MCC has given me so many opportunities that I can graduate high school with my associate's degree already completed! They work closely with local universities, so I can easily transfer my credits when I finish my bachelor's degree. The entire MCC program has been beneficial and simple for me to get through my basic gen-ed classes. I highly recommend MCC to people who are unsure of what they want to major in, people who want to save lots of money on classes, or even people who just want some extra knowledge from a local affordable class. The program works very well with people if you ask for help and it has overall boosted my academic career which will lead me to a bright future!

Dominique - 05/08/2024

I think it is a great school! Especially for those trying to get pre-requisites out of the way or even those trying to get certificates. They have tons of opportunities, and not to mention scholarships. I was involved in their dual enrollment program where I received my associates at the end of high school, and I feel that has really helped me in college. I feel like anyone who is considering it should do it.

adam - 10/08/2019

amanda - 10/08/2019

The college is very up beat and pleasant. Everyone is here to learn. The welcome area has a shop, vending machines, board games and puzzles for all to play and interact with. I did on my first day I ever visited the campus. The impact of new friends is huge and very welcoming for me. Also I like how there is charging station all around the schools for phones and laptops. There always access and availability to check out a laptop, computer and even for Mac users. I am eager to learn because of the atmosphere this college has.
