  In three sentences		Middlesex is right for you if you're just starting out. Middlesex is your school if you want to save money for the same or better education as a University at a fraction of the cost! If you want to go through rigorous Biology courses, Middlesex and Professor Wallace is where you want to be.
  Tips for prospective students		Take advantage of all this affordable school has to offer! Look at the financial aid department for new scholarships and/or grants.
  Academic Rigor		With this school, you truly get OUT of it what you put IN to it. Take advantage!
  Dorm Life		Best part is you can commute from home here!
  Food and Dining		Food is sub-par! ;P ack a sandwich!
  What to do for fun		We pay a small student activities fee for various activities throughout the year! Take advantage of the learning and fun! It's YOUR money!
  Bang for the buck		CHEAP tuition for the same classes as the Universities!
  Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus		None
  Great for these types of students		Career oriented students looking to shave some cash off their student loan obligations especially is you need a few classes before getting your Bachelor's or going to Grad school!

  In three sentences		My experience at this school has been very positive. The professors are tough but fair, and I enjoy the challenges. The school is small but that makes it more personal and I find opportunities are more available because of this.
  Tips for prospective students		Make an appointment and visit the school. A community college is a great way to start your schooling. Costs are lower, you are getting a more personal touch, and the opportunities are boundless. This school is one of the top community colleges which gives you great transferring power.
  Academic Rigor		The professors challenge you and prepare you for the next part of your schooling. Middlesex Community College is a respected school and opens opportunities to transfer to well respected universities.
  Food and Dining		There is a small cafeteria.
  What to do for fun		Middletown is centrally located in Connecticut. Downtown Middletown has expanded and improved. Wesleyan University in in the same town and has many events the public can attend. There is a movie theatre, coffee shops, restaurants, town events, and so much more.
  Bang for the buck		This is a great school to get your required classes in for a reasonable cost. Going for the first two years at a community college saves you a tremendous amount of money and you are getting a great education at the same time.
  Great for these types of students		Students not sure of what direction to go in their education, transitional students, older students. It is very diversified.
  Clubs and Activities		Phi Theta Kappa, Student Senate, School paper, Sustainable earth, and so much more.
  Campus Safety		Security is always around. They have booths and cars and are constantly making rounds.

  Did learn a lot		I absolutely learned a lot! Any student who applies him or herself to their studies at Middlesex will get the education he or she deserves. The professors are dedicated, well-educated, and know what they are talking about. However, I did not only grow academically, but personally as well. MxCC encourages individuality and independence.
  Did enjoy being here		This fall, I am transferring to another school, and it is bittersweet. I have loved every bit of my time at Middlesex Community College. Never have I met people who were so dedicated to their work and their students as the professors and faculty at MxCC. All departments were strong, and every professor I had went out of his or her way to help me personally succeed.
  Bang for the buck		I felt as though I got an education that was fairly close to any private school standards. The only thing that seems to be lacking for the money spent is activities. I personally love learning experiences outside the classroom, and MxCC did not provide quite as many as I would have liked.
  Tips for prospective students		Register early! While the professors are fantastic in general, there are always a few adjuncts who are not up to par. Registering before the last minute insures that you will get full time teachers and not just part-time staff.
  Great for these types of students		MxCC is a great place to start out your education. It is also a fabulous college for those students who thrive on personal attention, small classes, and a close community.

  Am learning a lot		I am taking the required classes, and I plan on transferring. So, the classes I'm taking are generally simple since I'm a freshman in my first semester. I am learning a lot of different skills, and the information is very valuable.
  Am enjoying being here		I go to the Meridan campus, and everyone is so friendly and nice. The Meridan campus lacks the real college campus feel, and a library. The main campus has a very helpful library and library staff though.
  Bang for the buck		You get your require classes finished for much less money than other colleges. I would strongly recommend that every college student starts at a community college, mainly to save money!
  Tips for prospective students		My number one tip would be to learn how to effectively manage your time. Do not forget to look at the schedule each teacher gives you and study for midterms and final in time.
  Great for these types of students		If you like to ask question Middlesex is for you. The school also provides tutoring for certain classes. If you want to go to college but you need a stepping stone to the whole college experience, you should go to Middlesex.
