Student Groups at NCTC

You’re welcome to join student groups like Honors Societies and Student Organizations or you can start your own!

 Students that are in student groups improve their leadership skills, meet other students with similar interests, and graduate more often compared to students that are not involved.

 Honors Societies

 

Joining honors societies are great opportunities for students to boost their resume, scholarship applications as well as their personal and professional skills. NCTC has four honors societies.
