Register Now for Online Classes This Summer at MCC

A leader of online education for over 20 years, Middlesex Community College offers high-quality instruction at a fraction of the cost. Middlesex faculty have a history of teaching award-winning online programs – an immersive experience that uses specially designed curriculums. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the college is expanding its online offerings this summer. MCC’s online Summer Quickstart Session and Summer Sessions 1 and 2 start May 26.

Taking online classes at Middlesex ensures students can remain safe and close to home. With circumstances challenging across the world, MCC has a solid foundation and a proven track-record of success to guide students on their academic paths using online learning. This success is grounded in the college’s faculty, staff and the systems in place to make online education a seamless process.

“I am incredibly impressed with how our faculty have been so quick to find creative solutions for helping students to finish the semester despite the current conditions and constraints,” said Matthew Olson, MCC’s Dean of Liberal Arts. “The majority of our faculty have started using a variety of web conferencing tools so they can talk in real-time to students, delivering lectures and answering questions. They have done this through support from our Educational Technology department – headed by Roxanne McCorry – and through impressive peer support.”

At MCC, there is a place for everyone – returning students can keep on their paths; high school-aged and dual enrollment students can take college-level courses and transfer credits to a four-year college or university; college students home for the summer can keep on pace with their academic goals and finish general requirements; and furloughed and out-of-work students can get back on their feet, enjoy flexible schedules, and become workforce ready.

"Summer is a wonderful time to take an online course,” said Cathy McCarron, MCC professor of English. “I have taught the Short Story course for many years and have enjoyed having a wide range of students from Middlesex and four-year institutions from across the country. Students can learn on their own time and still be collaborative by engaging with their peers in a stimulating, interactive online environment."

MCC is approved by the New England Commission of Higher Education to offer fully online programs and has received multiple awards over the years. Most recently, the college ranked No. 41 in the country on the 2019 list of Best Online Associate in Business Degree Programs by Intelligent.com and the Online Hospitality Management Program ranked no. 3 in the country by BestColleges.com in 2018.

The college understands that the COVID-19 crisis has financially burdened many students. To ensure student success, MCC’s Student Accounts is offering summer payment plans for the first time. In addition, the college will waive all $20 enrollment and $10 late payment fees.
