Metropolitan community college Reviews

Horrible experience at this school! I met with an advisor when i started and they enrolled me in the WRONG classes and set me back a whole YEAR!! Now its time for graduation and somehow they deleted my application on accident? or it was lost? I was almost denied the option to walk! My name wont be in any brochure or information for the graduation. Happy to finally leave! Tired of all the issues. I would check into a different community college if I were you!

I think previous commentators discredit themselves when they spell "college" and other simple words incorrectly in their review statement. Basic sentence structure is also important. If you can have that disposition, you don't want to learn. You want a piece of paper to validate yourself. Other schools mentioned can offer you that. MCC offers an education. It means something to get a degree from this institution. It's not a participation award, it's something you earn through hard work.

I love going to this school. Its so new and well kept that I feel like I'm home when I'm using the computers or being helped by the great staff. This place is amazing!

I love this new campus and the instructors as well. However, the financial aide office needs to brush up on the people skills. You would think that the students that fund the school would be treated with a little respect. You guys are QUICK to take a payment but work slow as hell when it comes to the students needing assistance.

I have already posted how HORRIBLY this financial aid office is run and how RITA, specifically (and among others), is completely unhelpful, rude, and incompetent. This is a follow up for anyone in need of a decent/well-run school (even though anything would be a step up). I have since transferred to Iowa Western and have had zero problems and nothing but good experiences. I already finished a Summer semester there and the financial aid process was fast and the school required no additional or unnecessary information from me. It's ridiculous how Metro's financial aid office refuses to help their students in need. I don't know if they get paid more for giving out less financial aid, but if not they are just lazy. I have been to four colleges and this is the absolute worst. I really hope you have restaffed RITA and most of the financial aid office. I could go on forever, but choose IOWA WESTERN. And FIRE RITA!!!!!!! SHE IS HORRIBLE!

Liked the teachers and my classes. However, the financial aid office is HORRIBLE. It felt like they were working overtime to make sure I didn't receive any financial aid. Filled out everything I needed to, brought the required documents. They told me that because my mom lives with her boyfriend, I have to PROVE they are not married, which is obviously ridiculous. However, as requested, I brought them my mom's license and social security card, which showed her correct last name. But, even though I was told that those would be absolutely all I needed to present in order to finish my financial aid requirements, it still wasn't enough! They wanted to set up a "meeting" with my mom to make sure she wasn't married. I'M NOT EVEN HER DEPENDENT. And I was not rewarded any finanical aid because of this. It was nearly impossible to get a hold of RITA in finanical aid, who was in charge of these issues. RITA WAS RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL, ARGUMENTATIVE, INCOMPETENT, AND COMPLETELY UNQUALIFIED FOR HER POSITION. Please consider restaffing.

The organizers of the 26th annual Fort Omaha powwow did an EXCELLENT job today! Largest crowd ever seen in the 7 years I have been coming to this powwow! Excellent planning of having a "white man" contest, which was a funny addition to the powwow activities! Nothing was broken today! Keep improving on it!

Community College is a great option for getting your education at a lower price. However, I am extremely upset with Rita the financial aide director. She was supposed to get my financial aide request processed at the beginning of the fall semester started and NEVER did. She told me to start classes and that she would get my paperwork processed so I could get books and do my courses. I followed up with her via email and tired to call her and got her voicemail and her assistant every time. I now cannot register for classes this up coming semester and I now have to pay the school for classes that I couldn't finish due to not being able to get books without my loans/grants. I am very upset with her lack of professionalism. I now don't know what to do. Thanks Rita.

MCC as far as the teachers I experienced were pretty great! I enjoyed the classes I took! What I didn't enjoy was anything that had to do with the administration side of things. Getting in to see a counselor, getting help with financial aide, and now I am being charged full price for a class I had to drop due to dropping it 7 days past the census date. I could understand some sort of penalty, but to be charged the full price for a class I am not taking is ridiculous. I am so glad that the last class I need for my associates I can take else where while working on my bachelors. I am so happy to be done with the rude and money hungry school this is.

Started down the path to a bachelor's degree here and knocked out my first two years here. I've never had any issues with the instructors or staff in the student services center, cafe or book store. I love this location, the landscaping is always on point and all areas are kept very clean. Overall I've always had a great experience here.
