Heartland Community College students helped their college rank above the national average when it comes to student satisfaction.

These results came with the Ruffalo Noel Levitz Student Satisfactory Inventory, which is a national survey that asks higher education students to rate the level of importance and satisfaction on various aspects of their school.

Heartland offers this every three years and nearly 500 undergraduate students took the survey in the spring of 2015.

The survey showed Heartland’s top strengths include campus safety, knowledgeable faculty, a helpful website and a variety of course offerings.
