  5. Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!

    It's a small campus that works well with the Academic progress i've made and more opportunity for one-on-one education with your professors. It also is a good transition college back to UVA-Wise when I am finished with MECC. They work with each other to help students transfer into a 4 year program at UVA to further education. I like that I will have the opportunity to be at the University because of choosing MECC.

  6. What's unique about your campus?

    The best thing about my school is probably the cost of tution and how every member of the staff does their absoulute best to help students. i want to be a radiology doctor so starting off at mecc is going help me save lots of money in the long run. The staff is another reason. They do their best at advising you about what each next step needs to be in order to advance and be what youve always wanted to be!
