When I originally decided to pursue postsecondary education I chose to attend university and was very disappointed. I just felt like a “number” that was just passing through. Transitioning to Niagara College I have a completely different perspective. Not only do we interact with more hands-on approaches, but I find the teachers always give their 100% all the time and are always willing to help or point you in the right direction. Deciding to attend NC changed my perspective on school and I enjoy attending labs and classes more so than I ever have before in a school setting. I am glad I chose to attend Niagara College!
