School Description
Provided by Neosho County Community CollegeThe mission of Neosho County Community College is to enrich our communities and our students' lives.
Neosho County Community College will grow and expand through serving students with innovative, creative programs based on leadership and excellence in faculty and administration and become the premier community college in Kansas.
The college was founded in 1936 as Chanute Junior College. In 1965, the name was changed to Neosho County Community Junior College, and a bond issue was passed to build the current campus. In 1980, the word "junior" was removed from the name of the College.
Neosho County Community College offers associate degrees, as well as many certificate programs. Our most popular vocational programs are nursing and medical assisting. The majority of our students attend NCCC with the intention of transferring to a four-year college or university upon completion of their associate's degree.
Over 2000 students attend NCCC each semester. About 1000 of these students attend full-time. 93% of our students are Kansas residents. The other 7% come from all across the United States and the world. Approximately 750 students attend our Chanute campus, 750 attend our Ottawa campus, and over 400 students take classes on-line. The remaining students take courses at one of our outreach sites.
NCCC has two main locations: a residential campus in Chanute, Kansas, and a campus serving Ottawa, Kansas. Chanute is a city of 10,000 located in the rural southeast corner of Kansas. Chanute is less than two hours from Wichita, Kansas City, Topeka, and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Ottawa is a city of 12,000 located in north central Kansas and is just one-half hour from Lawrence and Kansas City.
Neosho County Community College
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaNeosho County Community College (also called NCCC) is located in Chanute, Kansas, USA and a secondary campus is located in Ottawa, Kansas. NCCC began in 1936 as Chanute junior college for graduates of high school. In 1961, due to state legislators Chanute Junior College included both Neosho County and Franklin County. This is when it was renamed NCCC. Approximately 1800 students attend the NCCC campuses as of 2006.
Chanute Campus
Unlike some other community colleges which don't offer housing, The Chanute Campus of NCCC requires students to live on campus and have a dinner plan. This campus is more designed for full-time traditional students. It is also the larger of the two campuses.
The Ottawa campus is different from Chanute campus in that the former has no housing available. This campus is more designed for part-time nontraditional students, though significant numbers of traditional students also attend this campus.
