Meet the MCC Ambassadors
Kennedy Boliver Kennedy Boliver, Montour, IA:

I chose MCC because it's closer 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 freshman 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.

 
Marisol Lopez Silva, Marshalltown, IA

I chose MCC because it was close to home and MCC feels like home. Also, it really is a good start for me and my family financially.

What I like best about MCC is the welcoming staff. I also like the diversity at MCC.

Marisol is a sophomore earning her AA degree. She plans to transfer to Iowa State and major in psychology with a minor in criminal justice.

What I like most about my major/area of study is being able to learn about others by a simple facial expression and being open-minded.

I have two younger brothers and they are currently attending MHS. I played soccer throughout high school except for my senior year due to the pandemic. This is my favorite hobby.

My advice for college-bound students is to be involved and go for something that you will enjoy later in life! Be open to opportunities.

 
Alasan Mbowe Alasan Mbowe, Banjul, Gambia:

MCC is the first place I have been in the USA. It feels like home and I feel like it's the right fit for me as a student.

The thing I like best about MCC is the people. There is always someone to help you out as a student and person for whatever you need.

I am a sophomore at MCC and am a Liberal Arts major. What I like best about my major is it prepares me the best for my major when I transfer to a 4 year school.

I am from Banjul, Gambia. I have a little sitter and one of my hobbies is watching movies. I am a Residence Assistant in student housing.

My advice for college students is to be the best version of yourself as a student. Respect and make good use of your time.

When I leave MCC I want to transfer to a 4 year school and get a degree in pharmacy.

Chlose Johnson Chloe Johnson, Marshalltown, IA:

MCC was the best option for me because it was cost friendly and close to home. It was perfect in between high school and a university.

I like that MCC is part of a smaller community and sllows me to have more of a connection with my peers and professors.

I am a sophomore because I took classes in high school through MCC. I am finishing some general education courses to get my AA.

The best part about my major is interacting with the community and creating new plans and ideas.

I grew up in Marshalltown and have two sisters. My hobbies are singing and family time.

My advice to incoming college students is to fill out lots of scholarships.

After MCC I plan to transfer to ISU to get a degree in Marketing.
