A Uniquely Caring Culture

Being part of the 91直播视频community means being involved. We call ourselves 鈥渞ight-sized,鈥 meaning we have the resources of a large university but our campuses still maintain a small-college vibe. We鈥檙e a pretty tight-knit community where everyone is known and valued as an individual 鈥 in fact, our uniquely caring and inclusive culture is something visitors and first-year students often can鈥檛 help but comment on.

The Way Life Should Be

You鈥檒l also find that Nor鈥檈asters like to take full advantage of living in Southern Maine, with easy access to the ocean (our Biddeford Campus is literally on the beach), the mountains and lakes of central Maine, and vibrant arts and food scenes in downtown Portland, just minutes away from our Portland Campus for the Health Sciences.

Because 91直播视频is a small school, it is easy to dive into the community and connect on a very personal level with both professional staff and other students.鈥
