Getting Started
Your first step is to fill out an admissions application. Applications can be completed in several convenient ways: online; by completing a printed application and returning it; or in person. You will find access to the online and printable applications under step 1 of our 6-step process of becoming a MCC student.

Costs and Facts
Tuition and fees are low (only $159 per credit hour plus fees) and the class sizes are small. The environment is student-centered and student life is very active.
We encourage students to submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) if they are looking for financial assistance. Once submitted, students can access their MCC-specific financial aid package via the college’s student information portal, myCommNet.
Applicants are required to provide proof of high school/GED or college completion, immunizations and pay a $20 application fee.
