrown into standard classes. At best I felt like I was attending a dingy, sub-par community college. Wouldn't recommend, especially if you really want to...
