Please note: Some of the links in the table below lead to different sections of this page; some links take you to separate pages.Welcome!
Student Services provides high-quality, student-focused support, assistance, and services responsive to individual needs in a caring environment that enhances success and empowers students to maximize their potential.
The administration, faculty, and staff regard student services as an integral part of the total educational program at this college. A wide range of student service programs helps to meet the needs and interests of the student body. Every effort is made to know students as individuals and to serve their needs individually.
Activities and Sports
Students at the college often organize their own activities guided by faculty advisors and supervised by the Vice President of Student Affairs.
The college offers a variety of both intercollegiate and intramural sports for students. We recognize the value of providing athletic programs to facilitate student interaction outside the classroom. Our main objective is to allow students the flexibility needed to properly balance their interest in athletics with academic success. Student athletes must matriculate and enroll in at least 12 credits per semester and must maintain satisfactory progress. The determining factor for athletics depends on student interest. The college encourages students to participate in intercollegiate, intramural, or club sports, which may include soccer, basketball, baseball, hockey, downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, volleyball, and golf. The college is a member of the Northern New England Small College Conference (NNESCC).
The Student Senate shares in the responsibility of promoting and coordinating student events and activities, and is responsible for allocating and disbursing student activity funds to support extracurricular activities/sports.
Top of PageAcademic Advising
Academic advising is available to all matriculated students. The academic advisor helps students register for courses and approves all registration decisions, including course add/drop changes and withdrawals. The advisor assists students in identifying academic and personal resources on campus, and helps students select and choose various program options. Advisors may help students with decisions about career goals or further education. The more clearly students define and communicate their own goals, the more productive the student/advisor relationship.
Campus Bookstore
The Campus Bookstore is a private enterprise and not subject to state rules and regulations. Normal sales hours are from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, Monday through Thursday; evening hours as posted.

Counseling
The college provides academic and career counseling services to all students. Counseling services assist students in successfully meeting academic goals and are not an appropriate substitute for long-term therapy. Students are encouraged to speak with the college counselor who works with them to identify and eliminate barriers to success. All counseling is confidential. Students may refer themselves for counseling services. The college also makes referrals to appropriate local health and social service agencies. The counselor implements the college's early intervention efforts for students experiencing academic difficulties in their classes.
Food Service
The White Mountains Community College cafeteria offers reasonably priced light breakfasts and hot and cold noon meals weekdays while classes are in session. Hours are posted and are convenient to students. Meal tickets, sold in $50 increments, are debited at the time of food purchase. No refunds are allowed for unused portions of the meal ticket. For more information, contact the Business Office, Room 100. The College Fare operates evenings while classes are in session and offers an array of sandwiches and grill items, desserts, and beverages.
Top of PageHousing
While housing is the responsibility of the student, the college provides a comprehensive list of housing available within close proximity of the college. Students should finalize their housing arrangements 4-6 weeks prior to the beginning of the semester. Each community has a good rental market and a better choice of housing is available to students who act early. Students should understand completely the rental agreement and live up to the terms of the agreement. Good relations between students and landlords ensure housing opportunities, at reasonable rates, to students in the future.
A wide variety of rental housing exists. More information may be obtained from the Admissions Office. The college maintains a list of available housing with tenant qualifications (i.e., male/female, smoker/nonsmoker) and costs. Rents average around $450 per month.
Honor Society: Phi Theta Kappa
Students who have completed a minimum of 12 college-level credits with a 3.5 grade point average are invited to become members of Phi Theta Kappa National Honor Society for two-year colleges. The society was established to maintain and perpetuate the qualities of scholarship, leadership, service and fellowship. Initiation ceremonies are held during the academic year. Only matriculated degree students, day or evening, are eligible. Certificate and professional certificate students are not eligible.
