Student Ratings
Jennifer Washington Student at This School - Grad Year 2015
I love the staff at North Lake College. They are very helpful and explain all the work the detail. The student body is very friendly and outgoing which is a big change from my school last semester. Nobody wanted to help me last semester and I felt so alone. At North Lake I always wake up wanting to get to class and know that I will have a fun learning day.
