Good reviews

Madison College is an amazing school. So many opportunities for degrees or to transfer. So affordable. Textbooks are included in cost of tuition, so don't need to pay extra. All teachers I have had really want to see you succeed and do well. I cant think of anything bad to say about this school.

Absolutely loved Madison College! Gave me an amazing education with teachers who are there for you and a job related to my degree. Best college ever and am definitely recommending the college to others and my siblings.

MATC is a college that supports its students for whatever their needs may be and sets them success. It provides so many different opportunities and different areas for each student to explore.

Their food is top quality but some meals can be too salty. Other than that it's much cleaner than my high school.

I know it may seem as though this review was not very well thought out due to the consistent high ratings, but it is quite fantastic. Minus the challenge to communicate with advisors, and the reputation ("where do you go to school" "Matc" "Oh, cool..."). This school is incredible and gives me the opportunity to save money and get education.
Overall 4.6
Madison College/Madison Area Technical College is underrated for value and education. I previously attended a four year university and returned to MATC for a second degree. The quality of your education for your money is 100% worth it. Classes are designed to be at a four year level to transfer seamlessly.

It feels like glorified HS. There's no sense of school pride. Everyone just goes to class and goes home or to work. Very hard to make friends here, as pretty much everyone is just going to be transferring in 2 years. It's a good option if you want to save money though.
