Great school for saving money and getting your general pre requisites! The education resources and career guidance is great! Also, the culinary arts bistro food is amazing at Fort campus! Definitely recommend eating there sometime! :) Giving clubs a 4, because I wish they had more days/times available for students to attend them. :(

MCC has given me an amazing opportunity to discover what I am interested in before fully committing to a 4 year degree. The staff I have been lucky to encounter offer real world insight and have gone out of their way to help me succeed.

I absolutely love Metro! It's a great environment, with great people. It's an amazing place to get your AD before transferring to a more expensive four-year program. I've had nothing but great experiences here, and plan to get more involved in clubs and social activities.

This schools finical aid office is the worst Ive ever had to deal with. I read that before I started school here and thought it wouldnt be a big deal but i regret ever going here. I would switch schools just because finical aid sucks that bad but Im almost done and Im transferring anyways this summer. The teachers are okay. Its a 50/50 chance.

Professors are uneducated and ignorant about campus resources and college policies.

The Omaha campus is next to the stock yards and thus it smells terrible around the campus. And it is not in the best neighborhood.
