Hello and Welcome to Your MCC!

Welcome to Muskegon Community College, a dynamic institution serving Muskegon, Newaygo, Oceana, and Ottawa counties, as well as students online around the state, nation, and world. We continually strive to be a higher education leader in student success, community engagement, and innovative academic programming.

Muskegon Community College is on the move. Thanks to the generosity of the Muskegon County residents and support from Lansing to Washington D.C., our MCC continues its most significant fundraising and facilities upgrade since the opening of our current main campus in 1967. Our state-of-the-art Science Center, Sturrus Technology Center, Health and Wellness Center, Automotive Center, Ottawa Center, and Art and Music Building were constructed to provide you with the best resources in a highly competitive learning environment.

Just as importantly, MCC is a leader in student success, recently named the top community college in Michigan and among the top community colleges nationally by BestColleges.com and Schools.com. This is no surprise as you, our students, have performed on stage in New York’s famed Carnegie Hall, set world records, and won state, regional, and national championships on athletic fields and in the classroom. We stand committed to remain nationally and internationally competitive by connecting our exceptional faculty and staff with new state-of-the-art facilities.

We invite you to tour our campus, meet with our dedicated instructors and caring staff, and learn for yourself how MCC can help you get anywhere you want to go. Whether you are here taking courses to transfer toward a higher educational degree or to retrain for the jobs of tomorrow, our credits will help you succeed.

Take the first step today by calling us at (866) 711-4622, or by visiting www.muskegoncc.edu. We appreciate your interest in Muskegon Community College and look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Regards,

Dale K. Nesbary PhD, President Muskegon Community College
