I love MCC, its teachers, the people, the clubs, everything! It's a community college, so there is no living on campus. However, they provide many services for students such as military, disability, roommate matching, and more. The teachers heavily emphasize that they understand that students have jobs, children, or just a life altogether outside school, so they are super understanding. All tutoring services are free and there are so many resources for students. The class sizes max at around 20-30 students, so the teachers provide personal attention. If you are eligible, I highly recommend looking into the Presidential Honors Scholarship. It will pay for your tuition (up to 15 credits per semester) for the entire time you are there. Books and other costs you have to pay separate, but if you get more scholarships, you can get even those covered. With the Honors Scholarship, FAFSA, and other scholarships I've received, I not only have all my school covered, the leftover money I receive from scholarships go straight to me. I am quite literally being paid to go to school. So my advice is apply, apply, apply! Lastly if you can, I highly recommend doing clubs. I went to clubs expecting me to go to one meeting and never returning, but I ended up becoming a club senator and being a part of the MCC student senate. If you're a woman, Women Rising Club is a great club with empowerment. Plus sometimes, they give out tickets to events for free. I went to see the Phoenix Symphony extremely close to the front for free! The ticket prices were $84 for the cheap ones, much more for the sit that I got. I am in M.E.C.H.A (for latinos) and Friendly Colors (for lgbtq). I've met incredible people and I'm friends with so many different people from these great clubs, and they are just so much fun!
HORRIBLE. I was a student in American sign language with James Rice. He sexually harassed me outside of class and I was forced to withdraw early before graduating. The same thing has happened to my classmate and friend and her family is going to be suing mesa college for not helping or protecting her. don't take James rice's class. he is a sexual predator!!!!
I am a returning student that has had an amazing transition back into the classroom. Everyone goes above and beyond to make sure I understand what is expected of me and to make sure I receive all the help I need. From the financial aid office to the academic advisors, I am always able to easily get ahold of someone to answer my questions which is a very important thing for someone who has been away for so long.
It is a good option when it's your only option. Otherwise, I'd prefer to be at Arizona State University. Class registration is confusing and very different from my previous experiences with other colleges. Classes and professors are usually good, but it's the luck of the draw.

Don't freak out! Calm down and take your time. Really, focus on yourself and clear your mind of everything that is stressing you out at the moment. Don't let others influence your decision on what you should do next. Do whats best for you and once again, FOCUS ON YOU. Even though I'm from the future I can't tell you how things are for me then. Hopefully you will see the way things will be much sooner than what it took me. But I will say with the upmost clarity that things will get better. Chin up, chest out and smile! Because great things will come your way, you just have to be positive. Oh, and take up Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu now, its an awesome sport you will learn to love and if you do it now you'll be a purple belt by the time your're me. Peace.
I have had very helpful classmates who are willing to go the extra mile to get that A they want in the class.
Mesa Community College is a cost efficient transitional school to attaining a four year degree where there are smaller class sizes and more flexibility for independent students who are working their way through college.
When I've gone to speak with an advisor in the past, there have been a couple who seem like they do not know what they are talking about and do not help me. It's frustrating and I get confused, luckily there are really good counselors who can help me and make things very clear.
I try not to brag when ever possible but when I do, and I cannot lie--I do, I tend to brag that I am not paying anything for classes. I receive the Pell Grant and because tuition is relatively low it is completely covered. I believe that MCC is the biggest community college in the country, if it is not then I know it is the biggest in Arizona, that is brag worthy.
Something unique about Mesa Community College was that it is a commuter school, since there are no dorms on campus for students to live alot of students drive their own vehicles to class. I always find it interesting though to see in class where all your classmates are driving from everyday to get to class, you really see the commitment in some students by the travel time that they take in order to come and learn on campus. Since no students live on campus there is an apartment complex across the street.
College is about throwing yourself outside of your comfort zone. Don't be afraid to do just that. Talk to people you don't know. Join clubs and activities you otherwise wouldn't have tried.
I really can't think of a kind of person who shouldn't attend this school. There are exciting opportunites for a great variety of associate degrees as well as transfer programs for those who want to obtain a Bachelor's degree. This school offers a wide variety of campus classes as well as evening and online options.
The types of students who should consider Mesa Community College are those who are non-residents and need to gain residency for tuition. This is a great way to earn credits and not pay a ridiculous amount of money. Students who also cannot afford Arizona State University or the University of Arizona should consider MCC because they have great transfer programs.
MCC i would say is best known for their nursing program, it is one of the top ranked in the state of AZ.
Night classes are offered which is nice because I work full time right now.
The lack of resources is the most frustrating thing about my school. I am persuing dental hygiene, and have taken many biology classes over the past semsters. It would be helpful to have cadaver labs instead of having to use just the limited amount of models or books we are given.
I love MCC, I have wonderful teachers, and they are always willing to help me. I just wished that the advisers made more of an effort getting in contact with students.
Very flexible, I'm only an art student so I wouldn't know about the science, math or engineering departments but they only want you to succeed. They is their goal in life, they want to push you because they know it'll be good for you. My art teacher constantly challenged us and I am actually very grateful for it. It also weeds out the students that don't show they're not one hundred percent. The academics are superb.
The ISO group and The basketball team.
The most common stereotype of students would include Nerds and Stoners, maybe Jocks but no Frat Kids.
