Great stepping stone college and affordable. No option for a bachelor's or Me asters degree. The professors are willing to help you make the next step and encourage you to continue to further your education.. I enjoyed my time here and because of the gelfp I received through my mother's death last year. I am ready to move to Bridgewater State to continue on for my BB bachelor's degree!

Jayda - 07/19/2023

Massasoit was a good first college to start at. I was able to work can do full time school. and I got to make my own schedule. the only thing that was my least favorite was that the program I had was all online .the diversity of classes is vast. there is some interesting like Death and Dying with Dr. Prosphere !

Carine - 01/12/2022

My opinion is that there are great opportunities and chances to succeed at this college. Amazing people and nice professors who work to bring good information and enough time to complete class work/homework. It is great to hangout with your friends and enjoy the food.

Jason - 12/17/2019

Massasoit is a great starting point, the professors care and are willing to help you learn, their educational resources are great and the canton campus is a special place to me. The ARC offers very helpful and free tutoring from staff and students alike. On campus jobs like tutoring are available and are a great resource. I have yet to have any professor that i truly despise and my colleagues are just as kind! overall i recommend this college strongly to anyone seeking higher education.

    Your destiny has been a small high school without staff or opportunities for a student like you, one without access or exposure to choices of career and educational opportunities. In your naturally unobtrusive and quiet state , you have not been tugged into the light of opportunities to ponder your strengths, interests, and goals in the framework of your future. Take the ticket of your wonderful high school education and use it for admission to all the local two- and four-year colleges. They will want you, believe me. Beg, borrow, be boisterous in getting to them all. You will be amazed and in awe of what you will find --- adults whose entire focus is to help you figure out what you're good at and what you like and how you can make a great future out of them, financial resources to get you there, and a helping hand with all the details that get you through the doors of the college of your choice. Learn, learn, and learn some more, then walk into your future and see where it takes you. Enjoy every step. It's all about the trip. (Every choice you make will be the right one.)

  4. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    The worst thing about my school is that a lot of the students there are not there for the right reasons. They go to say that they went to college after high school and because it is cheaper than going to a state college. Most of these same students are the ones receiving financial aid for reasons such as being a single teen parent or never having worked before but the same students will skip, withdraw from classes, or just do not care about doing well in the class. Yet I can't get any money for school.

  10. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    People who just want to go to school for no other reason but to say that they went to college or have nothing better to do should not attend Massasoit or any another school for the matter because it is not fair. Not only would it be a waste of the teachers time, but it would also be a waste of other students time as well as the individual. Students who are serious about school will have a better learning experience without the distractions of apathetic individuals. Plus, it allows more money to be available to others.

  11. What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

    I tell them that the cost is really affordable. They have very high school costs because they choose to go to expensive universities with an undecided major. Whereas at my community college you could take the same classes at a more affordable rate. That is until they decided what they want to major in. Then they could transfer to recieve a higher education.
