| Mission | |
| School mission: | New England College is a place where students amaze themselves with what they learn and with what they can accomplish. A college that prepares students for the professional world, NEC also empowers its graduates with a broad knowledge base that results from a focus on the liberal arts. The institution prides itself on its individualized approach to learning and is committed to maintaining its small size and student-to-teacher ratio. The College's special strength lies not only in what it teaches, but how it teaches, providing students with both traditional classroom and hands-on learning opportunities. The Pathways Center, an innovative combination of academic advising, study skills and support services, and career planning, plays a key role in the academic and professional achievements of all students. Thus, NEC graduates are extremely successful in finding employment upon graduation. New England College's location offers students the best of all worlds. Students have easy access to vibrant cities (Concord, Manchester, Portsmouth, and Boston) while they enjoy the incomparable recreation and wilderness regions of Hew Hampshire. All NEC students may ski free of charge at Pats Peak, one of New Hampshire's fine ski mountains, located only 3 miles from campus. |
