Northwestern Conn. Comm. College

Search Winsted Connecticut

Founded in 1965 by Winsted residents, Northwestern is one of the first three community colleges in Connecticut. The College offers Associate degree programs in preparation for transfer to four-year institutions, as well as occupationally-oriented Associate degree and Certificate programs. Short-term, non-credit courses, seminars and workshops, as well as targeted student services also help satisfy community and personal enrichment needs.

The less formal academic setting of the community college acts as a less threatening preparation for young students in need of academic nurturing, counseling, tutoring and guidance before enrolling in an educational setting requiring more self-sufficiency and focus.

The 2-year community college experience is also a less expensive way to complete the first two years of a four year study program.
