What Students Are Saying

If you need to be in a big city, and be around a lot of people all the time, this school is not for you. You have to learn to love the atmosphere here at Highlands. I know Albuquerque is not that big of a town, but it is way bigger than Las Vegas. Once I got over the fact of the town being so small, I fell in love.
Stephanie from Albuquerque, NM
This school is recommend it gives you a sense of security. The small town that surrounds the area is very welcoming to new students. You could always see the securities going around keeping the area very secure for anyone.
