We know that students decide to attend MCC for many reasons. Maybe you’ve been to college and are now returning. Maybe this is your very first time attending college. Maybe you’re ready to make that career change you’ve been seriously thinking about.
Wherever you are in life, MCC’s flexible schedules and customized programs will help you earn a degree on your terms. Our Admissions Office is dedicated to giving you all the support you need to begin. And MCC’s support services team is committed to helping you succeed thereafter. Financial aid assistance, free tutoring, course delivery options, academic advisement and career counseling can help you balance the commitments and responsibilities of adulthood with the rigors of college.
You may even get college credit for what you already know. That's one way to save time and money!
1/3 of MCC students are older than 25
“If it wasn’t for MCC’s flexible schedule options, I wouldn’t have been able to go back to school.”
