Colorado Northwestern Community College earned some national exposure
early last week, landing on Newsweek’s Top 50 community college’s list, which ranked community colleges based on whose graduates earn the most money.
Newsweek’s list, which was compiled by Stacker, comes at a time in which many students are seeking more affordable alternatives to four-year institutions as college student loan debt rises north of $1.68 trillion.
Community colleges often cost a fraction of what a prospective student would end up spending on a four-year degree, therefore making community colleges a viable financial option for many.
That’s where CNCC comes in.
