New Method College (abbreviated to NMC) was a secondary school located in Kowloon City, Hong Kong. Its stated mission is "to recognize each student as an individual".[1] It is the fourth school of the same name, with the first one built in 1951 on Hong Kong Island. It was also the first school to participate in the Direct Subsidy Scheme. It was announced that the school would close in 2012 due to a chronic decrease in enrollments. The former campus at 25 Man Fuk Road now houses Stamford American School Hong Kong.
The college had a small pool of notable alumni who have made their names in politics and the entertainment industry.
