Hi folks! Wanted to give a quick heads up to those who may have left a voicemail within the past week for tech support. Our system had some issues so we’re only getting the messages now.

Rest assured that we will be getting back to you as soon as possible

I applied to the Funeral Services Fall 2026 semester. At this point I have to accept that I was not accepted into the program as classes start in about 2 weeks, but I never received any response back on my application at all, not even a rejection. My application was sent in on time, I did receive the email confirming that my application was complete, I have left a voicemail and sent a couple emails to the selective admissions office asking if there was an upcoming date people would be notified, but I got no responses there either. I’m still going to try to show up in person tomorrow even though I’ve accepted the situation, but I was just curious if this has happened to anyone else before? I understand things happen, but it’s just really a shame to not even get rejected. And if anyone thinks there was a point in the process where I did something wrong definitely please let me know, this is my first time going through this process and I am an adult so I don’t have any guidance counselors or anything haha.

I’m looking to carpool from Halifax downtown to Ivany campus Mon-Fri. Please let me know if you can help me.

I applied pretty late into the year for the IT Programming course, both for an in person and virtual spot. I got accepted for a seat and had accepted it through the MyNCSS portal just to be safe of course. But an employee had emailed me before with their own NSCC email instead of the admissions email, I checked the email and the person on the employee registry to make sure they were legit, asking if I was still interested and everything. But today I got a text message from allegedly this same employee, they aren’t asking for any information but they do know my student number. Is this now an official means of communication for onboarding students now? I can’t find anything about it online which is just making me skeptical but I want to be sure.

Hi! I was wondering if anyone has taken the Practical Nursing program at NSCC in Truro and would be willing to share their experience. I’m trying to get a better idea of what the program is actually like.

I would love to hear what your day to do schedule looked like. How was the work load? How much time did you spend studying?

For anyone who has completed the program, how did you find the instructors and teachers? Were they supportive and willing to help?

Would be great to get some information on this!!

Hey everyone, I'm about to pick out a laptop to use for the IT Database Admin course, and it's just hit me. I kinda really hate using Win11.

Does anyone know if any of the Microsoft-branded, built-in Win11 malware is required for class? I'm liable to atomize the thing if I interact with OneDrive or Copilot, so I'd really prefer to debloat before classes start if possible.

Thanks in advance, looking forward to your input.

Has anyone taken the role at any campus on residents of the community assistant? I’m thinking of applying for it due to the benefits but not sure if it would be wise to balance between the course load and this work?

I’m looking to buy bedsheets for my upcoming semester at the NSCC COGS campus and they say that the beds are “extra large full”. What dimensions are these and would I be able to find sheets that fit?

I am currently logging into My NSCC portal under my finances to try and pay my first semester tuition but there is no outstanding payments. For my program starting in September the first term fee is due August 7th but when I enter the “make a payment” the “what I owe” is 0.
Is this correct? And do I have to calculate this myself

Two questions 1. When are new students able to apply for our student id’s and 2. Does the upass on the ids work for both the bus and the ferry
