Hi! I have a 200.000 sf. university building with about 25 % of office space and 50% of learning space (open and closed spaces), the rest is circulation etc. I am a little insecure on which system to pick, NC or schools. It says that schools is mainly for K-12 schools, but it says, that it can also be used for higher education facilities. What would you consider best? Thanks,

Juliane, I think you could pick either system here. I personally think that LEED-NC is a better fit for a university building with mixed uses like this.
