Transferring to MCC? Excellent choice.
Thinking of making the move to MCC to continue pursuing your goals? Well, you’re not alone. Last year, nearly 1400 students transferred into MCC from colleges inside and outside Western New York.
As you know, transferring to a college is different from applying to one. And you definitely want to be sure your credits transfer into MCC, so you can make the most of the time and effort you’ve put in so far.
