Melissa - 04/17/2020

I find it a very nice environment to attend school. The staff are incredible helpful and they make everyone feel secure and supported! I have had wonderful experiences with the admissions and advising staff, they were so helpful when it came to registering for classes and making sure I met all the requirements to be successful.

Svetlana - 11/10/2019

I went to this school for 8 years for two associates degrees only because it was the closest college in the area. Advising always had problems, the employees were leaving constantly and this is the reason why advisors constantly were in training and gave wrong information. I, myself, took classes that I don't need. I also met students who had classes they don't need because of mistakes in advising team.

William - 07/25/2018

I like the atomosphere even though I've visited the main campus a couple of times. The staff is very helpful and everyone that I meet there are very kind and helpful! Somethings can be confusing like their website for instance or not getting answers that I would like to know but whatever.

  4. What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

    I wish that prior to going to Mount Watchusett Community College I was aware that you recieve more financial aid if you attend as a full time student rather than a part time or half time student. The amount of credits directly influences the amount of financial aid you recieve per semester. I spent the first two years of my college career working full time and attmepting to pay off my debt on my own. I believe if i had known what i know now when i had first entered college my GPA would be much higher.

Your education is the most important aspect to your future career goals. You need to stay determined and have a positive attitude. Try to talk to your advisors if any questions arise.
