Best school I have attended and as an older student I have attended several. My instructors are awesome. I love the small town feel of of campus and I feel like every student has the same opportunity to succeed.

MCC is the best community college in the state of MS. The teachers and staff are great. Only downfall was through the financial aid office. A few of the staff members in financial aid were very rude, inconsiderate, and non professional. After presenting tax information, they still digged for information that was not there.
Bad reviews

As someone who has been to other community colleges, MCC ranks lowest. The office of admissions is awful and acts as if it is a chore to help you when you have a question. Some of the professors do not know how to control a classroom whatsoever, but to be fair this is college and they shouldn't have to control a classroom. Overrated in my opinion.

MCC has a terrible administration when it comes to students concerns or affairs. The mindset seems to be that of a kindergarten experience. Students are treated with indignity and contempt. There is a complete lack of concern for student success. On the other hand, the instructors are some of the best in education.

This school is in need of improvement of staff and policies. They do not offer the best quality of care for student's mental well being, they absolutely do a poor job at documentation and have a well known reputation to mess up documents and not informing the student. Also clubs and activities only appeal to at least 20% of the student pop.

Teachers, Instructors, and Professors are awesome! The school administration is very very poorly organized and lacks concern for critical student matters. This especially applies to admissions and financial aid offices.
