    Am learning a lot

    At Mott, most of the students are there to learn their basics and then move on to a bigger better four-year university. It makes Mott sound like a lame little stepping stone, but I love Mott. It has smaller class sizes, even for basics, and the teachers are awesome. You occasionally get the teacher that thinks they are the only class you have, but if you can manage the work, you can do it.
    Am enjoying being here

    Mott is a smaller college, so it has a small campus and small classes. To me, that equals less walking, and more one-on-one with the teachers. I like it that way, and I am glad that I had a chance to avoid the giant classes that have over 400 students. Mott also has a fancy restaurant in the main building, and it is like going to a high class restaurant, but costs less. They also have all different kinds of clubs for students to join, and I am very disappointed with myself for not joining any while I was here.
    Bang for the buck

    A community college like Mott is definitely the best college to go to when you are short on cash. You get the classes for almost 70% or more off from the big time universities, and even better is that they transfer to almost every college. So you take the same classes for thousands less.
    Tips for prospective students

    I suggest just taking the basics and not going into the electives type classes, like Forensic Anthropology. Almost all of the basics transfer perfectly, but the electives are different at each college and your electives might not transfer to the next college.
    Great for these types of students

    Mott is best for students with not a lot of cash. Some students are fresh out of high school and do not want to leave home yet, while others are going to college for the first time after 10 or 20 years out of high school.

    Did learn a lot

    I was quite surprised on how much I learned here considering it's (generally speaking) a 2 year school. I only went here to get my basics done but overall I learned a lot to help get me through.
    Did enjoy being here

    The parking isn't the best and the process of enrollment into the school and the process of class registration is a rigorous one indeed. But it's definitely worth it considering I saved myself roughly $20,000 by getting my basics done here.
    Bang for the buck

    The price is without doubt the best aspect of this school. I'm no wealthy person and I was able to pay everything off out of pocket. As stated previously, I saved myself roughly $20,000 on classes. I'd highly recommend starting at Mott if you are planning on transferring to another college in Michigan. Transferring credits gets difficult when trying to transfer out of state.
    Tips for prospective students

    Deadlines catch you off guard. Get in the school and get registered for classes A.S.A.P. If you delay, you'll have to wait long hours to register for classes and can easily get stressed out.
    Whatever you do, STICK WITH IT! I've seen so many people back out of this school because of the difficult processing.
    Great for these types of students

    People that are looking to transfer in state and are looking to save tons of money on pre requisite classes. Good luck!!

    Am learning a lot

    Mott Comm College. Not worth any money spent. The staff are complete idiots (Flint/Main Campus). It took 4 hrs to register for my classes. The staff give you run around b/c not one of them knows anything. They dont care either. they just say go over there or I dont know. Wait 20 mins in one line then they give you some b.s and send you back to the where you came from for another 20 min wait. FOUR HOURS of stupidity and hassle. I gave up and walked out. Not taking another class at MOTT ever again. MCC gets an F- Mott fails every test. Again, the staff is HORRIBLE and are bothered by having to any work.
    Am enjoying being here

    Flint MI, I hope you dont take any night classes b/c when the sun goes down is when the rapists and killer appear in the shadows. Flint is not a good environment. The staff are lazy.
    Bang for the buck

    Overpriced per credit hr for comm college, also hidden fees. The staff are horrible people.
    Tips for prospective students

    Find another college b/c MOTT is HORRIBLE for sooooo many reasons.
    Great for these types of students

    Find a different college. Mott sux.

    Will learn a lot

    Mott Community college is a great school. Its the top community college in the State of Michigan and on eof the top community colleges in the United States. For students who will start off at Mott for the first two years, that's a great choice. You will be learning alot about the major that who will want to persue. The good thing about Moot is that you will het all of your basic classea out of the way. And going to Mott for the first two years will get you ready for a four year university when you transfer. Overall you will learn many new things at Mott, and after Mott you will truly be prepared to transfer after completing two years.
    Will enjoy being here

    Get registered for classes early, especially if you are going for the fall 2011 semester. Classes fill up quick. The campus at Mott Community college is great, its a great environment. Also Mott now has dorms, they share dorms witht the U of M flint, Baker and Kettering. The dorms are called the River Front resident hall, the prices are great, for a single room it's only $3,000 a year.
    Bang for the buck

    Mott is very affortable. That's the great part. Tution is not that much, so you will not have to worry about taking out a big loan like you would at a four year unuiversity. You will save lots of money. You can save around $15,000 at Mott Community College. Its very good to start off here for two years then transfer to a four year university
    Tips for prospective students

    Just make sure to get registered for classes early, they will fill up quickly. Get up to the campus early and do all the required things that you need to do.
    Great for these types of students

    Mott is great for all students. Anyone can come here and have the right to recieve their college education. Its great for anyone that wants to start off here then go on to a larger university.

    Am learning a lot

    I have only been going here for half a year however it has been really great. I have learned a lot in my classes and my professors are very involved and understanding. They teach in a way I can understand and in a fun way. One of my professors brought in visual aids, an apple, and my whole class got to enjoy a fresh apple.
    Am enjoying being here

    I have found that Mott is very friendly not only the professors but the students to. A lot of the time someone will hold the door open for me or I'll see someone do it for another. There are classes at different buildings so you can schedule some classes to the best place of your convenience.
    Bang for the buck

    At universities tuition is so expensive but at Mott it's cheap and you get great education and professors. However books will be books and prices will be high and some low.
    Tips for prospective students

    check out all your options
    speak with advisers/counselors/financial aid
    go to class
    if the class is on main campus show up early because parking isn't great
    Great for these types of students

    low income
    only going for a few years

    mott community college offers a wide variety of programs with a very hands-on staff committed to each students individual success. their newly refurbished center for financial aid is very helpful and orderly, making payment a breeze. the helpful, free services at each students disposal, such as the learning center, makes going to school here fun and easy.
    Tips for prospective students

    if you are a prospective student the best tip i can give you is to apply early. the classes get filled up fairly quickly so having a jump start on your financial aid and other payment options is a must. definitely don't wait until the last moment to buy your books from the bookstore either because it gets packed full of students right before classes begin.
    Academic Rigor

    mott community college may be a secondary school but the classes are challenging without pushing you beyond your capabilities. they offer an a variety of ways to take classes as well such as online classes and open entry classes. you will learn everything you need to know in order to effectively complete your degree and pursue your degree.
    Dorm Life

    mott community college at this time does not offer dormitories.
    Food and Dining

    the cuisine offered is first rate and very affordable. it makes staying for a full day of classes completely worry free not to mention delicious. there's a quaint little cafe you can go have dinner in that's absolutely amazing.
    What to do for fun

    mott community college has many fun activities for the entire student body to participate in, as well as very helpful but fun job fairs and fundraisers.
    Bang for the buck

    their bookstore has every bit of supplies you could need as well as plenty of helpful extras to ensure your success in each class you take. then you can sell back your books for a reasonable price and now their is the option of just renting your books. mott community college has very pleasing rates that really makes going to school here a good choice for someone looking for a first rate education but unable to dish out thousands of dollars per semester.
    Clubs and Activities

    they are very well known for their successful sports teams as well as the clubs individual students can start that match whatever your interested in.
    Campus Safety

    it is very safe, there are security officers everywhere. if your taking night classes the security guards don't hesitate to offer you an escort to the safety of your car if you feel uneasy too.
