Northern New Mexico College

Northern New Mexico College (NNMC) is located in Espanola, New Mexico. This public college was founded all the way back in 1909 in order to help educate Spanish-speaking members of the community and it currently serves over 1000 students. The school still primarily serves rural communities and is a source of education for the eight Native American communities in the surrounding areas. Students will be able to earn several different associate’s degrees as well as many certificates at this school.

NNMC has been educating nurses since 1973 and it continues to provide top-tier educational opportunities to everyone who steps through the doors. The associate’s degree program is accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN). The baccalaureate program is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education.
