Welcome to Mesa Community College!
Thank you for choosing MCC. We have much to offer students to enrich their college experience, all of it created to help
you reach your education and career goals.
∙ Student Success
. Student Support services such as tutoring, financial aid, and even child care are all available to
help ease the transition to college, provide a nurturing environment conducive to learning, and support each student’s
college experience. A full list of student support services is available in this handbook.
∙ Programs, Degrees and Transfer
. Whether you’re with us to pursue an Associate degree, Career and Technical
Education training, or university transfer, MCC has you covered. We have transfer and articulation agreements with doz-
ens of colleges and universities, including ASU, UofA, NAU, and GCU (find a full list of MCC’s transfer partners at
). We have an award-winning cadre of faculty and staff to help guide you every step of the
way, from admission to graduation.
∙ Social Media
. We take pride in keeping communications open to all students. Our extensive social media pres-
ence across multiple platforms is designed to keep you up to the minute on activities and issues that affect your academic
and social life. Our social media focus also has a unique community convergence, since many of the promoted events are
free and open to the public.
∙ Be Involved in Your Education.
Research has proven that the more involved you are as a student, the more pro-
ductive and successful you’ll be. Engage with your fellow students and our community by participating in study groups,
service learning, student clubs and organizations, and on campus sports competitions, drama productions, and other
events.
MCC is ready to help you meet whatever challenges you may face in your academic life, and we’ve been honored for
our commitment to student success. Just this past year, The Aspen Institute named MCC one of the top 150 community
colleges in the nation, and Accredited Schools Online named us one of the best for online courses.
Everything we do at MCC is created with the students’ best interests at heart. We are so pleased you chose MCC as your
college. Together, let’s achieve your dream!
Sincerely,
Sonya Pearson, Ph.D.
