    I got a lot of support at NWRC. I enjoy college life more than school because it offers greater freedom and you are treated like an adult.

    My time at the College has been amazing. The tutors are so helpful and encouraging, even in these difficult times where things are anything but normal. I can not recommend this course enough for anyone who has a passion for Art and Design!
