Office for Adult Students
We, at MVCC, recognize the desire of adults to begin or continue their education. In addition, we recognize that their goals and needs differ greatly from a traditional-aged student. Therefore, supportive services are in place to help you make the transition to college as smooth and as stress free as possible.

Testimonial
"I was laid off from my job after almost 10 years. I thought it was the end, but thanks to MVCC it turned into a new beginning. I had always thought about going back to school. I guess I was just scared to after being out for over 20 years. I had heard MVCC had an excellent Nursing program and I thought, Why not.
The Staff at the Access and Retention office were a Godsend. Janet Visalli really got things going for me. Everyone here has been so helpful and the teachers are wonderful. They want you to succeed as much as you do. If you are willing to put in your time, the teachers are more than willing to help you. I'm so glad I chose MVCC. A lay off can start new adventures in life, don't let it put up a road block in yours. I, God willing, hope to graduate with a degree in Nursing in 2006. Thanks MVCC!"
