For Parents and Support People

First-time college students face a variety of challenges like meeting new people, cultivating successful study habits, navigating the college environment, and developing a greater sense of independence. You can play an important role in helping your student succeed by understanding what your student is going through and being aware of policies, procedures, and information about MCC and the college process.

Explore these opportunities to learn about MCC programs, resources, and services for you and your student.

Parents and support individuals are welcome to attend any New Student Orientation (NSO) events with their students if their schedule permits. While students are engaging in the planning and registration phase of the orientation, a special presentation will be provided for parents and support people at the event.
