Residence Advisors
Residence Advisors are full-time NWCC students whose primary responsibility is to make sure that each and every person in the community has a fantastic residence experience. They are trained to facilitate events and activities to help you meet new people in residence and to build a strong community. They can be great friends and fantastic resources. There is one RA assigned to each residence. Your RA should be the first person you talk to if you have a question, comment or concern.
Food Services
Students who reside in the NWCC Residence are encouraged to make use of our campus cafeteria, which is open Monday through Friday. It has been estimated that the average student spends $300 - $350 per month on food. In order to offer students some relief against food costs, the College offers a discounted rate on the purchase of meal tickets valued at $100 or more. Under this plan, students are able to purchase meal tickets with a minimum value of $100 at 95% of their face value (i.e., a student can obtain $100 worth of meal tickets for $95). Meal tickets at lower values are available, but the discount does not apply.
Kitchen and Laundry
Each floor is equipped with a kitchen area that includes a microwave, fridge, and freezer. Laundry facilities are also provided on each floor of each residence, and are free of charge.
Lounge Area
There are two lounge areas per building. These lounges have TV's with DVD/VCR, and a local telephone. They provide a great common area for gathering!
Phone and Internet
Each residence has a coin operated telephone as well as a local phone in each lounge. The local phone is free of charge for local calls, and long distance calls can be received on all numbers. Each residence is equipped with high speed wireless.
Parking
Parking is free of charge, and conveniently located next to the residence buildings.
