Learn about your Admission Counselor:

Hey future Cardinal! 

I’m Kasia, and I can’t wait to help you discover everything that makes North Central College such an incredible place to call home. Transferring colleges is a big step, but don’t worry, you’re not alone. I’ve been right where you are, and I’m here to make this process exciting, seamless, and maybe even a little fun! 

I transferred to NCC from College of DuPage in 2022, and it was one of the best decisions of my life. Whether you have questions about transferring credits, want to know what life at NCC is really like, or just need someone to cheer you on, I’ve got your back every step of the way. 

Favorite thing about North Central: North Central becomes your second home, and there are so many opportunities to take advantage of! The support here ensures that you grow not just academically, but as a person, and those life experiences will stick with you forever. 

Words I use to describe North Central students: Curious, determined, adaptable, involved, and successful are a few!

Why did I choose to become an Admission Counselor/staff member at North Central? I transferred to North Central myself, and my experience here was so incredible that I wanted to stay and help others have the same amazing journey. I know transferring can be intimidating, but there’s so much support at North Central to help make the transition smooth and successful. 

Favorite Naperville restaurant: If you’re visiting, you have to stop by Gia Mia for some seriously delicious food.  

Favorite season in Naperville: Naperville has such a special vibe. Fall is definitely my favorite with all the colorful trees and cozy campus feels, but summer is just as awesome. Honestly, no matter the season, being here kind of feels like you’re living in a cute TV show. 

Advice to students: Dream big, take chances, and soak up every opportunity North Central has to offer! Whether it’s joining clubs, attending events, or exploring leadership roles, there’s something here for everyone. Don’t hesitate to ask questions, try new things, and embrace this exciting journey. And remember, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
