I am currently employed as a registrar in the Emergency Room at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, where I obtain patients’ demographic and insurance information. Due to COVID-19 however, my team and I have helped out in other ways, too--from Environmental Services, to Hospitality, and even at times as patient care representatives. NCC has prepared me for today with knowledge about the human body and its functions. It has shown me how to challenge myself.

After working eight to 16 hrs per shift, five days a week no one wants to think about school or assignments. But when I logged into my Zoom and saw my fellow students up and ready for class despite the circumstances there was no way I was going to miss any of my classes. As a proud Health Information Technology (HIT) student I can say that NCC's faculty and students have motivated me to continue on despite the challenges that may arise.

I am a Liberal Arts major in my second year at NCC. The biggest reason why I chose Nassau Community College is that I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life after high school and saw NCC as the perfect place to explore that.

I am a marketing major and will graduate in 2025. After a rough start at a large four-year university, I chose to attend Nassau Community College. It has a nice campus, a great community, and besides — my mom went here! My best experience so far has been my in-class presentations.

I transferred to NCC to pursue a degree in Nursing. After some sudden life-changing events I needed to be back home with my family. Nassau was the best educational opportunity for me, especially considering my chosen career path. One of my favorite experiences at the College so far has been forming a sense of community with my peers.

For my first semester of college, I attended a large university out of state. As the semester went on, I was feeling more and more detached from the experience. After some contemplation I decided that coming back home for college would be my best choice.

My major is Biology and I am in my second year at NCC. I originally came to Nassau Community College because of the smaller class sizes and proximity to my home but the terrific faculty and flexible class schedules are great as well. As a science major, I would have to say one of my favorite experiences at Nassau has been the hands-on work that we do in the labs during biology classes.
