Meet the MCC Ambassadors

Kennedy Boliver, Montour, IA:

I chose MCC because it's close to home and way more affordable.

I like that MCC has smaller classes and you get to know your teachers and classmates better.

I am a sophomore at MCC and is an education major. I chose to be an education major because I love kids so that is definitely my favorite!

I grew up in the Marshalltown area. My parents are divorced and I have four siblings. My hobbies are anything in the arts, hanging out with friends and playing volleyball.

My advice for incoming college student is to fill out more scholarship applications! Also going to a smaller college saves money!

I plan to transfer to UNI after my time at MCC.

 

Luisa Noronha, Brasilia, Brazil:

MCC is a great place to start for me. Coming from a different country, it allows me to get an affordable education.

What I like best about MCC is how welcoming everyone is and the environment.

I am a sophomore earning my AA degree. The thing I like about my major is how broad it is.

I live with my parents and brother back home and miss them a lot. At MCC I work as an RA, Student Ambassador and I'm a captain for the Women's Soccer Team.

My advice for college-bound students is to get things done right away.

After MCC I plan to transfer to a good 4-year college that also has a competitive soccer team.

 

Ehser Paw, Georgia:

I didn't really hear about MCC until my brother told me about it. My final decisions were based on the fact that he said he would pay my tuition and because I liked the mascot.

What I like about MCC is how they include everyone in anything that they do.

I am in my sophomore year and am majoring in Business. What I like about my major is that I get to learn new ways to look at math.

I grew up in Georgia and I have 5 brothers. I love reading and writing. I am the president of the Multicultural and Anime clubs, Vice President of the Student Senate and work as a Student Ambassador and TRIO.

My advice to college-bound students is don't put to much on your plate and find time to have fun. Enjoy life while you can cause once you finish your education you'll be stuck.

When I finish at MCC I plan to transfer to UNI or Iowa State. I have also considered going back to Georgia.

Ireland Sebetka, Grinnell, IA:

I chose MCC because of the price, staff and all of the resources MCC offers. I also love that it feels like home with so many friendly people.

I love how helpful the staff is at MCC along with the small class sizes. It makes it easier to get one on one time with your professor.

I am a freshman and my major is Pre-vet. What I like about my major is that I lived on a farm so I have loved being with animals. Showing livestock throughout my life made me want to work with animals, which is why I love being on the Pre-Vet track.

I am a part of the MCC volleyball team.

My advice to college-bound students is plan early. Look at all your options and see if they have the resources for you. Make sure it's your perfect fit!

After MCC I pan to transfer to Iowa State for Vet school.
