Great school to get a quick degree at! Super friendly staff, always having events (I never really participated in but still good options!) Although it's right off Dort Highway in Flint, there are always people around, and campus security so it feels very safe.

I absolutely love Mott and it's instructors. They are there for their students. They are helpful and provide assistance with staying on the right track. Not to mention even out of district tuition is cheaper than baker or davenport per semester hands down. They have an awesome library, testing center, mathematics empowerment center. They care!

Its an extension campus so there's not a whole lot to do but overall its a great place to be.

Been attending here for a while. Awesome campus. good location for everyone. Right off multiple expressways. Food is decent. Parking is mostly free except one lot. Professors are a hit or miss. Find an advisor and stick with them

Great school!

I really enjoy my experience at Mott when comparing it to other community colleges in Michigan I've taken classes at. The resources available help you succeed no matter what your distance from an educational environment is. The advising is second to none compared to other 2 year institutions. Plus, it is very affordable if you don't receive finaid.
Overall 4.2
Lose or forget anything, just ask security to help you. Affraid to walk to your car at night when leaving classes, security is always willing to help and so nice about everything.

Staff members do not have a clue of how to do their job, I have had so many set backs due to their errors. I can't wait until I am done with Mott. Poor location and Don't feel safe nor do I feel safe leaving my vehicle parked at their facility, that is if you can even find a parking space!
Overall 1.5
Can't wait to transfer! Good for students right out of high school, but 2 semesters is enough for me. Good luck with admissions, advising, and registration it takes minimum of an hour just to be seen.

Just what you'd expect for a community college in Flint, MI.
Overall 1.6
I spent 7 years trying to get a 2 year degree. They cancel important classes that you need to get your degree. A complete joke. Most of the teachers are useless to help you. I gave up and went to a different college that is actually HELPING me! What a concept!
Overall 1.8
There is a huge problem where professors are concerned. In my 2 years at Mott, I have experienced some of the worst professors; uncaring, uneducated, under-qualified. We are paying for an education and the school seems to have forgotten that. Better to not offer a class than to have students pay to be uneducated and fail.
Overall 1.8
Homeless people walking through the halls and rummaging through trash cans, groups of extremely loud and yelling people moving through the halls like icebergs, not to mention the decor and buildings either seemingly pulled from the early eighties or trying way too hard to be 'cool and hip'. Education isn't terrible, but the place needs work.
Overall 1.8
They lost my scholarship checks as well as my Financial Aid paper work. I was supposed to graduate with a degree took all the classes and now have to fight the college to get my degree, because I am Missing a class, even though I passed that class they aren't giving me my tech degree.
Overall 1.9
Used to be much better, but now falling to greed and exclusively catering to minorities rather than the student body as a whole. Dual-enrolled students are incredibly disruptive and nobody is there to rein them in. Deans and leadership refuse to take action with bad professors. Avoid unless you have no other choice in schooling.

Advisors are horrible, have to go back more then once to wait in line.
Overall 2
Just horrible they don't work wit you very well, and nobody that works there ever seems to have any idea of their own policies, and information is almost impossible to get.
