Grade 11 Students
Are you currently in Grade 11 and planning what comes next after high school? At NBCC, you can apply early as a Grade 11 student. This gives you a head start and a better chance of being "First Qualified, First Accepted" into your program of choice. Applications for Grade 11 students open on April 1st. Please visit here for more information.

Affordable Education
NBCC offers one of the most affordable post-secondary options out there. Every year, hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships are available—some just for students entering NBCC directly from high school.

College and University: Why not Both?
NBCC has many pathway agreements that allow you to transfer NBCC credits to a degree program at university. Some agreements allow you to complete a two-year NBCC diploma and have it count as up to two years of a four-year university degree.

Programs for Every Interest
Whether you want to work on a construction site, in an office, in a lab, or outdoors, NBCC has over 90 programs to choose from!

Hands-on Learning
Most NBCC programs include work-integrated learning, like a work practicum, clinical, or a co-op placement. You’ll take what you’ve learned in our classes, shops, and labs and apply it before you graduate.
