Northwest State Community College is a small 2-year college in Archbold, Ohio. Corn fields and long county roads are abundant and you'll frequently see students in full camouflage attending class. It's a very serene location, as you'll find with most colleges in rural settings. The college has over 5,000 students whom are pursuing 2 year degrees or certificates, though not enough students attend in order to house a sports team. There's no football, basketball, nor soccer. There's not even a baseball team, for a college located in the middle of an area that is hometown to almost a dozen current MLB players. But, what Northwest State is lacking in extra curricular activities, it makes up for in the quality of the education being given by the staff and had by every student. Not only is the building a diamond in the rough, it's occupants are as well. If any prospective student walks through the doors, and are willing to work for it, they will gain a great education at a manageable price. The main focus of Northwest State's curriculum is job preparedness for graduating sophomores. As a result, students attending Northwest State with the intention of furthering their education may feel as if they were forced to take unnecessary coursework while working towards their respective degrees. I, for one, feel as if some of the required coursework towards my Associate of Arts degree is delaying the fulfillment of my ultimate goal, acquiring my Bachelor's Degree in English from Ohio Northern University. But, with all bias aside, and speaking as a former and current member of the adult workforce in agriculture, manufacturing, and customer service, I can proudly say that I was able to be an integral part of every company to which I've been employed based, in part, on my education from Northwest State.

It is a very nice community college. They offer lots of outside help, and care a lot about their students academic success. There doesn't seem to be a lot to participate in outside of class, but that's alright because a lot of students use this college as a stepping stone to a bigger college.

    Since this scholarship does not include any place for Indian students, I would advice myself to be a part of the US university so that I atleast come into the 'deserving' category, since it seems impossible to reach out to any scholarship sponsor (inspite of being a deserving student, who desperately needs financial help for her education!).

  5. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    You need to work at a fast pace and make sure you get everything done on time and listen to the instructor while they are lecturing and giving out instructions to class, taking notes will help. Dont feel dumb about asking questions, there is no dumb questions. Be on time and ready for class. Try not to miss any classes, and if so make sure you get notes from someone on what you missed the day you were absent. Also, let your teacher know before hand if you aren't going to be in class.

  6. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    The worst thing about my school is some teachers don't help you out as much as others do. They might just think everyone learns the same or they think everyone is learning fine because no one is asking questions, but they need to encourage everyone to ask them.

  7. What kind of person should attend this school?

    NW State is an ideal school for any student. It is a great start for those that are going to further their degree after the two years because it allows the student courses that are cheaper in a community college than at a university. It is also a perfect choice for those with children like myself because the school offers night and weekend classes.

  8. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    There is no one person who should not attend Northwest State. If a student is scared of living by them selves, they don't need to worry. There are lots of students who could use another person to help pay their rent. If driving is and issue, the student can carpool with someone who is living close to where they are living. There are also carpool sign up sheets posted all over the campus to help students find other students to ride with. Of all the students I have talked to at Northwest State, no one has been dissatisfied.
