Miami Dade College Top Questions

What are the academics like at your school?

Natalia

As a freshman I wish someone would have given me a reason to do service hours the first semester instead of saying it's only extra credit. A student who is passing without needing extra work never bothers to go out of their way for the extra point unless it's a written work.Service hours are actually fun to earn if you find the right group to work with.

Professors at MDC typically get to know you. You can study as much as you want. It all depends on you. Some students are there because they couldn't get accepted anywhere else, others are there to get an education.
