Information Sessions

Career Night PictureSome academic programs at Mount Wachusett Community College have specialized admission processes.  The best way to learn about these academic programs is to attend an Information Session.  At these Information Sessions, an Admissions representative will provide an overview of the admission process, financial aid opportunities, and guaranteed transfer process through the many MWCC articulation agreements with Baccalaureate colleges and universities. You will also learn about the variety of services available to our students including career and academic counseling, services for students with disabilities, free tutoring, and educational assistance available through our Academic Support Center.

Check out these upcoming Information Sessions:
