REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingI visited many colleges and found this one to be the most comfortable fit for me. A small (but not too small) college, where I feel that I will not get lost in the crowd academically. I am looking forward to coming to MVCC!
Gabrielle from Parish, NY
MVCC is a great school for those who want a good education for less money, also because you can figure out what you want to do before attending a four year school. Has very many classes and majors to choose from. It can be a bit confusing and difficult for people that don't understand how college works.
Kaitlin from Clinton, NY
The teachers are great, I've yet to have one who wasn't interesting and knowledgeable in their field.
Jackie from Little Falls, NY
Mohawk Valley Community College is a wonderful collage. I am a returning adult going back to become a RN. I though it would be a challenging, yet I was accepted with open arms. From the staff, to the students, to the activities that they offer!
Stacy from New Woodstock, NY
This college is very geared toward learning disabilities. I found their financial aid to be great- I've been there for three years and I have been covered for everything including books. I am impressed with the staff, never have gotten into a tangle with them- ever!
Charlotte from Ilion, NY
I believe this is a great school with professors that know what they are doing in the fields that they teach. They have been in the field for many years as professionals and most of them are continuing their education.
Jennifer from UTICA, NY
I'm looking forward to coming to MVCC in fall 2011.
