Love this campus so much!!!!
Overall 4.8
MCC is one of the best community colleges in Texas. The location is beautiful, my Baylor friends are jealous. The professor are typically sweet and so are the rest of the administration.

I've only been going to this school online since COVID I guess. It's been GREAT! They send very informative information through the school email. Things about scholarships, food panties that they have on the campus. I feel like this school really cares about their students as whole.

A beautiful campus. Professors that want you to succeed with some being truly exceptional. Sociology, Philosophy, A&P 1&2, and math professors. A lot of resources to help with your course work too.

Couldn't have asked for a better first college
Overall 4.6
Charming and elegant but not overdone. Missing good restaurants. Tech is great and modern, especially for a community college as affordable as MCC. Lots of clubs and events going on.
Overall 4.6
As an out of district student I am very happy with my experiences at MCC. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They always give clear answers to your questions. If you email any department they will respond in 48 hours or less.

Although many call MCC 'high school 2.0,' skipping out on community college would definitely be a mistake. The staff is friendly, professors are willing to meet with you outside of class, and the on campus resources are so helpful! I have met some of the most humble, smart, and diverse people at MCC and wouldn't trade my two years here for anything

Not a serious school.
Overall 1.5
It feels like you're still in high school. It is WAY TOO EASY to have college in the title. I don't think I've been challenged at all while taking classes here at MCC. Professors are pretty incompetent for the most part, with some exceptions, and there's no motivation to work hard. This place definitely does not prepare you for an actual University

gross people, pretty campus I prefer Baylor
Overall 1.9
Nice people here but it definitely is not the place to go if you want to eventually get a degree. Classes are so easy that it seems you're back in 10th grade again. Doesn't prepare you at all for what it's like going to an actual University. Don't recommend this place.
