Nashua Community College (NCC) is a public community college in Nashua, New Hampshire. It is part of the Community College System of New Hampshire. Enrollment was 1,366 students in fall 2024, 75% part-time and 25% full time.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable, flexible path into the workforce — with median debt of just $7,833 at graduation and a majority of students attending part-time, this school is built for working adults balancing real-life responsibilities. The net price of about $15,026/year is reasonable for a community college, though median earnings of $40,000 a decade after enrollment suggest this works best as a launchpad — whether into a career or a four-year transfer — rather than a final destination.
