Branding Guidelines

What is a brand?

A brand is more than just a logo or a tagline. Branding encompasses every aspect of the College’s identity—from logos, the website, and other visual representations to print publications such as flyers, brochures, and advertisements, as well as every interaction the College has with students, parents, visitors, and the broader public. Every individual in the NCC community is a brand ambassador for the College.

Why is branding important?

Branding creates and maintains a consistent, professional image to both our internal and external audiences. A clear and compelling brand helps people recognize our commitment to quality and value, encourages them to seek us out as an excellent place to study and work, and inspires them to invest in our future.

NCC’s brand guidelines are designed to ensure consistency and coherence in how the Nassau Community College brand is presented across all channels and touchpoints. By following these guidelines, we present a unified and professional NCC brand that resonates with our audiences and supports our mission.
