North Central Michigan College is a community college based in Petoskey serving close to 3,000 students in Northern Michigan. It has had a great impact on our region and has awarded more than 9,300 degrees and certificates since it began in 1958. North Central offers 38 career certificate programs and 24 associate degree programs. Like all community colleges, North Central presents a viable, cost-effective alternative to universities, with tuition rates lower than the rates charged by most other small community colleges in Michigan. Furthermore, Emmet County residents pay the lowest rate, because the college receives more than one-third of its funding from property taxes paid by Emmet County residents. North Central Michigan College is located just a short distance from Little Traverse Bay - a perfect setting for both learning and recreation. Bayfront Park, located on the bay, offers hiking and bike trails and spectacular views of the sunset year-round. Downtown Petoskey is home to many stores, restaurants and cultural events. Not far away are Petoskey's Winter Sports Park, Boyne Mountain, Nubs Nob and Boyne Highlands where students and the community have many opportunities to enjoy the area's winter recreational activities. On the southern edge of campus, North Central's Natural Area offers 195 acres of natural beauty and wildlife. North Central also has centers in Cheboygan and Gaylord and offers classes in Charlevoix County. North Central students may take classes at any or all of these locations.
