International Student Support


At NBCC we recognize the need for support as learners from around the world join us for their learning journey. You are not alone on this journey, our Student Success Coaches are here to help and assist learners in their transition to NBCC and encourage growth and development throughout their college experience.

We seek to empower students to identify and achieve their educational, personal, and professional goals through coaching sessions and connecting them with resources within and beyond NBCC.
