SUNY Monroe Community College Reviews
Rating 3.78 out of 5 658 reviews
Rating 5 out of 5
My overall experience with MCC has been very positive. The courses offered are high quality. There is flexibility with modality of courses available. The school provides a wide array of resources available to help students succeed in both their personal and professional life including childcare assistance, personal wellness, and financial counseling services. For the most part there is consistency among professors regarding communication, course format and grading but every once in a while, you experience a professor that is unconventional and inconsistent.

I love the people at the school. The professors have pros and cons, some are much better than others. I was hesitant to attend at first but I’m glad I ended up here.

Great opportunity to get an associate's degree while working toward a bachelor's degree at at four year school. The transfer office is very helpful. Monroe Community College is very connected with surrounding SUNY schools and have several 2+2 programs that set students up to succeed. The campus is nice and clean with multiple different areas for students to gather.
