I graduated from Mt. Pleasant High School in 1988. At that time, students in the top 10% of their class were given the incredible opportunity to attend NTCC tuition-free until they completed an associate’s degree. My parents encouraged me to take advantage of this, especially since I had a vision condition that brought financial and medical challenges for my family. Though I was initially frustrated—since many of my friends were heading straight to four-year universities—I agreed to visit NTCC...

My name is Laurencio Velazquez Jr. from Mount Vernon, TX, but you may call me Junior. While attending MVHS, I was honored to be chosen as a recipient of the Mount Vernon Rotary Club Motivational Scholarship to NTCC. At the time, I had no clear idea of what I wanted to do, but I knew I wanted to graduate from college — so much so that I chose not to purchase a high school ring, saving that milestone for college...

I started here as a dual-credit and then full-time teaching student. I completed my AAT and transferred to TAMUT. After I completed my undergraduate degree and taught grade school for a little while, I found that my family needed better benefits than the public school system could offer. Enter NTCC (again :)...

My journey with NTCC began as a dual credit student at Chapel Hill. After graduation, I took a few general education classes before stepping away for a short time. In 2011, I returned with a clear goal in mind—pursuing my AAS in Medical Assisting. From the moment I started the program, I knew I had found the right path. The instructors were not only knowledgeable but also genuinely supportive, always invested in our success as students...

My name is Jason Moss I graduated from MPISD in 1998. At the time, I didn’t know where I wanted to go or what fields I might be interested in studying. My counselor told me I could apply for the MPISD scholarship at NTCC and suggested I write a one-page essay and submit it. I had never really been to a college campus before, and that opportunity led me to choose NTCC to begin my journey...
