After having graduated from MCC i truly miss it, it was probably the best college experience I had in my life. The professors and faculty are very friendly. Some comments are complaining about parking and it's not even that bad, there's like 5 lots and not to mention parking is free. Great and amazing college.

The parking is horrible

The traffic around campus can be a little overwhelming at times. Some classrooms are too cold. The food should be better for the prices they charge.

My rating is for the Bedford campus, although i went to both. Even though i live in Lowell, it was worth the extra trip to go to the Bedford campus instead. It's a much nicer campus and I enjoyed it there a lot. I'm an engineering major and within my first semester alone i managed to get internship offers. They gave me a lot of scholarships too.

I love Middlesex Community College. After I graduated I transferred with UMASS transfers program and had no issues, middlesex made sure all my classes were transferable and I was able to continue my degree. Sadly I did not like my experience at Umass Boston, so now I am back at Middlesex finishing my second associates which will be in psychology.

This college is really great! The professors are amazing and the campus looks amazing it's very relaxing and easy to get around. Some lady in the bookstore is the only drawback she's got a bad attitude. Other than that Amazing school!

Nothing short of a nightmare from ALL staff and instructors in the nursing program. I wish I could be more detailed, but guidelines do not allow.
Overall 1.1
This college sucks. It's not even the teachers fault, it's all the students who go here. Whether they didn't know what to do next in life, or their parents are forcing them to go here, there are plenty of underachievers. I have never felt so unmotivated by being around other students. Theses students will give you hostile looks for no reason.
Overall 1.3
The problem with this school is the people who go there. The students are all unmotivated. In some of my classes, students sit in the front row and sleep. What is the point of showing up? I can't wait to leave this school and have a real college experience. The only pro to attending this school is that I save a ton of money.

I am not too proud to have gone here, to be honest. The parking is atrocious and I would full-on have to miss class because there was no handicap-accessible parking. And multiple times when there actually was parking, it was being blocked by staff or other poorly parked students.
Overall 1.6
Parking blows. Teachers are either great or terrible. No in between. Make sure you check the rating of who you have the proceeding semester. Had I done that, I probably would have a much higher GPA. Lots of immature pupils at Middlesex as well... hey, it's a community college.
Overall 1.6
The parking at this school is awful. The fact that students need to come to classes 1 hour in advance to have enough time to find a parking spot is absolutely ridiculous. This school also loves to charge you random fees for no reason. Don't even go into the bookstore, I guarantee the woman at the front desk will rip you off. Never going here again.

Glorified High School

Its not a fast process, they are slow and rude at times. For adults going back its good, small. The book store is never open you need esp to find out the hours. If you take online prepare for the worst website ever! You log in every time you click a page! Annoying, and the night or weekend classes are way more expensive.

Welcome to the circus. The biggest collection of crazy people, teen moms, and lunitics you'll ever encounter. no one goes to class. air always smells like cigars and weed. kids mostly just sit around and play bucket drums or play basketball. if you go here you can write a book of hilarious stories. and the squirrels are crazy
